Research Abstract |
Facile and large-scale synthesis of stereoselectively stable isotope-labeled amino acids, which can promote the efficiency of NMR protein structure determination, was investigated. In this work, a novel synthetic method for unsaturated pyroglutaminol derivatives, key intermediates for eight kinds of labeled amino acids, has been developed and gram-scale syntheses of deuterated prolines and glutamic acids were achieved. Using the obtained proline, some dipeptides were prepared and a systematic conformational analysis was carried out. With the help of selective deuterium-labeling, it becomes feasible to monitor the proline ring puckering by means of simple 1D NMR spectroscopy.
