Specification

Description
Fmoc-DOPA is a synthetic derivative of L-DOPA, a naturally occurring amino acid that is a precursor to dopamine and other catecholamines. It is synthesized by attaching a fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group to the amino group of DOPA, which results in increased solubility and stability. Fmoc-DOPA has been widely used in peptide synthesis and as a building block in the preparation of bioconjugates due to its unique chemical and physical properties.
