Description

Cbz-Gly-Gly CAS NO 2566-19-0 is a protected dipeptide derivative, widely recognized as a crucial building block in peptide synthesis. Its primary value lies in providing a versatile and reactive intermediate for constructing more complex peptide chains, with the carboxybenzyl (Cbz) group offering orthogonal protection for the N-terminus. This compound is essential for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and life sciences sectors who require high-purity intermediates for drug discovery and development.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block in the solid-phase and solution-phase synthesis of therapeutic peptides and peptidomimetics.
• Biochemical Research: Used in academic and industrial R&D for studying enzyme-substrate interactions, peptide structure-activity relationships (SAR), and metabolic pathways.
• Proteomics & Diagnostics: Serves as a precursor for synthesizing specialized peptide probes, standards, and reagents used in diagnostic assays and proteomic analysis.
• Material Science: Potential applications in the development of novel biomaterials, peptide-based polymers, and surface coatings.
• Custom Synthesis: A fundamental starting material for contract research organizations (CROs) and CDMOs producing custom peptides for clients.

Quality Control

Our Cbz-Gly-Gly is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. We provide comprehensive analytical data, including HPLC purity, chiral purity (where applicable), and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are available for every batch and supplied upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
