Product Information

• Name: 9H-Fluoren-9-ylmethyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 9H-Fluoren-9-ylmethyl 4-hydroxypiperidine-1-carboxylate (Fmoc) is a primary alcohol that has been used extensively as a building block in the synthesis of cyclic peptides. Fmoc is often irradiated with microwaves to convert it into an activated form that can be coupled with other amino acids. The hydroxyl group on Fmoc can be used to synthesize hydroxylated molecules, such as 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline and 4-(chloromethyl)piperidine. This reagent has also been used for the synthesis of cyclic peptides by immobilization on resin beads. It is toxic at high doses and should be handled with care.
