Boc-His(Trt)-Aib-OH (protected His-Aib dipeptide) is a
protected peptide fragment used in convergent (fragment-condensation) peptide
synthesis, which can improve coupling efficiency and reduce racemisation and
deletion risk at difficult junctions compared with stepwise assembly. Also
known as Boc-histidine(Trt)-alpha-aminoisobutyric acid dipeptide. The trityl
(Trt) side-chain group is acid-labile, helps keep the residue soluble during
coupling and limits side reactions that affect unprotected side chains. Aib
(α-aminoisobutyric acid) promotes helical conformation and resists enzymatic
cleavage, a feature of several incretin-type peptides. ApiSyn can supply it
alongside related protected derivatives, which simplifies sourcing for
multi-residue sequences.
