(S)-Methyl 2-Boc-amino-3-iodopropionate is primarily employed in the synthesis of modified amino acids and peptidomimetics for drug discovery. Its iodine functionality enables efficient cross-coupling reactions (e.g., Sonogashira, Heck) to introduce diverse side chains. The Boc group facilitates selective deprotection in multi-step peptide synthesis. Researchers also utilize it in radiolabeling studies due to the replaceable iodine atom. Suitable for automated solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) protocols.
