Product Overview

Fmoc-Tyr(tBu)-OH; Fmoc-O-tert-butyl-L-tyrosine CAS: 71989-38-3

Applications

The standard orthogonally protected tyrosine derivative used in Fmoc Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS). Protecting the phenolic hydroxyl group with an acid-labile tert-butyl (tBu) ether prevents undesirable side reactions—such as O-acylation during coupling steps or side-chain alkylation during cleavage. The tBu group remains stable during routine Fmoc deprotection (piperidine treatment) and is removed simultaneously with resin cleavage using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA).
