(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-L-valyl-L-alanine (Cat No.:I043022) is a dipeptide derivative in which the amino group of L-valine is protected by a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group, while L-alanine is linked to it. The Boc group prevents unwanted reactions during peptide synthesis, ensuring selective reactivity at the N-terminus of the peptide chain. Boc-L-Val-L-Ala is commonly used as an intermediate in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) and other peptide synthesis strategies. It is useful in designing peptides for research in drug discovery, enzyme inhibition, and therapeutic applications involving peptide-based treatments.
