Description

Application
It is widely used in the derivatization of amino acids and peptides for chromatographic analysis especially in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). It helps in separating and identifying enantiomers of amino acids.

Purpose
The purpose of Marfeys reagent is to determine the absolute configuration (D- or L-form) of amino acids. It converts enantiomers into diastereomers allowing their separation and accurate identification.

General Description
This bright yellow to orange crystalline powder (molecular formula C9H9FN4O5 MW 272.19 gmol mp 229C) features a reactive fluoro-dinitrophenyl group attached to L-alanine amide for chiral derivatization
