Application

Fmoc isothiocyanate can be used:
  • As a starting material in the preparation of biologically relevant pharmacophores named N-aryl-N′-carboalkoxy guanidines.
  • In one of the intermediate steps for the synthesis of N-aryl-N-thiazolyl derivatives.
  • To synthesize cyclic isothiourea derivatives as potent neuropeptide Y (NPY) Y1 receptor antagonists.
  • To prepare 2-aminothiazoles, aminobenz-imidazole conjugated thiazoles, and thiazole derived cyclopeptides.
