Fmoc-Asp(OBzl)-OH
Fmoc-Asp(OBzl)-OH (CAS: 86060-84-6; C26H23NO6) is a protected amino acid derivative utilised in peptide synthesis. It features the Fmoc protecting group on the alpha-amino group and a benzyl ester protecting the side-chain carboxyl group of aspartic acid. This dual protection strategy is crucial for controlled peptide chain elongation. The compound is suitable for research and development applications in chemical biology and synthesis.
