Abstract
The elimination of side-chain orthogonal protective groups of arginine and histidine is critical to improve solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) sustainability through an increase in the peptide atom economy (AE) and decrease in impurities generated during the final cleavage step. The combination of Oxyma Pure and tertbutyl ethyl carbodiimide (TBEC) in the correct ratio allowed the use of side-chain free arginine and histidine in green solvents. Etelcalcetide and vasopressin intermediates as well as critical key fragments of liraglutide and semaglutide were successfully synthetized via SPPS using optimized conditions. In addition, the Oxyma Pure/TBEC protocol in NBP/DMC was successfully applied to a sequence containing side-chain unprotected arginine, histidine, tryptophan and tyrosine.
期刊介绍:
Green Chemistry is a journal that provides a unique forum for the publication of innovative research on the development of alternative green and sustainable technologies. The scope of Green Chemistry is based on the definition proposed by Anastas and Warner (Green Chemistry: Theory and Practice, P T Anastas and J C Warner, Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1998), which defines green chemistry as the utilisation of a set of principles that reduces or eliminates the use or generation of hazardous substances in the design, manufacture and application of chemical products. Green Chemistry aims to reduce the environmental impact of the chemical enterprise by developing a technology base that is inherently non-toxic to living things and the environment. The journal welcomes submissions on all aspects of research relating to this endeavor and publishes original and significant cutting-edge research that is likely to be of wide general appeal. For a work to be published, it must present a significant advance in green chemistry, including a comparison with existing methods and a demonstration of advantages over those methods.
