Abstract:
The guanidinylation of a peptide chain on a polymeric support under microwave conditions using derivatives of thioureas—S-alkylisothioureas, pyrazole-carboxamidine, and guanidine as guanidinylating reagents is described. The best results are obtained with N,N′-di-Z-S-methylisothiourea and N,N′-di-Z(2-Cl)-S-methylisothiourea. It is found that guanidinylation with reagents containing Boc groups is accompanied by side reactions.
