(S)-2-((tert-Butoxycarbonyl)amino)-5-guanidinopentanoic acid（Cat No.:M065297）is a modified amino acid derivative commonly used in peptide synthesis. The tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group on the amino group provides protection during peptide assembly, preventing unwanted side reactions. The guanidine group at the side chain offers enhanced basicity and is often used to introduce strong ionic interactions, making this compound valuable in designing peptides with specific biological activity. After peptide synthesis, the Boc group can be removed under mild acidic conditions to reveal the free amino group, enabling further functionalization and elongation of peptide chains.
