Research Abstract |
Solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) is a well-established technique for the facile and rapid preparation of peptides, but it requires large amounts of organic solvents. Since the safe disposal of organic solvents is an important environmental issue, the ability to synthesize peptides in an aqueous medium would be preferable. In order to do so, water-soluble N-protected amino acids are necessary. We have successfully used the water-soluble N-protecting groups, 2-[phenyl(methyl)sulfonio]ethoxycarbonyl (Pms), ethanesulfonylethoxycarbonyl (Esc) and 2-(4-sulfophenylsulfonyl)ethoxycarbonyl (Sps), for the SPPS of Leu-enkephalin amide in water.
