This compound serves as a key intermediate in peptide chemistry, enabling the introduction of iodine-labeled amino acids for radioligand studies or structural modifications. It is employed in palladium-catalyzed cross-couplings (e.g., Sonogashira, Suzuki) to create non-natural amino acid derivatives. Researchers also utilize it in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) for Boc-based protection strategies. Its iodine moiety facilitates further functionalization, making it valuable in drug discovery and bioconjugation.
