6-(Boc-Aminomethyl)nicotinic acid(Cat No.:L038585)is a protected amino-substituted derivative of nicotinic acid, featuring a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group shielding the aminomethyl substituent at the 6-position of the pyridine ring. This protection enhances stability during multi-step synthesis and allows for selective deprotection under acidic conditions. The molecule’s dual functionality—carboxylic acid and Boc-protected amine—makes it a versatile intermediate in peptide synthesis, drug design, and linker chemistry. Its pyridine core adds aromaticity and hydrogen-bonding potential, supporting its role in developing bioactive molecules, including enzyme inhibitors, receptor ligands, and pharmaceutical building blocks.
