Fmoc-N-Me-Leu-OH
Based on 1 Customer Validation
Fmoc-N-Me-Leu-OH is an N-Fmoc-N-methyl amino acid that can be used in peptide coupling reactions. Fmoc-N-Me-Leu-OH is primarily used as a standard building block in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) to introduce N-methylleucine residues into peptide chains, thereby enhancing the enzymatic stability, altering conformational flexibility, and modifying the biological activity of the target peptide.

Biological Activity
Fmoc-N-Me-Leu-OH is a commonly used derivative for introducing N-methylleucine in Fmoc strategy solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS); this residue can be efficiently incorporated using HATU/HOBt/DIPEA or PyBOP/HOBt/DIPEA as coupling reagents; N-methylation can increase the resistance of peptides to proteases and extend their in vivo half-life[1]. Fmoc-N-Me-Leu-OH is used in the synthesis of N-methylated peptides to study the effects of N-methylation on peptide conformation, biological activity, and pharmacokinetic properties; the introduction of N-methylleucine can reduce the immunogenicity of peptides and improve membrane permeability[2].

Select the appropriate dissolution method based on your experimental animal and administration route.
- For the following dissolution methods, please ensure to first prepare a clear stock solution using an In Vitro approach and then sequentially add co-solvents:
- To ensure reliable experimental results, the clarified stock solution can be appropriately stored based on storage conditions. As for the working solution for In Vivo experiments, it is recommended to prepare freshly and use it on the same day.
- The percentages shown for the solvents indicate their volumetric ratio in the final prepared solution. If precipitation or phase separation occurs during preparation, heat and/or sonication can be used to aid dissolution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 40% PEG300 5% Tween-80 45% Saline
Solubility: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (6.80 mM); Clear solution
This protocol yields a clear solution of ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (saturation unknown).
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 400 μL PEG300, and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 and mix evenly; then add 450 μL Saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL.
Preparation of Saline: Dissolve 0.9 g sodium chloride in ddH₂O and dilute to 100 mL to obtain a clear Saline solution.
Add each solvent one by one: 10% DMSO 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline)
Solubility: 2.5 mg/mL (6.80 mM); Suspended solution; Need ultrasonic
This protocol yields a suspended solution of 2.5 mg/mL. Suspended solution can be used for oral and intraperitoneal injection.
Taking 1 mL working solution as an example, add 100 μL DMSO stock solution (25.0 mg/mL) to 900 μL 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline, and mix evenly.
Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C, storage for one week): 2 g SBE-β-CD powder is dissolved in 10 mL Saline, completely dissolve until clear.
