Fmoc-L-aspartic acid (CAS 119062-05-4)
QUICK LINKS
Fmoc-L-aspartic acid functions as a protecting group for the carboxyl group of aspartic acid in peptide synthesis. It is used to prevent unwanted side reactions during the synthesis of peptides by temporarily blocking the carboxyl group, allowing for selective deprotection and subsequent coupling reactions. The mechanism of action involves the reversible attachment of the Fmoc group to the carboxyl group of aspartic acid, forming a stable bond that can be removed under specific conditions. Fmoc-L-aspartic acid plays a role in facilitating the stepwise assembly of peptides by providing protection to the aspartic acid residue, enabling the synthesis of complex peptide structures. At the molecular level, Fmoc-L-aspartic acid interacts with the carboxyl group through covalent bonding, allowing for precise control over the peptide synthesis process.
