Z-Glu(OtBu)-ONp

Z-Glu(OtBu)-ONp is a protected glutamic acid derivative in which the α-amino group is carbobenzyloxy-protected (Z/Cbz) and the side-chain γ-carboxyl is tert-butyl ester-protected, yielding a molecule bearing a masked amino acid framework suitable for peptide chemistry. The carboxyl functionality is present as an ONp ester (p-nitrophenyl ester), and the compound therefore contains an activated carboxyl group alongside the protected amine and protected side-chain carboxyl, with stereochemistry consistent with the glutamate scaffold as supplied by the product identity. Z-Glu(OtBu)-ONp is used as an amino-acid building block or activated intermediate for acylation steps in peptide synthesis and related conjugation workflows, where the ONp ester can serve as a leaving-group-bearing acyl donor while the Z and OtBu groups help control chemoselectivity during sequential assembly of more complex peptide derivatives.
