Popis: Abstract: The present study explores conditions to activate the carboxyl group before the coupling of C-terrninus-AA with TMS-ITC. N-tert-butoxy-carbonyl amino acids (Boc-AAs) and Leucine Enkephalin were used as models and isobutyl chloroformate was used as a C-terminal activator. The reaction coupling activated AA with TMS­ ITC was temperature dependent. We also·report here a new, efficient, economical and ecological technique to separate the mixture of amino acids thiohydantoins (TH-AA).
