| Targets |
This compound does not possess a specific biological target; its primary function is as a chemical building block for peptide synthesis. As a phenylglycine derivative, it is used to introduce phenylglycine residues into peptides. The Boc group protects the amino functionality, allowing for selective deprotection under acidic conditions during peptide assembly. Amino acids and their derivatives have been commercially used as ergogenic supplements.

|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Commercial ergot supplements have been made from amino acids and their derivatives. They affect the release of anabolic hormones, the availability of fuel for activity, the ability to think clearly under pressure, and the prevention of muscular damage brought on by exertion. They are regarded as advantageous synergistic food ingredients [1].
This compound is not a biological agent and does not exhibit direct in vitro biological activity in a pharmacological sense. Its value lies in its chemical utility as a protected amino acid building block. Amino acids and their derivatives have been commercially used as ergogenic supplements, influencing the release of anabolic hormones and physical performance. Any biological activity would reside in the final deprotected peptide product, not in this protected intermediate. |
| ln Vivo |
Boc-Phg-OH is not administered in vivo as a therapeutic agent. It is a research chemical utilized as a building block in peptide synthesis. The final deprotected peptide product, not this protected intermediate, would be the subject of in vivo pharmacological testing. The compound is for research use only and is not intended for human or veterinary therapeutic applications.
|
| Enzyme Assay |
Non-cellular enzyme/receptor binding assays are not applicable to Boc-Phg-OH as it is not biologically active. Its use is in organic synthesis and peptide chemistry. A typical protocol involves its use as a building block in Boc SPPS, where the Boc group is removed under acidic conditions (e.g., TFA) to reveal the free amino group for coupling with the next amino acid using standard coupling reagents. The compound is a standard building block for Boc SPPS.
|
| Cell Assay |
This compound is not used in cell-based assays as a therapeutic agent. Its applications are in synthetic chemistry and peptide synthesis. It should be stored as a powder at -20°C for up to 3 years or at 4°C for up to 2 years; in solvent, it can be stored at -80°C for 6 months or at -20°C for 1 month. The product is for research purposes only and is not intended for human or veterinary use.
|
| Animal Protocol |
In vivo animal experiments do not involve Boc-Phg-OH as a test article. It is a chemical intermediate used in the synthesis of peptide-based drug candidates. If a researcher synthesizes a therapeutic peptide using this building block, that final deprotected and purified peptide product would be subjected to animal testing for pharmacokinetics, efficacy, and toxicity. The protected amino acid itself is never administered to animals as a test compound.
|
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Pharmacokinetic properties are not applicable to Boc-Phg-OH as it is not a drug. It is a small molecule (MW 251.28 g/mol) with the formula C13H17NO4. Its properties are relevant for chemical handling and storage rather than for systemic exposure studies. The compound is not designed to be bioavailable, as the Boc protecting group is intended to be removed during peptide synthesis to yield the final active peptide product.
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
The toxicity of Boc-Phg-OH is not extensively documented, as it is a research chemical not intended for human or veterinary use. As with all Boc-protected amino acids, standard laboratory safety precautions should be followed, including handling in a well-ventilated area with appropriate personal protective equipment. It should be stored at 2-30°C. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or other medical applications.

| Additional Infomation |
Boc-Phg-OH (N-Boc-L-phenylglycine) is a standard building block for the introduction of phenylglycine amino-acid residues by Boc SPPS. Phenylglycine is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that can be used to modulate peptide properties. The Boc protecting group provides temporary amino protection, which is orthogonal to other common protecting groups. This compound is not a pharmaceutical and has no clinical trials or approved therapeutic status.
