Z-GLU(OTBU)-OH DCHA is a protected glutamic acid derivative used as a key intermediate in solid-phase peptide synthesis. The molecule features a benzyl carbamate (Z) group on the N-terminus and a tert-butyl ester (OTBu) on the side chain, neutralized by dicyclohexylamine (DCHA). Its molecular formula is C28H40N2O6.
Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent hydrolysis or racemization. Avoid contact with strong acids or bases which may cleave protecting groups. Use appropriate PPE including gloves and goggles during handling due to potential irritant properties.
