Coupling N-Methylated Amino Acids Using PyBroP and PyCloP Halogenophosphonium Salts: Mechanism and Fields of Application
摘要:
PyBroP (1) and PyCloP (2), two halotripyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphates, are peptide-coupling reagents highly efficient for coupling N-methylated amino esters, in contrast with PyBOP (3), the hydroxybenzotriazolyl analogue. These halogenophosphonium salts 1 and 2 are convenient (one-pot reactions) stable solids soluble in conventional solvents. Use of them gave an excellent peptide yield with essentially no epimerization. Activation with these reagents probably involves the formation of an (acyloxy)phosphonium, as shown in the case of 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoic acid activation. In the case of reagents 1 and 2, oxazolone and/or a symmetrical anhydride were intermediates which were rapidly aminolyzed. In contrast, the benzotriazolyl ester intermediate which was formed with PyBOP (3) was poorly reactive with N-methylated amino esters. PyBroP (1) and PyCloP (2) were less efficient in the coupling of some Boc-amino acids because of N-carboxyanhydride formation; this was particularly the case when Boc-Val-OH or Boc-MeVal-OH was coupled with MeVal-OMe.
BroP (bromo tris(dimethylamino) phosphonium hexafluorophosphate) is a particularly suitable reagent for coupling N-methylated aminoacids. It is stable and gives very high yields in short reaction times. Dipeptides are obtained without appreciable epimerization.

A highly efficient couplingreagent, 2-bromo-3-ethyl-4-methyl thiazolium tetrafluoroborate (BEMT), was designed, synthesized and successfully applied to the synthesis of oligopeptides containing N-alkyl or α-C-dialkyl aminoacids. Its efficiency was evaluated by HPLC and 1H NMR methods, and demonstrated by synthesis of a number of N-methyl-rich peptide segments with good yields and negligible racemization
