Introduction
(S)-N-Boc-3-aminobutyric acid is a compound with the following properties:
1. Appearance: colorless or yellowish solid.
2. Molecular formula: C13H23NO4.
3. Molecular Weight: 261.33.
4. Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents such as chloroform, dichloromethane and methanol.
The main use of (S)-N-Boc-3-aminobutyric acid is as an introducing agent for amino acid protecting groups in organic synthesis. By protecting the amino group on the side chain of the amino acid, it can control the reaction selectivity and prevent unnecessary reactions of other groups in the amino acid. In addition,(S)-N-Boc-3-aminobutyric acids can also be used in the preparation of polypeptides and in drug discovery processes.
The preparation method of (S)-N-Boc-3-aminobutyric acid is to use L-β-homoalanine as the starting material, and react with tert-butoxycarbonyl (t-Boc) acylation reaction, A t-Boc protecting group is introduced on the amino group of β-homoalanine.
When using (S)-N-Boc-3-aminobutyric acid, you need to pay attention to the following security information:
1. Avoid direct contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Appropriate protective equipment such as lab gloves and goggles may be worn.
2. In the operation should pay attention to the well ventilated laboratory environment, avoid inhalation of gas, vapor or splash.
3. Storage should be sealed in a dry, cool place, away from the fire and oxidant.
4. In the event of accidental contact or ingestion of this compound, seek medical attention immediately and provide the packaging container or label to a doctor for diagnosis.
Please note that the above information is for reference only and that proper laboratory practices and safe operating procedures must be followed when using and handling chemicals.
