Z-L-Ala-L-Ala-OMe

Product Overview

Z-L-Ala-L-Ala-OMe, also known as Z-L-Alanyl-L-Alanine Methyl Ester, is a highly refined protected dipeptide intermediate essential for advanced pharmaceutical synthesis. This compound features a benzyloxycarbonyl (Z or Cbz) protecting group on the N-terminus and a methyl ester on the C-terminus, making it an ideal building block for stepwise peptide assembly. Our manufacturing process ensures exceptional batch-to-batch consistency, meeting the rigorous demands of medicinal chemistry and process development teams worldwide.

As a key structural motif in peptide chemistry, this alanine derivative offers superior stability and reactivity profiles. It is extensively utilized in the construction of larger peptide chains where precise stereochemistry and protection group orthogonality are critical. We supply this material under strict quality control protocols, guaranteeing high optical purity and minimal impurities that could interfere with downstream coupling reactions.
