Description:N-Cbz-gly-gly, also known as N-carbobenzyloxyglycylglycine, is a dipeptide derivative characterized by the presence of a carbobenzyloxy (Cbz) protecting group on the amino group of the first glycine residue. This compound is typically used in peptide synthesis and as an intermediate in the preparation of more complex peptides. Its structure consists of two glycine units linked by a peptide bond, with the Cbz group providing stability and protecting the amino functionality from unwanted reactions during synthesis. N-Cbz-gly-gly is generally soluble in polar organic solvents, and its properties can be influenced by the presence of the Cbz group, which enhances lipophilicity compared to unprotected glycine. The compound is often utilized in research and pharmaceutical applications, particularly in the development of peptide-based drugs and in studies involving peptide interactions. As with many peptide derivatives, it is important to handle N-Cbz-gly-gly with care, following appropriate safety protocols due to potential reactivity and biological activity.
