<h3>Overview</h3>
<p>Boc-O-ethyl-D-tyrosine is a protected amino acid derivative widely used in peptide synthesis. The core process involves protecting the amine group with a Boc moiety and esterifying the phenolic hydroxyl with an ethyl group. Its molecular formula is <strong>C14H19NO5</strong> and CAS number is <strong>120738-67-8</strong>.</p>
<h3>Application</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Pharmaceuticals:</strong> Synthesis of opioid antagonists and selective receptor modulators.</li>
<li><strong>Research:</strong> Building block for custom peptide libraries in drug discovery.</li>
<li><strong>Agrochemicals:</strong> Intermediate for developing specific enzyme inhibitors.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Precautions</h3>
<p>Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent hydrolysis. Handle with appropriate PPE as it may cause skin irritation; avoid inhalation of dust during transfer operations.</p>
