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

Solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), a preferred synthetic procedure, generates by-products and effluents in multiple equivalents for one equivalent of desired product. Presented herein is the use of a fast and efficient coupling protocol for SPPS using a benzoisothiazolone (BIT), which can be fully recycled. The BIT, as redox activator, works under very mild conditions and generates minimal amount of waste. As a case study, the BIT coupling protocol is applied to the synthesis of side chain of the recently discovered antibiotic, teixobactin.

A novel route for the chloromethylation of polystyrene grafted Multipin supports (Synphase(TM) Crowns) has been developed. Aminomethylated polystyrene was converted into chloromethylated polystyrene via a simple diazotisation reaction. The modified graft polymer was assessed by solid phase synthesis of a model dipeptide.

Sustainable and efficient manufacturing methods for N-methylated peptides remain underexplored despite growing interest in therapeutic N-methylated peptides within the pharmaceutical industry. A methodology for the coupling of C-terminally unprotected N-methylamino acids mediated by an isostearic acid halide (ISTAX) and silylating reagent has been developed. This approach allows for the coupling of a wide variety of amino acids and peptides in high yields under mild conditions without the need for a C-terminal deprotection step in the process of C-terminal elongation. These advantages make this a useful synthetic method for the production of peptide therapeutics and diagnostics containing N-methylamino acids.
α-N-Protected dipeptide acids: A simple and efficient synthesis via the easily accessible mixed anhydride method using free amino acids in DMSO and tetrabutylammonium hydroxide

, p. 315 - 324 (2013/06/05)
The importance of dipeptides both in medicinal and pharmacological fields is well documented and many efforts have been made to find simple and efficient methods for their synthesis. For this reason, we have investigated the synthesis of α-N-protected dipeptide acids by reacting the easily accessible mixed anhydride of α-N-protected amino acids with free amino acids under different reaction conditions. The combination of TBA-OH and DMSO has been found to be the best to overcome the low solubility of amino acids in organic solvents. Under these experimental conditions, the homogeneous phase condensation reaction occurs rapidly and without detectable epimerization. The present method is also applicable to side-chain unprotected Tyr, Trp, Glu, and Asp but not Lys. This latter residue is able to engage two molecules of mixed anhydride giving the corresponding isotripeptide. Moreover, the applicability of this protocol for the synthesis of tri- and tetrapeptides has been tested. This approach reduces the need for protecting groups, is cost effective, scalable, and yields dipeptide acids that can be used as building blocks in the synthesis of larger peptides.
