Z-His-NH2

Z-His-NH2 is a protected histidine derivative in which the imidazole-containing amino acid side chain is retained while the α-amino group is masked as a benzyloxycarbonyl (Z, Cbz) carbamate. The molecule bears a free carboxamide at the α-position (-NH2) and an imidazole ring on the side chain, providing an additional basic/heteroaromatic functionality that can participate in acid-base interactions during synthesis and analysis. Z-His-NH2 is used as an amino acid building block for preparing histidine-containing peptides and peptide-related intermediates, where the Z protecting group helps control chemoselectivity of coupling and side reactions while the carboxamide functionality supports targeted amide-forming transformations.
