Properties
Description
Tert-butyl 3-(2-iodoethoxy)propanoate is a bifunctional reagent featuring an iodoethoxy group and a t-butyl ester-protected carboxyl group. The iodine atom serves as an excellent leaving group for nucleophilic substitution, while the t-butyl ester can be selectively removed under acidic conditions, exposing the free carboxylic acid.
Molecular Formula
C9H17IO3
Functional Group 1
Iodine
Functional Group 2
t-Butyl ester
Identity
Confirmed by NMR.
Applications
Tert-butyl 3-(2-iodoethoxy)propanoate is utilized in organic synthesis and bioconjugation. It enables efficient nucleophilic substitution reactions and provides controlled deprotection of the ester group, making it suitable for targeted functionalization and the synthesis of complex molecules in pharmaceutical research.
