Fmoc-Lys(For)-OH

Description:
Fmoc-Lys(For)-OH, also known as Fmoc-Lysine with a formyl group, is a protected amino acid commonly used in peptide synthesis. The Fmoc (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) group serves as a protective group for the amino functionality, allowing for selective reactions at the carboxyl end of the amino acid during peptide assembly. The presence of the formyl (For) group introduces a reactive aldehyde functionality, which can be utilized in various coupling reactions or modifications. This compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in organic solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and dimethylformamide (DMF), but less soluble in water. Its stability is generally good under standard laboratory conditions, although it should be stored in a cool, dry place to prevent degradation. Fmoc-Lys(For)-OH is valuable in the synthesis of peptides that require specific modifications or functionalities, making it an important tool in the fields of biochemistry and medicinal chemistry.
