โฆ Synopsis
Papain catalyzed synthesis of glyceryl esters of BOC(Z)-protected amino acids and peptides was performed at 40-50ยฐC in a 50 molar excess of glycerol. Equilibrium was achieved in 6-7 h. The maximal yield of esters (50-70%) was obtained at 10% of water and pH 3.2-3.4. A lower water concentration resulted in a sharp decrease of the ester yield. The synthesized glyceryl esters of neutral amino acids are good substrates for trypsin and can be used for peptide synthesis catalyzed for trypsin. Glycerol esters are also good substrates for other enzymes possessing esterase activity.

One of the most facile routes to prepare carboxylate-substituted imidazolines is by the palladium-catalyzed coupling of an imine, carbon monoxide, and an acid chloride. In this reaction, a peptide unit is constructed and directly incorporated into the heterocyclic core.

There is a general fascination with regard to the origin of life on Earth. There is an intriguing possibility that prebiotic precursors of life occurred in the interstellar space and were then transported to the early Earth by comets, asteroids and meteorites. It is probable that some part of the pr
