Application

Reagent for the preparation of Boc protected amines.
Aminomethyl allene was prepared by reaction of Boc propargyl amine with formaldehyde, diisopropylamine and copper bromide as part of a series of Bovine Plasma Amine Oxidase inactivators.
Reagent for the introduction of the Boc protecting group.
Tris-Boc protected hydrazine allows preparation of Fmoc ester in a chromophoric reagent to monitor solid-phase aldehydes.

Automated Boc protection and deprotection can be done using Synple Automated Synthesis Platform (SYNPLE-SC002), Boc protection cartridges ((SYNPLE-B001), (SYNPLE-B002), and Boc deprotection cartridges (SYNPLE-B011)
Protection of alcohols as Boc derivatives via Lewis acid catalysis.
