Product Overview

Fmoc-α-Me-Phe-OH is N-(9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)-α-methyl-L-phenylalanine, an α,α-disubstituted amino acid derivative. The additional α-methyl group creates a quaternary α-carbon that strongly restricts backbone conformation and enhances resistance to enzymatic degradation; due to steric hindrance, coupling typically requires stronger activation or extended reaction times.
