Abstract: | The N-adamantoyl derivatives of the esters of twenty-one di-peptides and eight tri-peptides containing the amino acids glycine, alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline, phenylalanine, glutamic acid, lysine, histidine, serine, threonine, methionine, S-benzylcysteine and tyrosine were prepared and their mass spectra determined. The spectra of all compounds were suitable for amino acid sequence determination. Mixtures containing N-adamantoyl dipeptide and tripeptide methyl esters were separated by thin-layer chromatography and the components identified by high resolution mass spectrometry. The mass spectrometric features of N-adamantoyl peptide esters are discussed and compared with those of other N-acyl peptide derivatives. |
