Abstract
Herein we report a synthetic α-amino acid featuring intensely fluorescent coumarin moiety and a strongly self-assembling ureidopyrimidinone (UPy) motif. This two-in-one synthetic amino acid, displaying both fluorescence and self-assembling property, has been synthesized in four easy steps starting from commercially available inexpensive starting materials. Suitably protected amino acid has been incorporated into various peptide sequences, following solution-phase peptide coupling protocols, to demonstrate its synthetic feasibility.
