Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-serine (CAS# 128107-47-1)
Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-serine, also known as Fmoc-D-serine-O-tert-butyl, is a commonly used amino acid protecting group.
Quality:
Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-serine is a solid, white crystalline powder. It is stable at room temperature and dissolves in solvents.
Use:
Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-serine is mainly used as an amino acid protecting group in solid-phase synthesis. It prevents unwanted reactions in the side chains of amino acids, making them easier to control in synthesis. It is commonly used in the synthesis of peptides and proteins.
Method:
Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-serine can be obtained by chemical synthesis. The specific synthesis method is generally by introducing the Fmoc protecting group on the hydroxyl group of D-serine and the tert-butyl protecting group on the amino group.
Safety Information:
Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-D-serine is relatively safe under general operating conditions. It may have an irritating effect on the eyes and skin and should be avoided. Appropriate personal protective equipment, such as laboratory gloves and goggles, should be used during use.
