Z-Lys-NH2 · HCl

Z-Lys-NH2 · HCl is a protected lysine amino acid derivative in which the α-amino group is protected with a benzyloxycarbonyl (Z, Cbz) group and the compound is present as the hydrochloride salt, with a lysine side chain bearing a terminal ε-amino functionality. The molecule contains a free carboxamide-forming amino acid backbone with an amidic primary amine at the C-terminus (-NH2) and an additional ε-amino group, while the Z protecting group masks the α-amino functionality to control chemoselectivity during coupling. As an amino acid building block, Z-Lys-NH2 · HCl is used in peptide and peptidomimetic synthesis and related chemical biology workflows where a lysine residue with an unprotected side-chain amine is required for subsequent functionalization or conjugation.
