Z-Glu-OH, or N-Z-glutamic acid, is a protected amino acid derivative synthesized via the coupling of glutamic acid with benzyloxycarbonyl chloride. This intermediate features the molecular formula C14H19NO5 and CAS number 678-20-2. It serves as a critical building block in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) to prevent side reactions during chain elongation.
Store in a cool, dry place below 25°C away from moisture. Handle with appropriate PPE to avoid skin contact; inhalation of dust may cause respiratory irritation. Not intended for direct clinical administration without further processing.
