Description

H-Val-Met-Oh CAS NO 14486-09-0 is a high-purity dipeptide derivative, specifically the methyl ester of the Valyl-Methionine dipeptide. This compound serves as a crucial protected intermediate in advanced peptide synthesis, enabling precise control over chain elongation and side-chain functionality. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical R&D laboratories, biotechnology companies, and fine chemical manufacturers for the development of therapeutic peptides, research biochemicals, and complex organic molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block in the solid-phase and solution-phase synthesis of complex peptide-based active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Biochemical Research: Used as a standard or reagent in proteomics research, enzyme substrate studies, and metabolic pathway investigations.
• Cosmetic Peptide Synthesis: Employed in the production of specialized peptides for advanced skincare and cosmeceutical formulations.
• Fine Chemical Production: Acts as a chiral synthon for the asymmetric synthesis of non-peptide molecules requiring specific valine and methionine motifs.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Provides a reliable, high-purity starting material for university laboratories and research institutes conducting studies in medicinal chemistry and biochemistry.
