INTRODUCTION

 Peptide synthesis is the production of peptides, compounds where


multiple amino acids are linked via amide bonds, also known as 
peptide bonds.
 Peptides are chemically synthesized by the condensation reaction of the 
carboxyl group of one amino acid to the amino group of another.
 Chemical peptide synthesis most commonly starts at the carboxyl end of
the peptide (C-terminus), and proceeds toward the amino-terminus (N-
terminus).
PEPTIDE BOND FORMATION

 A key step in the peptide production process is the formation of the


peptide bond. This requires the activation of a carboxylic acid, which is
usually carried out using the peptide coupling reagents.
 If the activation of carboxylic acid is slow, the coupling reagents will be
degraded and will no longer be able to activate the carboxyl function.
COUPLING REAGENTS

 The coupling reaction in witch coupling reagents are used in the peptide
bond formation in peptide synthesis .
The coupling reagents are:

I. Carbodiimides
II. Uronium salts
III. Phosphonium and aminium salts
IV. Fluoroformanidimium coupling reagenst
V. Organophosphorus reagents
CARBODIIMIDES

 Carbodiimides Coupling: Carbodiimides react with carboxylic acids to


form O-acylisourea mixed anhydrides which react directly with amines
to give amides and a urea by-product.

DCC- N,NO-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide
DIC-Diisopropyl carbodiimide
EDC- 1-13-(dimethylamino)propylj-3-ethylcarbodiimide
 Coupling:
URONIUM SALTS

 A one-pot solution in which the active ester is prepared in situ as an


intermediate and then reacts with the amine
 In solution, benzotriazole uronium species (O-form) are in
equilibrium with the guanidinium species (N-form)

HATU (1-[Bis(dimethylamino)methylene]-1H-1,2,3-triazolo[4,5-
b]pyridinium 3-oxide hexafluorophosphate,
HBTU (2-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethyluronium
hexafluorophosphate
HCTU -1H-Benzotriazolium 1-[bis(dimethyl-amino)methylene]-5-
chloro-hexafluorophosphate (1-),3-oxide
 Coupling:
PHOSPHONIUM AND AMINIUM SALT

 The use of phosphonium salts as coupling reagents such as,


(benzotriazol-1-yloxy)tris (dimethylamino) phosphonium
hexafluorophosphate (BOP) and (benzotriazol-1yloxy)tris
(pyrrolidino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBOP).

 Phosphonium salts derived from HOAt, such as (7-azabenzotriazol-1-


yloxy)tris(di methylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate(AOP)
and (7-azabenzotriazol-1yloxy)tris (pyrrolidino) phosphonium
hexafluorophosphate(PYAOP) have also been prepared and are
generally more efficient than BOP and PyBOP as coupling reagents.
FLUOROFORMAMIDINIUM COUPLING REAGENTS

 Among the most reactive of the common coupling reagents are the
preformed amino acid fluorides.
 The amidinium reagents are1,1,3,3-tetramethyl fluoroformamidinium
hexafluorophosphate (TFFH), bis(tetramethylene) fluoroformamidinium
hexafluorophosphate (BTFFH) and 1,3-dimethyl-2-fluoro-4,5-dihydro-
1H imidazolium hexafluorophosphate (DFIH) these reagent used in
peptide synthesis.
ORGANOPHOSPHORUS REAGENTS

 The Organophosphorus reagents are diphenyl phosphorochloridate and


These reagents are crystalline and stable for long-term storage.
