Product Description
Fmoc-Asp(Otbu)-Oh is a high-quality protected aspartic acid derivative widely used in peptide synthesis. This reagent, sourced from Merck, ensures reliable performance in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) due to its high purity and stability. The Fmoc (9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl) protecting group allows for efficient coupling and deprotection steps, while the OtBu (tert-butyl ester) protection on the side chain prevents unwanted reactions during synthesis.
Researchers and students working in biochemistry, pharmacology, or molecular biology will find this compound essential for synthesizing peptides with precise sequences. Whether you’re developing therapeutic peptides, studying protein interactions, or conducting structural biology research, Fmoc-Asp(Otbu)-Oh provides the consistency needed for reproducible results.
