Fmoc-Met-OH is a protected methionine derivative used in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). Its molecular formula is C16H21NO4S, and the CAS number is 79580-39-1. This reagent features an Fmoc group that ensures orthogonal protection during automated synthesis cycles.
Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent oxidation of the thioether group. Handle with appropriate PPE as it may cause skin irritation. Not approved for direct clinical use; strictly for laboratory or industrial intermediate processing.
