It is a Boc-protected derivative of the D-enantiomer of the amino acid tryptophan, in which a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group shields the alpha-amino function. It carries CAS number 5241-64-5 and the molecular formula C16H20N2O4.
It is used primarily as a building block in peptide synthesis and medicinal chemistry, where the Boc group provides selective amine protection. The D-configuration is valuable for preparing peptides and analogs with non-natural stereochemistry.
It is a protected amino acid with a molecular weight of 304.34 g/mol, typically an off-white solid. It is soluble in common organic solvents used for peptide coupling, and the Boc group can be removed under acidic conditions.
Store it sealed in a cool, dry place; refrigeration is often preferred for protected amino acids to maintain quality. Protect from moisture and strong acids, and consult the SDS before use.
