This chemical is primarily used as a coupling reagent in peptide synthesis, facilitating the formation of peptide bonds between amino acids. Its high reactivity and efficiency make it suitable for solid-phase peptide synthesis, where it helps in the stepwise assembly of peptides. Additionally, it is employed in the preparation of complex organic molecules, particularly in the synthesis of amides and esters, due to its ability to activate carboxylic acids. The reagent is also valuable in medicinal chemistry for the development of peptide-based drugs and bioactive compounds. Its stability and effectiveness in various solvents further enhance its utility in organic synthesis workflows.
