Z-L-methionine methyl ester

Description:
Z-L-methionine methyl ester, with the CAS number 56762-93-7, is a derivative of the amino acid methionine, characterized by the presence of a methyl ester group and a protective Z (benzyloxycarbonyl) group. This compound is typically used in peptide synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and biochemicals. It is a white to off-white solid that is soluble in organic solvents such as methanol and ethanol, but has limited solubility in water. The Z group serves to protect the amino group during chemical reactions, allowing for selective modifications of the molecule. Z-L-methionine methyl ester retains the essential properties of methionine, including its role as a precursor for various biomolecules and its involvement in metabolic processes. Additionally, it is important in the study of protein synthesis and structure due to its incorporation into peptides. Proper handling and storage conditions are necessary to maintain its stability and reactivity in laboratory settings.
