Z-D-MeAla-OH

Z-D-MeAla-OH is a protected, stereochemically defined amino acid derivative belonging to the alanine family, featuring a D-configured α-amino acid backbone with a methyl-substituted side chain (MeAla) and a benzylic Z (carbobenzyloxy) protecting group on the amino functionality. The molecule contains a free carboxylic acid (-COOH) while the amine is masked as a carbamate, which reduces undesired amine reactivity and provides chemoselectivity during stepwise peptide assembly. Z-D-MeAla-OH is used as a building block for peptide synthesis and related amino acid coupling workflows where a protected, side-chain-defined alanine analogue is required for preparing more complex amino acid and peptide derivatives.

Designed for biological research and industrial applications, not intended for individual clinical or medical purposes.
