Abstract
The O-acyl isopeptide method has recently gained attention as an efficient protocol for the synthesis of ‘difficult sequence‘ peptides. Herein, synthesis of three oligopeptides of different length, a pentapeptide Gly-Leu-Leu-Ser-Val, a heptapeptide fragment 285-291 of transmembrane (M7-24-T40) Ala-Val-Leu-Ser-Leu-Pro-Leu and a decapeptide, Gly- Leu-Leu-Ser-Val-Leu-Gly-Ser-Val-Ala were demonstrated in solution phase by employing O-acyl isopeptide method. The peptides were established through an efficient pH triggered intramolecular O→N acyl migration under physiological conditions. The reactions were clean and complete in appreciable length of time.
