9-Fluorenylmethyl Chloroformate by Molecular Depot is a 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (Fmoc-Cl), an N-protecting agent for peptide chemistry. The fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl group is removed by mild base rather than acid, which is what allows Fmoc chemistry to be run alongside acid-labile side chain protection. It is used to introduce Fmoc protection onto amines in peptide synthesis, to derivatise amines for fluorescence detection in chromatography and in amino acid analysis. Each unit contains 1 g. MBP supplies Molecular Depot research reagents to research labs in the United States, Canada and worldwide.
