This compound is primarily used in peptide synthesis as a protecting group for amino acids. The Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) group safeguards the amine functionality during the synthesis process, preventing unwanted reactions. The Aloc (allyloxycarbonyl) group offers additional protection, particularly for side-chain functionalities, and can be selectively removed under mild conditions without affecting the Boc group. The DCHA (dicyclohexylamine) salt form enhances the compound's stability and solubility, making it easier to handle and store. It is especially valuable in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) and in the preparation of complex peptides where selective deprotection is required. Its application ensures high purity and yield in the final peptide product.
