Z-D-tyrosine

Description:
Z-D-tyrosine, also known as Z-D-Tyr, is a derivative of the amino acid tyrosine, characterized by the presence of a protective Z (benzyloxycarbonyl) group on the amino group. This modification enhances its stability and solubility, making it useful in peptide synthesis and biochemical applications. The compound retains the essential properties of tyrosine, including its role as a precursor for neurotransmitters such as dopamine, norepinephrine, and epinephrine. Z-D-tyrosine is typically a white to off-white crystalline powder, and it is soluble in organic solvents like dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and methanol, but less soluble in water. Its molecular structure allows for various chemical reactions, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, Z-D-tyrosine can be utilized in research settings to study protein interactions and enzyme activity due to its ability to mimic natural amino acids while providing a protective group that can be removed under specific conditions. Overall, Z-D-tyrosine serves as an important tool in both synthetic and biological chemistry.
