Fmoc-L-aspartic acid (CAS# 119062-05-4)

Fmoc-L-aspartic acid is an amino acid derivative with the following properties:

Appearance: white or off-white crystalline powder.
Solubility: Good solubility in organic solvents (such as dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide), but poor solubility in water.

Fmoc-L-aspartic acid has a wide range of applications in biochemical and organic synthesis research, and the main uses are as follows:

Peptide synthesis: Fmoc-L-aspartic acid is commonly used in solid-phase synthesis as one of the amino acid units for the synthesis of peptides and proteins.
Biological research: Fmoc-L-aspartic acid can be used to study protein structure and function, such as the structure and activity relationship of proteins by synthesizing fragment peptides.

The preparation method of Fmoc-L-aspartic acid is usually obtained by chemical reaction by using acetyl-L-aspartic acid and Fmoc-Cl (difluorothiophenolate) as raw materials.

Safety Information: Fmoc-L-aspartic acid is a common reagent in chemistry laboratories, but it needs to be used with caution. When operating, it is necessary to wear laboratory gloves, protective glasses, and laboratory clothing to avoid direct contact with the skin and eyes. Also, take care to avoid inhaling the product powder to avoid causing respiratory irritation. In case of any accidents, appropriate first aid should be taken immediately and medical professionals should be consulted.
