Dear ABRF,

>In fact employing it in a standard Fmoc synthesis we find out a broken

>protocol(piperidine?).
>We use TFA 95%, TIS 2,5%, H2O 2,5% as cleavage mixture.
>Is there any possibility that this product could be broken by some other
>reagent?
>We would like to have your opinion in this matter, with some reference
