Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-methionine

Description:
Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-methionine, commonly referred to as Z-Met, is a derivative of the amino acid methionine, where the amino group is protected by a benzyloxycarbonyl (Z) group. This compound is characterized by its white to off-white crystalline appearance and is soluble in organic solvents such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and methanol, but has limited solubility in water. The Z group serves as a protective group in peptide synthesis, allowing for selective reactions without interfering with the amino acid's functional properties. Benzyloxycarbonyl-L-methionine is often utilized in the synthesis of peptides and proteins, particularly in solid-phase peptide synthesis, due to its stability and ease of removal under mild conditions. Additionally, it plays a role in various biochemical applications, including studies related to protein structure and function. As with many amino acid derivatives, it is important to handle this compound with care, following appropriate safety protocols to avoid any potential hazards associated with its use.
