This compound serves as a specialized intermediate in organic synthesis, incorporating protecting groups for selective manipulation of functional groups. It features a tert-butyl carbamate (Boc) moiety that protects the primary amine and a tert-butyldimethylsilyl (TBDMS) group that shields the hydroxyl group on the 3-position of the 2-oxopropyl chain. This structure enables precise control in multi-step reactions, particularly for the assembly of peptides, natural products, and pharmaceutical intermediates. The protecting groups are stable under a wide range of conditions, allowing orthogonal transformations, and can be selectively removed under mild acidic or fluoride-based conditions to reveal the free amine and alcohol without affecting the core scaffold.
