Cat No.

CEGZ-50004

Description

Nα-Boc-3-(1-naphthyl)-L-alanine is the Boc-protected form of the non-proteinogenic aromatic amino acid 3-(1-naphthyl)-L-alanine, in which the phenyl ring of phenylalanine is replaced by a 1-naphthyl group. The extended aromatic system increases hydrophobicity and π-surface area of the residue.

Applications

Used as a building block in peptide synthesis and medicinal chemistry for the preparation of aromatic amino acid-containing peptide analogues.

Product Overview

Naphthylalanine residues are incorporated into peptides to enhance aromatic and hydrophobic interactions with biological targets, and they occur in a number of bioactive peptide analogues used in pharmaceutical research.
