Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A facile screening method for finding active catalysts from the peptide library constructed in a combinatorial manner has been established. With this method, novel bifunctional peptide catalysts having N-terminal proline and a histidyl residue ware developed. The screening in aqueous media afforded the prolyl peptide with a lysine residue. In the presence of these peptide catalysts, asymmetric Michael addition could be performed with high efficiency and enantioselectivity. Notably, two kinds of histidine-containing peptides showed opposite enantioselectivities, although both peptides had common N-terminal residues. By applying the screening method to the reaction that could not be performed with other catalysts, the peptide effective for that reaction was successfully identified.
