Z-D-Norleucine

Z-D-Norleucine is a protected, non-proteinogenic amino acid derivative in which the amino group of D-norleucine is carbobenzyloxy (benzyloxycarbonyl, Z/Cbz) protected, yielding a Z-protected amino acid suitable for peptide chemistry. The molecule retains the free carboxyl group and features a straight-chain aliphatic side chain characteristic of norleucine, with stereochemistry specified as D at the α-carbon while the N-terminus is masked by the Z protecting group to reduce undesired amine reactivity. Z-D-Norleucine is used as a building block for controlled incorporation of a norleucine residue into peptide chains and as a protected intermediate for stepwise synthesis and chemical labeling workflows where orthogonal handling of the amino functionality is required.
