Product Description
Z-D-Tyrosine is a high-purity protected amino acid derivative widely used in peptide synthesis and biochemical research. The Z (benzyloxycarbonyl) protecting group ensures stability during synthesis while allowing selective deprotection under mild conditions. This compound is essential for researchers working on protein structure studies, enzyme substrate development, and custom peptide synthesis.
The 99.0% purity level makes it ideal for sensitive applications where contamination could compromise results. Whether you’re synthesizing custom peptides or studying tyrosine’s role in biological pathways, this product delivers consistent performance. Many researchers prefer Z-D-Tyrosine for its reliability in solid-phase peptide synthesis protocols.
At eqipped, we understand the importance of quality reagents in research. That’s why we source our Z-D-Tyrosine from trusted manufacturers like CDH, ensuring you receive a product that meets strict laboratory standards. The powder form allows for precise weighing and easy dissolution in appropriate solvents.

FAQs
What is the shelf life of Z-D-Tyrosine?
When stored properly in a cool, dry place, Z-D-Tyrosine typically maintains its purity for 2-3 years. Always check the certificate of analysis for specific batch information.
Can I use this for therapeutic applications?
This product is intended for research use only and not for human consumption or therapeutic applications. For clinical use, you would need pharmaceutical-grade materials with appropriate certifications.
What solvents work best for dissolving Z-D-Tyrosine?
Z-D-Tyrosine generally dissolves well in organic solvents like DMF, DMSO, and dichloromethane. For aqueous solutions, you may need to adjust the pH or use co-solvents.
How does the Z protecting group get removed?
The Z group can be removed through hydrogenolysis using palladium on carbon catalyst or by treatment with strong acids like HBr in acetic acid.
Is this product suitable for Fmoc-based peptide synthesis?
Yes, Z-D-Tyrosine works well in Fmoc chemistry. The Z group is orthogonal to Fmoc protection, allowing selective deprotection strategies in complex peptide synthesis.
