Fmoc-Phe-Wang Resin (100–200 Mesh): Preloaded Resin for C-Terminal Phenylalanine Peptides
Fmoc-Phe-Wang Resin is a preloaded polystyrene-based solid-phase resin designed for Fmoc/tBu solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). It is functionalized with Fmoc-protected L-phenylalanine (Fmoc-Phe-OH) via an ester linkage to a Wang linker, anchored on a 100–200 mesh polystyrene-divinylbenzene (PS-DVB) matrix. Upon cleavage with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), peptides synthesized on this resin bear a C-terminal free carboxylic acid (-COOH).
This resin is an ideal starting point for synthesizing C-terminal phenylalanine peptides, saving time by eliminating the first amino acid coupling step.
