ABSTRACT:
A novel and convenient process is described for providing protected amino acids and activating agents for solid phase synthesis which drastically reduces the capital costs of equipment required for the preparation of peptides. The two normally very reactive reagents, when mixed as anhydrous powders are shelf stable and yet form an active compound rapidly when mixed together in solution. This invention presents a method for combining these highly reactive dry solids in a manner which makes them unreactive and shelf stable at room temperature for extended periods of time. Once the solids are dissolved in solvent, a highly reactive amino acid ester that can readily be used in solid phase peptide synthesis is formed. This method of delivery of reagents to an automated peptide synthesizer allowers a very simplified instrument to be constructed using fewer and less expensive components and significantly reducing the associated software required.
