Description:Fmoc-cyclohexyl-Gly-OH, with the CAS number 161321-36-4, is a chemical compound commonly used in peptide synthesis and research. It features a phenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) protecting group, which is widely utilized to protect the amino group of amino acids during the synthesis process. The cyclohexyl group contributes to the hydrophobic character of the molecule, influencing its solubility and interaction with other compounds. Glycine (Gly) is the simplest amino acid, and its presence in this compound indicates that it can serve as a building block in peptide chains. The Fmoc group can be removed under basic conditions, allowing for the subsequent coupling of this amino acid with others to form peptides. The compound is typically solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents, making it suitable for various synthetic applications. Its unique structure and properties make it valuable in the fields of medicinal chemistry and biochemistry, particularly in the development of peptide-based therapeutics.
