(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-L-valylglycine (Cat No.:I043020) is a protected peptide derivative where the amino group of L-valine is protected by a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group. This compound is commonly used in peptide synthesis to prevent side reactions during the formation of peptide bonds. The Boc group provides stability and allows selective deprotection at the right stage of peptide assembly. Boc-L-valylglycine serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of peptides and bioactive molecules, especially in research focused on designing therapeutic agents and investigating enzyme-substrate interactions in drug development and biochemistry.
