Abstrakt: In this study, we introduce N -substituted iminothiolane (NIT) as a robust protecting group for lysine side chains. NIT is compatible with Fmoc-SPPS and can be efficiently removed under mild nucleophilic conditions. Notably, NIT offers enhanced hydrophilicity compared to traditional orthogonal lysine-protecting groups and does not undergo intramolecular migration. Additionally, the synthesis of NIT in aqueous media highlights its eco-friendly nature, positioning it as a promising alternative to protect lysine side chains.
