Description
Boc-L-Alanine, PEPTIPURE® is an N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-protected L-alanine derivative with a minimum purity of 97 %, intended for biochemistry and peptide chemistry. Identified by CAS number 15761-38-3 and empirical formula C₈H₁₅NO₄, the compound has a molar mass of 189,21 g/mol and carries EG number 239-847-8. The Boc group shields the α-amino function under basic and nucleophilic conditions while remaining cleavable under mild acidic treatment, making the building block a standard choice for solution-phase and selected solid-phase peptide routes. Its defined optical purity and assay facilitate controlled coupling reactions and subsequent deprotection steps in research laboratories focused on organic synthesis and biochemical applications.
This article is part of Amino acids & peptides, in Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents.

Questions about Boc-L-Alanine, PEPTIPURE®, min. 97 %, for biochemistry, 5 g, glass
What is this article?
Boc-L-Alanine, PEPTIPURE®, min. 97 %, for biochemistry, 5 g, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Amino acids & peptides, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
An amino acid or a peptide is specified by the sequence or the residue, the chirality, and for a peptide the purity and the salt form. L and D forms are different compounds. A trifluoroacetate salt and a hydrochloride salt weigh differently per mole of peptide.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents. The sub-category is Amino acids & peptides. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, Polymers, PEGs & silicones and Click chemistry, bioconjugation & synthesis reagents.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
