N-6-Trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine
1. Basic Information
Name: N-6-Trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine
Alias: Nε-Trifluoroacetyl-L-lysine
CAS No.: 10009-20-8
Molecular Formula: C8H13F3N2O3
Molecular Weight: 242.19
Category: Amino acid protected derivative, peptide synthesis intermediate, polypeptide raw material, biochemical research reagent
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: White crystalline powder
- Odor: Odorless, slight amino acid sour taste
- Solubility: Soluble in water, methanol, dilute acetic acid; slightly soluble in ethanol; insoluble in acetone, ethyl acetate, alkanes
- Melting Point: 242–246 ℃ (decomposes)
- Density (predicted): 1.34 g/cm3
- Hygroscopy: Slightly hygroscopic under high humidity
- Aqueous property: Amphoteric amino acid, stable pH range 4–7; trifluoroacetyl protecting group hydrolyzes under strong alkali heating
Chemical Properties
- Molecular structure: L-lysine backbone, ε-amino group protected by trifluoroacetyl group, retains α-amino and α-carboxyl groups for peptide condensation
- Protecting group characteristic: Trifluoroacetyl group is acid-stable, selectively removed under mild alkaline conditions without destroying peptide bonds
- Chiral stability: Single chiral center, no racemization under conventional peptide synthesis temperature
- Thermal stability: Stable below 80 ℃; heating above 120 ℃ triggers partial deprotection and degradation
- Photostability: Moderate light resistance, long-term strong light slightly increases related impurities
- Compatibility: Compatible with common peptide synthesis solvents; incompatible with concentrated strong alkali, strong oxidants
3. Main Application Fields
