Description
N-Boc-(R)-Nipecotic acid is a protected chiral piperidine carboxylic acid offered at min. 95 % purity for peptide, medicinal and fine-chemical synthesis. Identified by CAS number 163438-09-3, it has the empirical formula C₁₁H₁₉NO₄ and a molar mass of 229,27 g/mol. The Boc-protected nitrogen and free carboxylic acid functionality make the molecule a versatile intermediate for amide coupling, scaffold elaboration and stereoselective routes to nipecotic-acid derivatives. Supplied in a 100 g pack, the material supports both exploratory research and multi-step campaigns that require a reliable (R)-configured building block. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH, this reagent integrates smoothly into standard Boc chemistry and solid- or solution-phase protocols. Its defined stereochemistry and protecting-group strategy help streamline purification and downstream deprotection steps. Research groups focused on CNS-related scaffolds, constrained amino-acid analogues or heterocyclic libraries can employ this grade as a ready-to-use chiral intermediate under conventional laboratory conditions.

Questions about N-Boc-(R)-Nipecotic acid
What is this article?
N-Boc-(R)-Nipecotic acid is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Amino acids & peptides, inside Biochemicals & reagents, in Microbiology lab supplies.
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.
A biochemical is a molecule of life, sold as a reagent: an amino acid, a sugar, a nucleotide, a lipid, an enzyme, an antibiotic. The difference from a bulk chemical is that the use is a biological one, and the impurities that matter are the ones that change that use. An enzyme is specified by activity, not only by mass. An antibiotic is specified by potency. Papers are on PubMed. Structures are on PubChem. Strains and lines that consume these reagents are at ATCC.
Which category should I open next?
