Description

Z-L-tyrosine 4-nitrophenyl ester is a synthetic, inactivated amide that binds to the active site of enzyme, preventing its enzymatic activity. It prevents the formation of clots by cleaving the clotting factors and is used in blood transfusions. Z-L-tyrosine 4-nitrophenyl ester has been shown to inhibit the synthesis of surfactant and is used as an antiseptic. This drug can be prepared by reacting L-tyrosine with nitrophenol (NO2) in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium carbonate, followed by purification on sephadex g-100 columns. The product is then treated with hydrostatic pressure to remove any unreacted starting materials. This drug also has a sedimentation rate of about 1.5 x 10^6 cm/s.
