Ac-Val-OMe, also known as Acetyl-Valine Methyl Ester, is a chemical compound characterized by its structure as an acetylated derivative of the amino acid valine. It features an acetyl group (–COCH3) attached to the nitrogen of the valine side chain, along with a methyl ester group (–OCH3) at the carboxylic acid end. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and ethanol, but less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. Ac-Val-OMe is often used in peptide synthesis and as a building block in the production of various pharmaceuticals and bioactive compounds. Its properties, including melting point and boiling point, can vary depending on purity and specific conditions. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and research applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.

Ac-Val-OMe is a trimethyl l-amino acid that is found in nature. It has been shown to be an inhibitor of serine protease, including cathepsin K and thrombin, as well as other enzymes. Ac-Val-OMe has been shown to have a catalytic rate of 1.5 x 10^6 M/s at pH 7 and a residue specific activity of 2.8 x 10^4 U/mg at pH 6. Ac-Val-OMe also inhibits the activity of n-acetyl-l-tyrosine amidohydrolase which is involved in the biosynthesis of tyrosine, histidine and tryptophan. The stereospecificity of this compound was determined using L-(+)-serine and D-(−)-serine as substrates with the enzyme chymotrypsin. The product ratio was 3:1 when Ac-Val-OMe was used
