RESUMEN
[reaction: see text] Polymer-supported O-methyl, O-benzyl, and O-allyl-isoureas were prepared by copper(II)-catalyzed reaction of polymer-supported carbodiimide with the corresponding alcohols. These polymer-supported reagents were successfully employed to convert a series of carboxylic acids to methyl, benzyl, or allyl esters, in good yields. The products were obtained with high purity (>95% by NMR) after a simple resin filtration-solvent evaporation sequence.
RESUMEN
Traditionally, solid-phase synthesis has relied on polystyrene-based resins for the synthesis of all kinds of peptides. However, due to their high hydrophobicity, these resins have certain limitations, particularly in the synthesis of complex peptides, and in such cases, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based resins are often found to give superior results. Another powerful strategy for expediting the assembly of complex peptides is to employ pseudoproline dipeptides. These derivatives disrupt the interactions among chains that are usually the cause of poor coupling yields in aggregated sequences. Here we report on an efficient stepwise solid-phase synthesis of RANTES (1-68) by combining the advantages of the totally PEG-based ChemMatrix resin and pseudoproline dipeptides.

The use of (31)P magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR for the quantitative determination of resin loadings and the building up of oxidation products was investigated. Loadings of polystyrene-bound phosphines were evaluated via addition of triphenyl phosphate as reference compound. Results for a series of phosphines are consistent with those obtained from well-established analytical methods. The compounds were also investigated with (13)C MAS NMR, and the individual oxidation stabilities were monitored under oxygen atmosphere.
