Product Description
tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate is a biochemical compound that may be utilized as a biomaterial or organic/chemical reagent for biomedical research.
tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate (CAS 75178-96-0), also known as N-Boc-1,3-propanediamine, is a protected diamine compound featuring a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) protecting group on one amine and a free primary amine on the other. With the molecular formula C8H18N2O2 and a molecular weight of 174.24 g/mol, it is a versatile building block in organic synthesis, particularly in peptide synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and PROTAC (proteolysis-targeting chimera) linker development. The Boc group provides chemical stability and allows selective deprotection under mild acidic conditions, enabling precise control in multi-step synthetic sequences. It is widely used in pharmaceutical research as an intermediate for generating bioactive compounds and complex molecular architectures.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
As a synthetic building block, tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate does not have a specific biological target. It is a chemical reagent used in drug discovery for the synthesis of target molecules rather than a pharmacologically active compound itself. Its role in pharmaceutical research is to serve as a precursor or intermediate for constructing drug candidates, including PROTAC molecules, peptide-based therapeutics, and various small-molecule drugs. When incorporated into larger molecules, the resulting compounds may target specific enzymes, receptors, or protein-protein interactions depending on the final structure.
ln Vitro
N-Boc-1,3-propanediamine is essential for both the Suzuki reaction and the synthesis of spermidine analogues.
As a chemical intermediate, tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate does not exhibit intrinsic biological activity in vitro. Its value lies in its utility for synthesizing biologically active molecules, including PROTACs, peptide conjugates, and pharmaceutical intermediates. In the context of drug discovery, it serves as a linker or spacer for constructing complex molecules with desired pharmacological properties. It may be used in the synthesis of compounds that are subsequently tested for various in vitro activities, but the compound itself is not directly assayed for biological effects.
ln Vivo
This compound is not a pharmacologically active agent and does not possess intrinsic in vivo activity. Its applications in vivo are limited to its use as a synthetic intermediate for producing drug candidates that are then evaluated in animal models. The Boc-protected diamine structure is designed for chemical stability and selective reactivity, facilitating the assembly of complex molecules for pharmaceutical research. It is not administered to animals as a test compound.
Enzyme Assay
Cell-free enzyme/receptor binding assays are not applicable to tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate as it is not a biologically active compound. However, it may be used as a reagent in the synthesis of compounds that are subsequently evaluated in such assays. For compounds derived from this intermediate, typical binding assays involve incubating the test compound with purified enzymes or receptors in buffered solutions (e.g., Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, with appropriate cofactors) at 25–37°C. Binding affinity is measured using methods such as fluorescence polarization, SPR, or radioactive ligand displacement.
Cell Assay
Cell-based assays are not directly performed on tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate due to its lack of biological activity. However, it is used as a synthetic intermediate for compounds that are later tested in cellular systems. For such studies, cells (e.g., cancer cell lines, primary neurons, or immune cells) are cultured in appropriate media and treated with the synthesized compounds. Cell viability (MTT or CCK-8), proliferation, apoptosis, and specific signaling pathway activation are assessed using standard biochemical and molecular biology techniques.
Animal Protocol
In vivo animal studies are not conducted with tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate itself, as it is a chemical reagent rather than a drug candidate. However, drug candidates synthesized from this intermediate may be evaluated in animal models for efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and toxicity. Typical studies involve oral or intravenous administration to rodents, with monitoring of plasma drug levels, tissue distribution, and disease-relevant endpoints. All studies are conducted in accordance with institutional animal care and use committee guidelines.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate is a synthetic chemical reagent and is not subject to pharmacokinetic evaluation as a drug. Its physicochemical properties include a boiling point of 271.7±23.0°C at 760 mmHg, a melting point of 22°C, and solubility in chloroform and methanol. As a Boc-protected amine, it is stable under normal storage conditions (2–8°C under inert atmosphere) and can be selectively deprotected under mild acidic conditions to yield the free diamine for further functionalization.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
The toxicological profile of tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate as a pure chemical reagent has not been extensively characterized. Standard laboratory safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, including the use of personal protective equipment (gloves, goggles, lab coat) and adequate ventilation. It may cause skin and eye irritation upon contact. As with most organic solvents and reagents, ingestion or inhalation should be avoided. Appropriate first-aid measures should be in place, and spills should be cleaned up promptly using absorbent materials.
Additional Infomation
tert-Butyl (3-aminopropyl)carbamate (N-Boc-1,3-propanediamine) is not a drug and has no clinical or therapeutic applications. It is a widely used chemical reagent in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. Its primary applications include peptide synthesis, PROTAC linker construction, and the preparation of various pharmaceutical intermediates. The Boc protecting group enables selective deprotection under mild acidic conditions, allowing for orthogonal protection strategies in complex molecule assembly. It is available as a colorless liquid with high purity (≥98%) and is stored at 2–8°C under inert atmosphere.
