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.

versatile N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) directly from amino acids and CO2 using n-propylphosphonic anhydride. Most of the NCAs were isolated with >95% purity after simple workup, avoiding the need for tedious purification procedures typically required using conventional methods. Because the reagents and conditions employed are mild, tandem reactions with moisture-sensitive NCAs were carried out to transform
Activation of Boc-amino acids and Boc-N-methyl amino acids leads to the corresponding NCA. This side reaction explains the low yields obtained when coupling N-methyl amino acids. It was not observed with the Z- or Fmoc-protective groups.
