(trans-4-Hydroxymethylcyclohexyl)carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (Cat No.: R014669) is a protected amino alcohol derivative featuring a cyclohexyl ring with a trans-oriented hydroxymethyl group and a tert-butyl carbamate (Boc) protecting group on the nitrogen. This compound is commonly used as an intermediate in organic and medicinal chemistry for synthesizing peptidomimetics, enzyme inhibitors, or bioactive molecules. The Boc group provides stability during multi-step synthesis and can be removed under acidic conditions. Its defined stereochemistry supports applications in chiral synthesis and structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies.
