Description

n-Bromoacetyl--Alanine CAS NO 89520-11-6 is a specialized bromoacetylated amino acid derivative, serving as a crucial building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its primary value lies in its reactive bromoacetyl group, which enables efficient peptide coupling and the introduction of functional handles for bioconjugation. This high-purity intermediate is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sectors, particularly for developing novel peptide-based therapeutics, diagnostic probes, and biochemical tools.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel peptide drugs and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Bioconjugation Reagent: Used to attach peptides, labels, or drugs to carrier molecules like proteins, antibodies, or nanoparticles for targeted therapies and diagnostics.
• Proteomics Research: Employed in chemical biology for studying protein-protein interactions and enzyme activity through site-specific modification.
• Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS): A valuable reagent for the controlled introduction of alanine derivatives with a reactive bromo handle during peptide chain assembly.
• Ligand and Probe Development: Facilitates the creation of high-affinity ligands, enzyme inhibitors, and fluorescent probes for biochemical assays.
• Material Science: Used in the synthesis of functionalized polymers and biomaterials with tailored peptide motifs.
