Abstract: | In order to improve the stability of phenacyloxycarbamidomethyl (Pocam) group, a cysteine protecting group removable with zinc reduction, under acidic conditions, various alkyl substituents on the nitrogen atom of Pocam group were examined. As a result, attachment of an electron-withdrawing group improved the stability, and 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl (Tfe) group was most effective among four substituents tested. Tfe-Pocam group could be used in solid-phase peptide synthesis and peptide condensation reactions, and it was also useful for regioselective disulfide formation reactions. |
