<h3>Overview</h3>
<p><strong>L-Lysine Trifluoroacetate N-Carboxyanhydride</strong> is a protected amino acid derivative synthesized via phosgenation of L-lysine trifluoroacetate. It serves as a key monomer for synthesizing poly(epsilon-lysine) polymers. <strong>Molecular Formula</strong>: C14H20F3N3O3; <strong>CAS No.</strong>: 87569-56-4.</p>
<h3>Application</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Gene Delivery</strong>: Synthesis of cationic polypeptides for non-viral gene transfection vectors.</li>
<li><strong>Biomaterials</strong>: Fabrication of biodegradable hydrogels and drug delivery carriers.</li>
<li><strong>Peptide Synthesis</strong>: Usage in solid-phase synthesis to introduce lysine residues with side-chain protection.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Precautions</h3>
<p>Strictly store under inert atmosphere at -20°C to prevent hydrolysis. Avoid skin contact and inhalation due to potential sensitization. Not approved for direct clinical use without further formulation and purification.</p>
