Z-Isonipecotic acid is an achiral, N-protected intermediate primarily used in pharmaceutical synthesis, where it serves as a Cbz-protected piperidine-4-carboxylic acid building block. It is a white crystalline solid. The 'Z' in its name refers to the benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) protecting group on the piperidine nitrogen, not to stereochemistry. This chemical has a CAS number of 10314-98-4, a molecular formula of C14H17NO4, and a molecular weight of 263.29 g/mol. It is stable at ambient storage conditions and requires handling with caution, as indicated by its "Warning" signal word. Molekula supplies Z-Isonipecotic acid from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
