(S)-α-[[(9H-Fluoren-9-ylmethoxy)carbonyl]amino]-2-naphthalenepropanoic acid(CAT: R035092) is a chiral, Fmoc-protected amino acid derivative designed for use in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). Featuring a bulky naphthalene side chain and an Fmoc (fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) protecting group on the α-amino group, this compound enables efficient coupling and deprotection cycles while maintaining stereochemical integrity. Its rigid, aromatic structure is useful in designing peptides with enhanced π-π stacking, hydrophobic interactions, or conformational constraints. Ideal for synthesizing bioactive peptides, peptidomimetics, or structurally complex probes.
