Fmoc-D-Lys(N3)-OH

Chemical Properties

White crystalline powder

Uses

Fmoc-D-Lys(N3)-OH is a click chemistry reagent containing an azide group. Fmoc-D-Lys(N3)-OH can be used for the research of various biochemical[1]. It contains an azide group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing alkyne groups. It can also undergo ring strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloaddition (SPAAC) with molecules containing DBCO or BCN groups.
