L-Alanine, N-[(9H-fluoren-9-ylmethoxy)carbonyl]-, methyl ester

Description:
L-Alanine, N-[(9H-fluoren-9-ylmethoxy)carbonyl]-, methyl ester, commonly referred to as Fmoc-L-alanine methyl ester, is a derivative of the amino acid L-alanine. This compound features a fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) protecting group, which is widely used in peptide synthesis to protect the amino group during the formation of peptide bonds. The presence of the methyl ester indicates that the carboxylic acid group of L-alanine is esterified, enhancing its solubility and reactivity in organic synthesis. Fmoc-L-alanine methyl ester is typically a white to off-white solid, and it is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and dimethylformamide. Its molecular structure allows for easy cleavage of the Fmoc group under basic conditions, facilitating the synthesis of peptides. This compound is valuable in the field of medicinal chemistry and biochemistry, particularly in the development of peptide-based drugs and research applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with all chemical substances.
