Boc-Val-Cit-OH

Advance your peptide synthesis and biochemical research with Boc-Val-Cit-OH (CAS No.: 870487-08-4, CAT No.: SRCB-077), a high-purity Boc-protected dipeptide consisting of L-valine and citrulline. This compound features an N-tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group protecting the amino terminus, enabling selective peptide bond formation while preserving the functional side chains of valine and citrulline. With a molecular formula of C₁₄H₂₆N₄O₅ and a molecular weight of 310.38 g/mol,

Boc-Val-Cit-OH is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder. It displays excellent purity (≥98%) and good solubility in organic solvents commonly used in peptide synthesis, such as DMF, DCM, and methanol. This dipeptide is widely used in solid-phase and solution-phase peptide synthesis, supporting research in pharmaceuticals, biochemical probes, and medicinal chemistry involving citrullinated peptides or related motifs.
