This compound is primarily used in peptide synthesis as a protected amino acid derivative. It serves as a building block in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), where the fluoren-9-ylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) group acts as a temporary protecting group for the amino functionality. The carbamoyl group provides stability during the synthesis process. It is particularly valuable in the production of complex peptides and proteins, enabling precise control over the sequence and structure of the synthesized peptide. Its application is crucial in pharmaceutical research, biotechnology, and the development of therapeutic peptides.
