Fmoc-D-Trp-OH (Nα-Fmoc-D-tryptophan, CAS 86123-11-7) is an Fmoc-protected derivative of the D-enantiomer of tryptophan, an essential aromatic amino acid. The molecule features the 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group protecting the α-amino function, while the carboxylic acid remains free for peptide chain elongation. The indole side chain of Fmoc-D-Trp-OH provides both aromatic character and hydrogen-bonding capability, making this compound a valuable building block for incorporating D-tryptophan residues into peptide sequences via Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS).
Fmoc-D-Trp-OH is a high-purity Fmoc-protected amino acid derivative widely employed as a standard building block in Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis for the introduction of D-tryptophan residues. As a D-configured tryptophan derivative, Fmoc-D-Trp-OH enables researchers to access D-amino acid-containing peptides with enhanced resistance to proteolytic degradation and distinct biological activities compared to their L-counterparts. Fmoc-D-Trp-OH is characterized by its white to light yellow to light orange crystalline powder appearance, with a melting point of 182–186 °C and a specific optical rotation of +26.0 to +31.0° (c=1, DMF). In peptide synthesis applications, Fmoc-D-Trp-OH serves as the preferred reagent for incorporating D-tryptophan at defined positions within peptide sequences, supporting structure-activity relationship studies, receptor-binding investigations, and the development of metabolically stable peptide therapeutics. Fmoc-D-Trp-OH is supplied with rigorous analytical characterization including HPLC purity verification, ensuring reliable and reproducible results in both research and process development settings.

Cosperpharm has established a comprehensive quality assurance system for Fmoc-D-Trp-OH that meets the rigorous expectations of peptide synthesis and pharmaceutical research applications: Thorough analytical characterization. Each batch undergoes multi-technique analytical release testing: HPLC purity (≥97.0% with full chromatographic traceability), optical rotation verification ([α]²⁰/D +26.0 to +31.0°), melting point confirmation (182–186 °C), appearance verification (white to light yellow to light orange powder to crystal), and where applicable, ¹H NMR and mass spectrometry confirmation of molecular identity. Full batch traceability with retention samples. From raw material procurement through Fmoc protection, purification, crystallization, drying, and final packaging, every step is fully documented and traceable. Each batch receives a unique lot number with sufficient retention samples maintained in accordance with Cosperpharm quality procedures. Stability monitoring program. Cosperpharm conducts ongoing stability studies under recommended storage conditions, with data available to support customer research and development programs. Shelf life: 3 years at –20 °C; 2 years at 4 °C. Documentation ready for research and regulatory use. Every shipment includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with batch-specific purity and characterization data, and customs documentation for international delivery. For customers developing peptide-based therapeutics, Cosperpharm provides additional documentation upon request, including stability summaries and custom quality agreements. Storage Conditions
Store Fmoc-D-Trp-OH in a tightly sealed container, protected from light and moisture, at 2–8 °C for routine storage. For long-term storage (>12 months), storage at –20 °C under inert atmosphere (nitrogen or argon) is recommended. The compound is stable at ambient temperature for short periods during normal shipping and handling. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents and strong bases. Allow the sealed container to reach ambient temperature before opening to minimize moisture condensation. Shelf life: 3 years when stored at –20 °C in a sealed container under inert atmosphere; 2 years when stored at 4 °C. For research quantities, storage at 2–8 °C is typically sufficient for routine use. Handling precautions: Use standard laboratory practices for handling fine chemical powders. Avoid generating dust. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including lab coat, safety goggles, and chemical-resistant gloves. Work in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. After handling, wash hands thoroughly. Refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for complete safety information. Contact Us
