Description

n-(Allyloxycarbonyl)-3-Aminopropionic Acid is a bifunctional organic compound featuring both a protected amine group and a carboxylic acid moiety. This structure makes it a valuable versatile building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists working on peptide mimetics, prodrugs, and specialty polymers.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Key building block for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and peptide derivatives.
• Prodrug Synthesis: Utilized in the design of prodrugs where the allyloxycarbonyl (Alloc) group serves as a cleavable protecting group for amines.
• Agrochemical Research: Intermediate in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Polymer Chemistry: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for creating functionalized polymers with specific amine-reactive sites.
• Bioconjugation: Used in the modification of biomolecules, such as proteins or peptides, for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Employed in the synthesis of probes and tags for studying biological processes.

Quality Control

Our n-(Allyloxycarbonyl)-3-Aminopropionic Acid is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, NMR, and IR spectroscopy, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to exclude moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents, strong acids, and strong bases.
