A photoremovable auxiliary for use in peptide synthesis via the native chemical ligation method is described. A 2-mercapto-1-(2-nitrophenyl)ethylamine (Mnpe-amine) moiety was attached to the N-terminus of a peptide via the periodate oxidation of a seryl peptide. The resulting peptide was then ligated to a peptide thioester, and UV (365 nm) irradiation resulted in the removal of the auxiliary from the peptide. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
