A Lewis-acid-catalyzed method for the substrate-directed formation of peptide bonds has been developed, and this powerful approach is utilized for the new "remote" activation of carboxyl groups under solvent-free conditions. The presented method has the following advantages: (1) the high-yielding peptide synthesis uses a tantalum catalyst for any amino acids; (2) the reaction proceeds without any racemization; (3) the new substrate-directed chemical ligation using the titanium catalyst is applicable to convergent peptide synthesis. These advantages overcome some of the unresolved problems in classical peptide synthesis.

The use of various quaternary ammonium salts as chiral phase-transfer catalysts allowed effective and stereoselective radiochemical [11C]alkylation to obtain functionalized dipeptides. We herein report a broadly applicable procedure for the asymmetric [11C]alkylation of dipeptides to give labeled N-terminal peptides by using different [11C]alkyl halides. Contended stereoselectivities of the reactions were observed by using 11C-labeled alkyl halides, [11C]methyl iodide and [11C]benzyl iodide, and diastereomeric ratios with different specialized catalysts of 95:5 and 90:10 were achieved, respectively. Accordingly, the straightforward synthesis of enantioenriched compounds should play a vital role in peptide-based radiopharmaceutical development and positron emission tomography imaging.

An efficient method has been developed for the direct amidification of carboxylic acids via sulfinylamides preformed in situ by the reaction of pure amines with prop-2- ene-1-sulfinyl chloride. The method can be applied to aliphatic acids, including pivalic acid, aromatic acids, and primary and secondary amines. It is compatible with acids bearing unprotected alcohol, phenol, and ketone moieties and applicable to the synthesis of peptides. It does not induce their a-epimerization.
