Ac-Amino Acids

Acetyl (Ac)-amino acids help to protect the amino group of the amino acid from unwanted reactions, allowing for more controlled manipulation in chemical reactions. Ac-amino acids are commonly used in peptide synthesis and other organic chemistry applications, enabling precise and efficient synthesis of complex molecules. The Ac group can be easily removed under mild conditions after the desired reactions have taken place, leaving behind the unaltered amino acid. With many years of experience in the design and synthesis of protected amino acids, Alfa Chemistry has successfully produced a series of Ac-amino acids.
