Description

Z-dehydroalanine methyl ester is a stereochemically pure isomer of dehydroalanine. It is a synthetic biomolecule, which can be used to synthesize peptides and analogues with different conformational properties. The synthesis of Z-dehydroalanine methyl ester involves the formation of an enolate from the corresponding carboxylate and the reaction with methylamine. This process generates a molecule that has different reactivity than its R-enantiomer counterpart due to the presence of a stereogenic center at carbon 2.
