N(alpha)-Z-S-benzyl-L-cysteine 4-nitro-phenyl ester

Description:
N(alpha)-Z-S-benzyl-L-cysteine 4-nitro-phenyl ester is a chemical compound characterized by its structure, which includes a benzyl group, a cysteine amino acid derivative, and a 4-nitrophenyl ester moiety. This compound is typically used in biochemical research, particularly in studies involving peptide synthesis and enzyme inhibition. The presence of the Z (benzyloxycarbonyl) protecting group on the amino group of cysteine allows for selective reactions, while the 4-nitrophenyl ester can serve as a leaving group in various chemical reactions. The compound is generally soluble in organic solvents, and its reactivity can be influenced by the functional groups present. As with many cysteine derivatives, it may exhibit properties such as nucleophilicity due to the thiol group, making it useful in various synthetic applications. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances, due to potential toxicity and reactivity.
