N-cbz-ala-leu

Description:
N-Cbz-ala-leu, also known as N-carbobenzyloxy-alanine-leucine, is a dipeptide derivative characterized by the presence of a carbobenzyloxy (Cbz) protecting group on the alanine residue. This compound is typically used in peptide synthesis and research due to its stability and ability to protect the amino group during chemical reactions. The Cbz group enhances the lipophilicity of the molecule, facilitating its incorporation into various organic reactions. N-Cbz-ala-leu is generally soluble in organic solvents such as dichloromethane and dimethylformamide, but its solubility in water is limited. The compound can undergo hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions, leading to the release of the free amino acids. Its structural features make it a valuable intermediate in the synthesis of more complex peptides and proteins. Additionally, the presence of both alanine and leucine contributes to its potential biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry and drug development.
