What is the CAS number for Fmoc-Gly-OH?The CAS registry number is 29022-11-3. The molecular formula is C₁₇H₁₅NO₄, and the molecular weight is 297.31 g/mol. Cross-check all three identifiers against your internal specifications before ordering.
What is the minimum purity guarantee?Every lot is released at ≥ 99.0% purity by HPLC area normalization. The certificate of analysis lists the exact assay value, related substance peaks, and residual solvent data. No material ships below this threshold.
How should Fmoc-Gly-OH be stored?Store in a tightly closed container at 2–8 °C, away from light and moisture. Under recommended conditions, the product meets specifications for 24 months from the date of manufacture. Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures above 25 °C.
Does baishixing provide a certificate of analysis with every order?Yes. Each shipment includes a COA covering assay (HPLC), appearance, melting point, loss on drying, heavy metals, and residual solvents. IR and mass spectra for the specific lot can be provided upon request.
What quantities are available for bulk supply?Standard packaging includes 500 g, 1 kg, 5 kg, and 25 kg units. Orders above 100 kg can be arranged with production scheduling lead times, and multi-hundred-kilogram commitments may qualify for dedicated batch allocation.
Is Fmoc-Gly-OH suitable for GMP production?This product meets analytical-grade criteria and ships with batch records, impurity profiles, and stability summaries. Your quality unit should perform a vendor assessment to confirm alignment with GMP requirements for your specific application.
What is the difference between Fmoc-Gly-OH and Boc-Gly-OH?Fmoc-Gly-OH carries a base-labile 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl group, while Boc-Gly-OH uses an acid-labile tert-butyloxycarbonyl group. They are used in different SPPS strategies — Fmoc/tBu chemistry versus Boc/Bzl chemistry — so the choice depends on your overall deprotection scheme.
Does Fmoc-Gly-OH work with automated peptide synthesizers?Yes. The product is a free-flowing crystalline powder, though we recommend verifying flow characteristics on your specific synthesizer deck. Custom particle size distribution can be manufactured on request to optimize dispensing performance.
This product differs from commodity Fmoc-Gly-OH supplies in two ways: the analytical depth of its release documentation and the flexibility of its supply chain. Many vendors ship product with a single purity value and no supporting impurity data, which forces downstream labs to perform their own full characterization before use. Here, each lot arrives with complete chromatographic and spectroscopic documentation, allowing receiving QC to release the material immediately without lengthy in-house testing. The multi-tier packaging system also accommodates both small R&D orders and full-scale manufacturing campaigns without requiring a change in vendor or re-qualification of the raw material. Peptide manufacturers, CROs, and research groups that treat raw material consistency as a critical quality attribute will find this product aligned with their workflow requirements. Those needing only occasional gram-scale quantities may prefer a local distributor instead, but for any program that depends on reproducible peptide synthesis, the traceability and documentation built into this supply model offer practical advantages.
