It functions as a protected amino acid derivative that is crucial for the development of drugs like eluxadoline, which is used to treat diarrhea associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). The tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group acts as a protecting group to control reactivity during chemical synthesis. N-(tert-Butoxycarbonyl)-4-carbamoyl-2,6-dimethyl-L-phenylalanine is used mainly as a pharmaceutical intermediate in the synthesis of opioid modulators, particularly eluxadoline.
