Cbz-DL-β-phenylalanine

Description:
Cbz-DL-β-phenylalanine, also known as carbobenzoxy-DL-β-phenylalanine, is an amino acid derivative characterized by the presence of a carbobenzoxy (Cbz) protecting group on the amino group of β-phenylalanine. This compound is a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide, but generally insoluble in water. The Cbz group enhances the stability and lipophilicity of the amino acid, making it useful in peptide synthesis and as a building block in organic chemistry. The presence of the phenyl group contributes to its aromatic characteristics, influencing its reactivity and interactions in biological systems. Cbz-DL-β-phenylalanine is often utilized in the synthesis of peptides and pharmaceuticals, serving as a precursor for various bioactive compounds. Its properties make it valuable in research and development within medicinal chemistry and biochemistry. As with many amino acid derivatives, it is important to handle this compound with care, following appropriate safety protocols.
