Morpholine, which scores 7.5 in terms of greenness and is not a regulated substance, could be considered a strong contender for Fmoc removal in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS). Morpholine in dimethylformamide (DMF) (50%-60%) efficiently removes Fmoc in SPPS, minimizes the formation of diketopiperazine, and almost avoids the aspartimide formation. As a proof of concept, somatostatin has been synthesized using 50% morpholine in DMF with the same purity as when using 20% piperidine-DMF.
吗啉在绿色化学评分中得分为7.5且不属于受管制物质,在固相肽合成(SPPS)中可被视为用于脱除Fmoc的有力候选物。吗啉在二甲基甲酰胺(DMF)(50%-60%)中能有效地在SPPS中脱除Fmoc,将二酮哌嗪的形成降至最低,并且几乎能避免天冬酰胺的形成。作为概念验证,已使用50%吗啉的DMF溶液合成了生长抑素,其纯度与使用20%哌啶-DMF时相同。
