Product Description
Fmoc-Asn(Mmt)-Oh is a protected asparagine derivative widely used in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). The Fmoc (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) group protects the amino terminus, while the Mmt (4-methoxytrityl) group safeguards the side chain. This combination ensures high coupling efficiency and minimal side reactions during peptide assembly.
Researchers and chemists rely on this reagent for synthesizing complex peptides with precision. The Mmt protection is particularly valuable as it can be selectively removed under mild acidic conditions, allowing for orthogonal deprotection strategies. Whether you’re working on therapeutic peptides, biochemical studies, or custom peptide projects, Fmoc-Asn(Mmt)-Oh delivers consistent results.
At eqipped, we source this product directly from Merck, ensuring authenticity and batch-to-batch reliability. Our streamlined supply chain guarantees that you receive your order quickly, so your research stays on track.
