Abstract

Thermolysin, α-chymotrypsin, and papain were used as biocatalysts for the coupling of several carboxyl components to silica-supported leucine amide as a nucleophile. A spacer length of 21 covalent bonds corresponding to 7 amino acid residues was required for successful coupling. This approach offers the possibility of using proteases for racemization-free segment condensations on insoluble polymeric supports.

Zusammenfassung

Thermolysin, α-Chymotrypsin und Papain wurden als Biokatalysatoren für die Kupplung verschiedener Carboxylkomponenten an kieselgel-gebundenes Leucinamid als Nucleophil eingesetzt. Für erfolgreiche Kupplungen war eine Spacerlänge von 21 kovalenten Bindungen entsprechend 7 Aminosäureresten erforderlich. Diese Synthesevariante eröffnet die Möglichkeit, racemisierungsfreie Segmentkondensationen an unlöslichen polymeren Trägern mit Hilfe von Proteasen durchzuführen.
