TCO-carbonylamino-benzyl NHS ester

TCO–carbonylamino–benzyl NHS ester is a reagent used in peptide synthesis. It is an N–hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester of the TCO–carbonylamino–benzyl group, which is a type of protecting group used in the synthesis of peptides. TCO–carbonylamino–benzyl NHS ester is used to protect the amino groups of the peptide from unwanted side reactions such as racemization, oxidation and hydrolysis.
