The amidation and esterification of carboxylic acids with amines and hydroxyl group-containing compounds, respectively, are effected without incurring the drawbacks of reaction equilibrium by the reaction of the reactants, one of which has been activated in the reactive group by contact with a phosphonium salt obtained by reacting a phosphorous ester or phosphorous monoester salt with an organic base such as pyridine and an oxidizing agent such as halogens and mono or divalent mercury halide or acetate. The amidation can be applied to the preparation of peptides by the reaction of amino acids and/or peptides in which one of the reactive groups have been protected.
通过将含有
氨基和羟基的化合物分别与
羧酸进行酰胺化和酯化,而不会产生反应平衡的缺点,是通过反应物之一与
磷酸铵盐接触而激活反应基团来实现的。
磷酸铵盐是通过将
磷酸酯或
磷酸单酯盐与有机碱(如
吡啶)和氧化剂(如卤素和一价或二价
汞卤化物或
醋酸盐)反应而得到的。酰胺化可以应用于通过保护反应基团中的一个来反应
氨基酸和/或肽制备肽。
