Purpose:

Fmoc-Me-L-Phe-OH is often used in peptide synthesis as an amino acid protection group, which protects the amino functional groups of amino acids to prevent unnecessary reactions. It is also used as an important component of building polypeptide chains, especially in solid phase synthesis.

Preparation:

The preparation of Fmoc-Me-L-Phe-OH is usually done by reacting Fmoc-Cl (9-fluorene formyl chloride) with methyl-L-phenylalanine. The reaction needs to be carried out under alkaline conditions and the resulting product can then be purified by crystallization to obtain a pure product
