S-(9H-Fluoren-9-ylmethyl)-L-cysteine

Description:
S-(9H-Fluoren-9-ylmethyl)-L-cysteine, with the CAS number 84888-38-0, is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, characterized by the presence of a fluorenylmethyl group. This compound features a thiol (-SH) functional group, which is typical of cysteine, allowing it to participate in redox reactions and form disulfide bonds. The fluorenylmethyl moiety enhances its hydrophobic character and can facilitate interactions with biological targets, making it useful in various biochemical applications, including peptide synthesis and as a protecting group in organic synthesis. The compound is typically white to off-white in appearance and is soluble in polar organic solvents. Its unique structure allows for potential applications in drug design and development, particularly in the field of medicinal chemistry, where modifications to amino acids can lead to compounds with improved pharmacological properties. As with many cysteine derivatives, it may also exhibit antioxidant properties due to the presence of the thiol group.
