Z-Glu(OtBu)-OH

Z-Glu(OtBu)-OH is a protected glutamic acid derivative featuring a side-chain carboxylic acid masked as a tert-butyl ester (OtBu) and an α-amino group protected with a benzyloxycarbonyl (Z, Cbz) carbamate. The molecule contains a free carboxylic acid at the α-position (-COOH) while the protected side-chain carboxyl group is present as an ester, and the Z group provides chemoselectivity by suppressing amino reactivity under peptide-coupling conditions. Z-Glu(OtBu)-OH is used as a stepwise amino acid building block for peptide synthesis and for preparing glutamate-containing peptide or peptidomimetic intermediates where orthogonal deprotection can reveal the side-chain carboxyl functionality for subsequent coupling or conjugation.

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