PyBOP, or benzotriazol-1-yl-oxytripyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate, is a coupling reagent commonly used in peptide synthesis. It is particularly useful in the Merrifield solid-phase method of automated peptide synthesis, where it facilitates the formation of amide bonds between amino acids to build up the desired peptide sequence.
congrats on reading the definition of PyBOP. now let's actually learn it.
