description Product Description
This compound is primarily utilized in peptide synthesis, particularly in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) methods. It serves as a protected amino acid derivative, where the Fmoc (fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) group acts as a temporary protecting group for the amine functionality, allowing for selective deprotection during the synthesis process. The N-Me (N-methyl) modification enhances the stability and can influence the conformational properties of the resulting peptide. The Abu (2-aminobutyric acid) moiety, with its specific side chain, is incorporated into peptides to study structure-activity relationships or to modify peptide properties such as hydrophobicity, flexibility, or resistance to enzymatic degradation. This chemical is especially valuable in the development of bioactive peptides, peptidomimetics, and pharmaceutical compounds where precise control over amino acid incorporation is critical.
