โฆ Synopsis
A competitive reaction of activated Boc-Ala-OH and Boc-Phe-OH with H-Leu-resin has been developed for assessing the relative efficiencies of different carbodiimides. This allowed a comparison of the efficiency of the carbodiimides N,N 0 -dicyclohexylcarbodiimide,N,N 0 -diisopropylcarbodiimide, N-tert-butyl-N 0 - methylcarbodiimide and N-tert-butyl-N 0 -ethylcarbodiimide. Comparable results were obtained when these reagents were used for the preformation of symmetrical anhydrides or of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole esters in situ. Differential incorporation was observed when asymmetrical carbodiimides were used for peptide bond formation by the direct carbodiimide procedure.

An efficient macrolactonization procedure using a polymer bound carbodiimide is described. The procedure uses the polymer supported reagent as a replacement for dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and thus considerably simplifies the workup for such reactions. Partitioning between macrolactone and diolide is s
