Deprotection Reagents in Fmoc Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis: Moving Away from Piperidine?

The deprotection step is crucial in order to secure a good quality product in Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis. 9-Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) removal is achieved by a two-step mechanism reaction favored by the use of cyclic secondary amines; however, the efficiency of the reaction could be aff...
