Tert-butyl N-[(1-aminocyclohexyl)methyl]carbamate(CAT: L027199) is a protected amine compound featuring a cyclohexylmethyl backbone and a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group. Appearing as a white to off-white crystalline solid, it is commonly used as an intermediate in pharmaceutical and organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of amine-containing drugs and bioactive molecules. The Boc group provides stability under a range of reaction conditions and can be selectively removed under acidic treatment, enabling stepwise synthetic modifications. Its cyclohexyl structure imparts conformational rigidity, making it useful in medicinal chemistry for optimizing molecular interactions and pharmacokinetic properties during drug development research.
