- Radiofluorination methods
-
The present invention relates to radiolabelled substitute benzene compounds for diagnostic imaging. The present invention provides methods for preparation of such compounds, in particular, preparation of novel compounds which serve as precursors for 18F-labeling, and the use of thus 18F-labeled compounds for diagnostic imaging.

- Method of forming N-protected amino acid thiohydantoins
-
A method of forming a thiohydantoin from an N-protected amino acid. The method employs a uronium or phosphonium compound to activate the terminal carboxyl group of the amino acid and a thiocyanate reagent to cyclize the activated amino acid to the thio-hydantoin. The thiohydantoin can be cleaved from its N-protecting group, for use in C-terminal peptide sequencing. Particularly preferred uronium compounds include salts of 2-chlorouronium. Preferred thiocyanate reagents include trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate and crown ether adducts of metallothiocyanates, such as the 18-crown-6 adduct of KSCN.

- NEW COUPLING REAGENTS IN PEPTIDE CHEMISTRY
-
2-(1H-Benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HBTU) has been applied as coupling reagent to solid phase peptide synthesis.Furthermore, a general synthetic procedure for new derivatives of different N-hydroxy compounds has been developed.They either act as excellent activating reagents causing low racemization during condensation of peptide segments or are useful tools for the formation of active esters suitable for couplings in mixed aqueous / organic media, respectively.
