Abstract
The synthesis of Fmoc-aminoacyl-N-ethyl-S-triphenylmethylcysteine, an N- to S-acyl migratory device for the preparation of peptide thioesters by Fmoc-SPPS (solid-phase peptide synthesis) is described. Condensation of Fmoc-aminoacyl pentafluorophenyl ester and N-ethyl-S-triphenylmethylcysteine was efficiently performed in the presence of HOOBt (3-hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-4-oxo-1,2,3-benzotriazine) in DMF. A small amount of diastereomer yielded during the reaction was easily separated by HPLC purification and the highly pure devices were obtained for most of the proteinogenic amino acids.
This study efficiently synthesized Fmoc-aminoacyl-N-ethyl-S-triphenylmethylcysteine, a key device for peptide thioester synthesis, using HOOBt in DMF, resulting in highly pure devices for most protein
