Characterization of Nα-Fmoc-protected dipeptide isomers by electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MSn): Effect of protecting group on fragmentation of dipeptides

A series of positional isomeric pairs of Fmoc-protected dipeptides, Fmoc-Gly-Xxx-OY/Fmoc-Xxx-Gly-OY (Xxx = Ala, Val, Leu, Phe) and Fmoc-Ala-Xxx-OY/Fmoc-Xxx-Ala-OY (Xxx = Leu, Phe) (Fmoc = [(9-fluorenylmethyl) oxy]carbonyl) and Y = CH3/H), have been characterized and differentiated by both positive and negative ion electrospray ionization ion-trap tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-IT-MSn). In contrast to the behavior of reported unprotected dipeptide isomers which mainly produce y 1+ and/or a1+ ions, the protonated Fmoc-Xxx-Gly-OY, Fmoc-Ala-Xxx-OY and Fmoc-Xxx-Ala-OY yield significant b 1+ ions. These ions are formed, presumably with stable protonated aziridinone structures. However, the peptides with Gly- at the N-terminus do not form b1+ ions. The [M + H]+ ions of all the peptides undergo a McLafferty-type rearrangement followed by loss of CO2 to form [M + H-Fmoc + H]+. The MS3 collision-induced dissociation (CID) of these ions helps distinguish the pairs of isomeric dipeptides studied in this work. Further, negative ion MS 3 CID has also been found to be useful for differentiating these isomeric peptide acids. The MS3 of [M-H-Fmoc + H]- of isomeric peptide acids produce c1-, z1 - and y1- ions. Thus the present study of Fmoc-protected peptides provides additional information on mass spectral characterization of the dipeptides and distinguishes the positional isomers. Copyright
A mild and selective method for the cleavage of tert-butyl esters
Jackson, Randy W

A method for the cleavage of t-butyl esters using silica gel in refluxing toluene is reported. Good yields of the corresponding carboxylic acids are obtained, and the reaction is selective for t-butyl esters over t-butyl ethers and trimethylsilylethyl (TMSE) esters.
