Some (p-hydroxyphenyl)benzylmethylsulfonium salts were prepared. These compounds generated a benzyl cation and converted not only N-acylamino acids but also N-acylpeptides into their corresponding benzyl esters without causing the racemization.

An automated synthesis system, which is suitable for repetitive syntheses using similar reaction procedures, was used to synthesize systematically a library of all possible dipeptides (25) and tripeptides (125) from 5 protected amino acids. The apparatus has also been applied to the automated synthesis of 10 fragment tripeptide derivatives that are constituents of the hormone PACAP-27. The measured molecular optical rotation values of the library of 125 tripeptides were found to correlate well with calculated values obtained by summation of the molecular optical rotation values for the constituent amino acids.

The properties and characteristic reactions of thioacylating reagents 1 are described.These reagents are able to introduce thioamide linkages into a growing peptide at a specific site in the sequence.The generality and efficiency of this methodology is demonstrated by the synthesis of the three monothioanalogues of tuftsin.
