Z-Tyr-OMe

Z-Tyr-OMe (CAS No.: 13512-31-7, CAT No.: SRCZ-029) is a high-purity N-protected tyrosine methyl ester extensively used in peptide synthesis and medicinal chemistry. Also known as benzyloxycarbonyltyrosine methyl ester or Cbz-tyrosine methyl ester, this compound features the classic benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz or Z) protecting group at the amino terminus and a methyl ester at the carboxyl terminus. This arrangement enables selective amino protection as well as controlled carboxyl protection, facilitating efficient peptide bond formation and versatile synthetic modifications.

Delivered as a white to off-white crystalline powder with outstanding purity (≥98%), Z-Tyr-OMe exhibits excellent solubility in major organic solvents such as DMSO, DMF, and methanol, supporting both manual and automated peptide synthesis workflows. Its molecular formula is C₁₆H₁₇NO₅ and it has a molecular weight of 299.31 g/mol, making it an ideal building block for peptide therapeutics, medicinal chemistry research, and structural biology studies involving tyrosine-containing peptides.
