Description:FMOC-DL-CHA-OH, or 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-DL-cyclohexylalanine, is a chemical compound commonly used in peptide synthesis as a protecting group for amino acids. It features a fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (FMOC) group, which is a popular choice due to its stability under basic conditions and ease of removal under mild acidic conditions. The compound is characterized by its ability to protect the amino group of the amino acid during peptide bond formation, thus preventing unwanted side reactions. FMOC-DL-CHA-OH is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and dimethylformamide, but less soluble in water. Its structure includes a cyclohexyl side chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. The compound is utilized in various applications, particularly in the synthesis of peptides for research and pharmaceutical development. Safety data should be consulted, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper handling and usage in laboratory settings.
