Boc-Tyr-OMe(CAT: L041181) refers to N-tert-Butoxycarbonyl-L-tyrosine methyl ester, a protected form of the amino acid tyrosine. In this compound, the tyrosine’s amino group is protected by the Boc (tert-butoxycarbonyl) group, while its carboxyl group is esterified to form a methyl ester (OMe). This protected amino acid is commonly used in peptide synthesis, particularly in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), where the Boc group prevents unwanted reactions at the amino site during chain elongation. The methyl ester provides similar protection for the carboxyl group, allowing selective reactions on the side chain or backbone. Boc-Tyr-OMe is widely used in the development of peptides and proteins in pharmaceutical and biochemical research.
