1. Perfluoro-tert-butanol for selective on-resin detritylation: a mild alternative to traditionally used methods
Anita Wester, Anna Mette Hansen, Paul R Hansen, Henrik Franzyk Amino Acids. 2021 Sep;53(9):1455-1466. doi: 10.1007/s00726-021-03059-8. Epub 2021 Aug 19.
Solid-phase synthesis of cyclic, branched or side-chain-modified peptides typically involves introduction of a residue carrying a temporary side-chain protecting group that undergoes selective on-resin removal. In particular, Nα-Fmoc-Nε-(4-methyltriphenylmethyl) (Mtt)-protected lysine and its shorter analogues are commercially available and extensively used in this context. Nevertheless, rapid reliable methods for on-resin removal of Mtt groups in the presence of tert-butyloxycarbonyl (Boc) groups are needed. Current commonly used conditions involve low concentrations (1-3%) of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) in dichloromethane, albeit adjustment to each specific application is required to avoid premature removal of Boc groups or cleavage from the linker. Hence, a head-to-head comparison of several deprotection conditions was performed. The selected acids represent a wide range of acidity from TFA to trifluoroethanol. Also, on-resin removal of the N-(4-methoxytriphenylmethyl) (Mmt) and O-trityl groups (on serine) was investigated under similar conditions. The mildest conditions identified for Mtt deprotection involve successive treatments with 30% hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) or 30% perfluoro-tert-butanol [(CF3)3COH] in dichloromethane (3 × 5 or 3 × 15 min, respectively), while 30% HFIP, 30% (CF3)3COH, or 10% AcOH-20% trifluoroethanol (TFE) in CH2Cl2 (3 × 5 min) as well as 5% trichloroacetic acid in CH2Cl2 (3 × 2 min) enabled Mmt removal. Treatment with 1% TFA with/without 2% triisopropylsilane added (3 × 5 min), but also prolonged treatment with 30% (CF3)3COH (5 × 15 min), led to selective deprotection of an O-Trt group on a serine residue. In all cases, the sequences also contained N-Boc or O-tBu protecting groups, which were not affected by 30% HFIP or 30% (CF3)3COH even after a prolonged reaction time of 4 h. Finally, the optimized conditions involving HFIP or (CF3)3COH proved applicable also for selective deprotection of a longer resin-bound peptide [i.e., Ac-Gly-Leu-Leu-Lys(Mtt)-Arg(Pbf)-Ile-Lys(Boc)-Ser(tBu)-Leu-Leu-RAM-PS] as well as allowed for an almost complete deprotection of a Dab(Mtt) residue.
2. Efficient synthesis of CN2097 using in situ activation of sulfhydryl group
Shaban Darwish, Keykavous Parang, John Marshall, Dennis J Goebel, Rakesh Tiwari Tetrahedron Lett. 2017 Aug 2;58(31):3053-3056. doi: 10.1016/j.tetlet.2017.06.066. Epub 2017 Jun 23.
CN2097 (R7Cs-sCYK[KTE(β-Ala)]V) is a rationally designed peptidomimetic that shows effectiveness in preclinical models for the treatment of neurological disorders, such as Angelman syndrome, traumatic brain injury (TBI) and stroke. Because of its therapeutic activity for the treatment of human CNS disorders, there was an urgent need to develop an efficient strategy for large-scale synthesis of CN2097. The synthesis of CN2097 was accomplished using Fmoc/tBu solid phase chemistry in multiple steps. Two different peptide fragments (activated polyarginine peptide Npys-sCR7 and CYK[KTE(β-Ala)]V) were synthesized, followed by solution phase coupling in water. Activation of the polyarginine (CR7) was achieved in situ during cleavage of protected peptide (C(Trt)R(Pbf)7) from the Rink amide resin using 5 equiv. of 2,2-dithopyridine in TFA:TIS:H2O (95:2.5:2.5, v/v/v) for 4 h. The disulfide coupling was efficient which provided a 60% yield.
3. Global analysis of peptide cyclization efficiency
Amit Thakkar, Thi Ba Trinh, Dehua Pei ACS Comb Sci. 2013 Feb 11;15(2):120-9. doi: 10.1021/co300136j. Epub 2013 Jan 7.
Cyclic peptides are of considerable interest in drug discovery and nanotechnology. However, macrocyclization of peptides and other compounds has often been perceived as synthetically challenging and the cyclization yields are affected by several factors including the ring size, peptide sequence, and the reaction conditions. Through the screening of combinatorial peptide libraries, we analyzed the cyclization efficiency of >2 million peptide sequences to determine the effect of ring size, peptide sequence, and solvent on the backbone (N-to-C) cyclization of peptides. Our results show that on-resin cyclization of medium- and large-sized rings (cyclohexapeptides and above) with PyBOP is essentially quantitative for ≥ 99.96% of the sequences, with small amounts of dimer formation observed for <4% of these sequences. Cyclization of small rings (cyclotetrapeptides and cyclopentapeptides) is considerably more difficult and accompanied by significant cyclic dimer formation. Peptides that are difficult to cyclize are generally rich in Lys(Boc) and Arg(Pbf) residues as well as sterically hindered residues [e.g., Thr(tBu)] at the N-terminus. The majority of these difficult sequences can be cyclized to completion by the addition of aqueous additives to the cyclization reaction.
