Product Description
N-(9-Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl)glutamic acid α-tert-butyl ester is a glutamic acid analogue.
Fmoc-Glu-OtBu, also known as N-α-Fmoc-L-glutamic acid α-tert-butyl ester, is a selectively protected building block for Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). It features an Fmoc-protected α-amino group and a tert-butyl ester protecting the α-carboxyl group. It is widely used in the preparation of γ-glutamyl peptides and in developing treatments for metabolic disorders.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
Targets
Fmoc-Glu-OtBu is classified as a protected amino acid and does not have a specific biological receptor target. Its primary application is as a building block for introducing glutamic acid residues with a protected α-carboxyl group into peptides. The Fmoc group enables standard SPPS, while the tert-butyl ester provides acid-labile protection for the α-carboxyl group.
ln Vitro
Commercial ergot supplements have been made from amino acids and their derivatives. They affect the release of anabolic hormones, the availability of fuel for activity, the ability to think clearly under pressure, and the prevention of muscular damage brought on by exertion. They are regarded as advantageous synergistic food ingredients [1].
In vitro activity for Fmoc-Glu-OtBu is primarily as a peptide synthesis reagent. Amino acid derivatives have been studied as ergogenic supplements, influencing the secretion of anabolic hormones, fuel availability, mental performance, and prevention of muscular damage. Fmoc-Glu-OtBu itself is not directly biologically active. Its utility is in preparing glutamic acid-containing peptides for subsequent biological evaluation.
ln Vivo
In vivo activity data for Fmoc-Glu-OtBu as a standalone compound is not applicable. It is a protected amino acid building block used in research. Peptides synthesized using this building block may be evaluated in animal models. The protecting groups are typically removed before biological testing. It has been used in the discovery of novel OXM-based glucagon-like peptide dual agonists.
Enzyme Assay
In vitro SPPS protocols for Fmoc-Glu-OtBu involve standard Fmoc chemistry. The compound is activated with coupling reagents and DIPEA in DMF, then coupled to resin-bound peptides. Fmoc deprotection uses 20% piperidine in DMF. The tert-butyl ester is removed with 50% TFA in DCM. Purity is ≥98% by HPLC.
Cell Assay
Cell-based protocols are not directly applicable to Fmoc-Glu-OtBu as it is a protected amino acid derivative. Glutamic acid-containing peptides synthesized using this reagent can be tested in cell culture after deprotection. Peptides are dissolved in DMSO or appropriate buffers and added to cells at concentrations of 0.1-100 µM for 24-72 hours.
Animal Protocol
Animal studies with Fmoc-Glu-OtBu are not conducted directly. Peptides containing glutamic acid residues synthesized using this building block may be evaluated in vivo. Protocols involve administration of the peptide via appropriate routes in animal models. Pharmacokinetic sampling, efficacy assessment, and toxicological evaluation follow standard preclinical study designs.
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Pharmacokinetic data for Fmoc-Glu-OtBu as a standalone compound is not applicable. The compound has a molecular weight of 425.47 g/mol, formula C24H27NO6, and appears as a white to light yellow powder to crystal. Melting point is 108.0-112.0°C. Storage is recommended at room temperature (below 15°C).
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Limited toxicological data is available for Fmoc-Glu-OtBu. The compound is for research use only. Standard safety precautions should be observed. No specific toxicity studies have been reported. It is not intended for human therapeutic use. Store at room temperature in a cool, dry place.

  • Enter 5 in the Volume box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 17.513 mg appears in the Mass box. In a similar way, you may calculate the volume and concentration.

Dilution Calculator allows you to calculate how to dilute a stock solution of known concentrations. For example, you may Enter C1, C2 & V2 to calculate V1, as detailed below:

What volume of a given 10 mM stock solution is required to make 25 ml of a 25 μM solution?
Using the equation C1V1 = C2V2, where C1=10 mM, C2=25 μM, V2=25 ml and V1 is the unknown:
  • Enter 10 into the Concentration (Start) box and choose the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Concentration (End) box and select the correct unit (mM)
  • Enter 25 into the Volume (End) box and choose the correct unit (mL)
  • Click the “Calculate” button
  • The answer of 62.5 μL (0.1 ml) appears in the Volume (Start) box
