Synthesis of polypeptides by ring-opening polymerization of α-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides.
This chapter summarizes methods for the synthesis of polypeptides by ring-opening polymerization. Traditional and recently improved methods used to polymerize α-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) for the synthesis of homopolypeptides are described. Use of these methods and strategies for the preparation of block copolypeptides and side-chain-functionalized polypeptides are also presented, as...
متن کاملNonfouling Polypeptide Brushes via Surface-initiated Polymerization of N(ε) -oligo(ethylene glycol)succinate-L-lysine N-carboxyanhydride.
This contribution describes the preparation of nonfouling polypeptide brushes via surface-initiated ring-opening polymerization of oligo(ethylene glycol) modified L-lysine N-carboxyanhydrides. Circular dichroism experiments indicated that these surface-anchored polypeptide chains assume an α-helical conformation, which does not change between pH 4 and 9. Furthermore, nonspecific adsorption of f...
متن کاملSynthesis of Optically Active beta-Amino Acid N-Carboxyanhydrides.
Methodology has been developed for the general synthesis of optically active beta-amino acid N-carboxyanhydrides (beta-NCAs) through cyclization of N(beta)-Boc or N(beta)-Cbz beta-amino acids using phosphorus tribromide. The formation of beta-NCAs was confirmed by spectroscopy as well as an X-ray structural determination of beta-homoalanine-N-carboxyanhydride. The beta-NCA molecules could be po...
متن کاملLarge-scale synthesis of α-amino acid-N-carboxyanhydrides
Heteroand homopolymers prepared from α-amino acid-N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) monomers are widely useful products. The preparation of pure NCA monomers has been extensively studied in the past. Purification methods including repeated crystallizations, extraction, and flash column chromatography have been devised. However, these methods are not easily amendable to large-scale NCA preparations. Th...
متن کاملPolypeptoid brushes by surface-initiated polymerization of N-substituted glycine N-carboxyanhydrides.
Polypeptoid brushes were synthesized by surface-initiated polymerization of N-substituted glycine N-carboxyanhydrides on self-assembled amine monolayers. Using the presented grafting-from approach, polypeptoid brush thicknesses of approximately 40 nm could be obtained as compared to previously reported brush thicknesses of 4 nm. Moreover, hydrophilic, hydrophobic and amphiphilic polymer brushes...
