Pre-loaded Fmoc-amino acid 2-CTC resin
Fmoc-amino acids on 2-chlorotrityl resin with verified loading. Ideal starting point for protected fragments, C-terminal Pro/Gly sequences, and projects that combine mild cleavage with skip-the-first-load convenience.

Pre-loaded 2-CTC
Manual loading onto 2-CTC requires care with base and coupling agent to avoid over-acylation and epimerization. Pre-loaded material transfers that risk to the supplier process and gives a traceable starting point for fragment synthesis.
Teams running convergent synthesis often standardize on one pre-loaded C-terminal residue per scaffold, then mild-cleave identical handles across a series.

Pre-loaded 2-CTC vs manual load
| Factor | Manual 2-CTC load | Pre-loaded 2-CTC |
|---|---|---|
| Reproducibility | Operator-dependent | Lot COA loading |
| Time to cycle 1 | Extra day | Deprotect and couple #2 |
| Pro/Gly C-term | High skill load | Supplier-optimized loading |
| Custom rare AA | Flexible | Quote lead time |

Indicative fragment start
- 01
Swell pre-loaded 2-CTC in DMF; Fmoc deprotection as standard.
- 02
Complete SPPS; mild cleave with 1–2% TFA/DCM for protected fragment.
- 03
Or global TFA cleavage for fully deprotected acid if required.
- 04
LC-MS verify both fragment mass and absence of early DKP when Pro/Gly present.
Workflow
Match C-terminal AA to analog series
Lock one pre-loaded SKU per program for SAR consistency.
Elongate with Fmoc
Standard reagents; consider lower loading equivalents on difficult couplings.
Mild cleave for inventory
Build a protected fragment bank for ligation or hybrid steps.
Document lot linkage
Retain COA in batch record for regulatory or tech transfer.

2-Chlorotrityl (2-CTC)
Trityl chloride linker on polystyrene–DVB forms acid-labile benzyl esters. 2-CTC is the default when you need protected peptide fragments, acid-sensitive motifs, or lower diketopiperazine risk at the C-terminus than on Wang.

Fmoc-amino acids esterified on Wang with lot-documented loading. Skips the racemization-prone first coupling and accelerates campaigns where the C-terminal residue is His, Cys, or otherwise sensitive to manual loading.
