New FMOC-TYROSINE derivative available

Bachem is continuously expanding and updating its extensive range of products for your research purposes.

A new Fmoc-Tyr derivative, recently developed by Undén’s group for the solubilization of hydrophobic peptides, has been added to our offer.

The lateral Boc group of Tyr(Boc-Nmec) is removed during the cleavage from the resin leaving a protonated N-methylethylamino moiety which increases the aqueous solubility of the crude peptide and thus facilitates its purification. The solubilizing Nmec group is split off via an intramolecular cyclization in neutral or slightly basic solution.

Fmoc-Tyr(Boc-Nmec)-OH has been added to the online catalog on July 11, 2012 and is now available.
