Boc-L-threonine is an organic compound. It is a white solid that is soluble in some organic solvents such as dimethylthionamide (DMSO), ethanol and chloroform.
It can be prepared as Boc-L-threonine by the reaction of amino acid protecting groups.
One way to prepare Boc-L-threonine is to first react threonine with Boc acid through an acid-catalyzed reaction to form the corresponding Boc threonine ester, and then to obtain Boc-L-threonine through alkaline hydrolysis reaction.
It is a chemical and should be handled in a well-ventilated laboratory environment with appropriate personal protective equipment such as lab gloves and goggles. Avoid contact with skin and eyes, and avoid inhaling their dust or gases. In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention.
