A novel protecting/activating strategy for β-hydroxy acids and its use in convergent peptide synthesis
(Chemical Equation Presented) β-Hydroxy acids were reacted with hexafluoroacetone and carbodiimides to give carboxy-activated six-membered lactones in good yields. On reaction with amines, the corresponding amides were obtained. We demonstrate the following applications of this protecting/ activating strategy: preparation of carboxamides in solution and on solid phase (both normal and reverse mode); recovery and reuse of the excess material in solid-phase synthesis; and convergent solid-phase peptide synthesis (CSPPS) with peptide segments bearing C-terminal Ser or Thr with very low levels of epimerization (1%, HPLC).
