Introduction of N-Cbz-L-Glutamic Acid 5-tert-Butyl Ester is a protected derivative of L-glutamic acid, used in peptide synthesis. It features two protecting groups:

N-Cbz (Carboxybenzyl) on the amino group (removable by hydrogenolysis).

tert-Butyl ester on the γ-carboxylic acid (cleavable with acid).

This dual protection allows selective reactions at the α-carboxylic acid during peptide chain assembly while preventing unwanted side reactions. It retains the natural L-configuration and is soluble in organic solvents. Commonly employed in drug discovery and solid-phase peptide synthesis, it ensures controlled deprotection steps. Handle with care (moisture/light-sensitive) and store under inert conditions. 

Application of N-Cbz-L-Glutamic Acid 5-tert-Butyl Ester is a chemically modified derivative of the amino acid L-glutamic acid, designed for use in organic synthesis, particularly in peptide chemistry. Below is a detailed breakdown:

Structure and Functional Groups

1. Core Structure: Based on L-glutamic acid, which has:

An α-amino group (NH?) at position 1.

Two carboxylic acid groups:

α-carboxylic acid (adjacent to the amino group).

γ-carboxylic acid (on the side chain, at position 5).

A three-carbon side chain.

2. Protecting Groups:

N-Cbz (Carboxybenzyl):

Protects the α-amino group (NH?) as a benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) group.

Provides stability during synthesis and is removable via hydrogenolysis (e.g., using H?/Pd).

5-tert-Butyl Ester:

Protects the γ-carboxylic acid (position 5) as a tert-butyl ester.

Stable under basic conditions but cleavable under acidic conditions (e.g., trifluoroacetic acid, TFA).

Key Applications

Peptide Synthesis:

Serves as a building block to incorporate glutamic acid into peptides while preventing unwanted side reactions at the amino and γ-carboxylic acid groups.

Enables selective deprotection and activation of the α-carboxylic acid for forming peptide bonds.

Medicinal Chemistry: Used in drug discovery to synthesize glutamic acid-containing compounds with controlled reactivity.

Properties

Physical Form: Typically a white to off-white crystalline powder.

Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents (e.g., DMF, DCM) but poorly soluble in water due to the tert-butyl ester.

Stereochemistry: Retains the natural L-configuration of glutamic acid, critical for biological activity.

Synthetic Utility

Orthogonal Protection:

Allows sequential deprotection (e.g., remove Cbz first via hydrogenolysis, then tert-butyl ester via acid).

Facilitates complex multi-step syntheses in peptide chains or functionalized molecules.

Safety and Handling

Stability: Sensitive to light, moisture, and strong acids/bases.

Hazards:

Use gloves/eye protection to avoid irritation.

Avoid inhaling dust; handle in a fume hood.

Storage: Keep in a cool, dry place under inert atmosphere (e.g., N?).

Alternate Names

Z-L-Glutamic Acid 5-OtBu Ester ("Z" = Cbz group).

CAS Number: 1676-73-9.

Example Use Case

In synthesizing a peptide containing glutamic acid:

1. Use N-Cbz-L-Glutamic acid 5-tert-butyl ester to couple the α-carboxylic acid to another amino acid.
2. Remove the Cbz group with H?/Pd to expose the amino group for further coupling.
3. Cleave the tert-butyl ester with TFA to free the γ-carboxylic acid in the final deprotection step.

This compound is essential for precision in synthetic organic chemistry, enabling controlled construction of bioactive molecules.
