Tert-Butoxycarbonyl-DL-alanine (Boc-DL-alanine)（Cat No.:R030343）is a protected derivative of the amino acid alanine, commonly used in peptide synthesis. The Boc (tert-butoxycarbonyl) group acts as a protective group for the amino group of alanine, preventing unwanted reactions during the synthesis of peptides. This compound is essential in the creation of complex peptides and in the development of pharmaceutical agents. It allows for selective coupling and deprotection processes in peptide chemistry. Due to its stability, Boc-DL-alanine is widely used in both academic and industrial research for peptide-based drug design and other applications.
