H-Orn(Fmoc)-OH

Description:
H-Orn(Fmoc)-OH, also known as Fmoc-ornithine, is a protected amino acid derivative commonly used in peptide synthesis. The "H" denotes the presence of an amino group, while "Orn" refers to ornithine, a non-proteinogenic amino acid. The "Fmoc" (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) group serves as a protective group for the amino functionality, allowing for selective reactions during peptide assembly. This compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in organic solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF) and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), but less soluble in water. Its stability under basic conditions makes it suitable for solid-phase peptide synthesis, where the Fmoc group can be removed under mild conditions to expose the amino group for further coupling reactions. H-Orn(Fmoc)-OH is valuable in the synthesis of peptides that require ornithine, which plays a role in various biological processes, including the urea cycle and protein synthesis. Proper handling and storage are essential, as with many chemical substances, to maintain its integrity and reactivity.
