β¦ Synopsis
The peptide synthesis from N-acetyl-L-tyrosine ethyl ester (Ac-Tyr-OEt) and amino acid amides was realized using o~-chymotrypsin (CT) in acetonitrile (MeCN) or acetonitrile/supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2) containing small amounts of water. In both solvent systems there was an optimum water content for peptide synthesis, above which peptide hydrolysis became more important. After an incubation for 5 hours, the yields of the peptide was 64 % in MeCN and 91% in MeCN/SCCO2, respectively.
