Z-gamma-carboxy-DL-Glu(OtBu)2-OH

Z-gamma-carboxy-DL-Glu(OtBu)2-OH is a protected, nonstandard glutamate derivative featuring a gamma-carboxylated side chain (gamma-glutamate motif) and a DL stereochemical mixture at the amino acid center, with the amino group masked as a Z (benzyloxycarbonyl, Cbz-like) carbamate. The molecule bears two tert-butyl ester protecting groups on the side-chain carboxyl functionality, while the free carboxylic acid at the alpha position remains available for further coupling chemistry, yielding a protected amino acid intermediate with both carbamate and ester protection that controls chemoselectivity during synthesis. In peptide and amino-acid-derivative synthesis, it is employed as a stepwise building block to introduce gamma-carboxylated glutamate units into longer peptide frameworks and to support structure-activity studies or analytical labeling strategies that require a protected, multifunctional glutamate analogue.
