N,N ′-Diisopropylcarbodiimide is a carbodiimide used in peptide synthesis. [1] [2] As a liquid, it is easier to handle than the commonly used N,N ′-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, a waxy solid. In addition, N,N ′-diisopropylurea, its byproduct in many chemical reactions, is soluble in most organic solvents, a property that facilitates work-up.
Scheme of solid-phase peptides synthesis (SPPS) on a resin as solid support with protected amino acids. The deprotection is usually done using a base such as piperidine. This is followed by a coupling step (a protected amino acid is added) to the growing peptide chain. Coupling reagents (e.g. HBTU, HATU, or DIC) are employed to help form the ...
HATU (Hexafluorophosphate Azabenzotriazole Tetramethyl Uronium) is a reagent used in peptide coupling chemistry to generate an active ester from a carboxylic acid. HATU is used along with Hünig's base (N,N-diisopropylethylamine), or triethylamine to form amide bonds. Typically DMF is used as solvent, although other polar aprotic solvents can ...
N,N′-Dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC or DCCD) [1] is an organic compound with the chemical formula (C 6 H 11 N) 2 C. It is a waxy white solid with a sweet odor. Its primary use is to couple amino acids during artificial peptide synthesis.
Common uses for this carbodiimide include peptide synthesis, protein crosslinking to nucleic acids, but also in the preparation of immunoconjugates. EDC is often used in combination with N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) for the immobilisation of large biomolecules. Recent work has also used EDC to assess the structure state of uracil nucleobases in RNA.
HBTU (Hexafluorophosphate Benzotriazole Tetramethyl Uronium) is a coupling reagent used in solid phase peptide synthesis. It was introduced in 1978 and shows resistance against racemization. [3] [4] It is used because of its mild activating properties. [5]

DEPBT (3-(diethoxyphosphoryloxy)-1,2,3-benzotriazin-4(3H)-one) is a peptide coupling reagent used in peptide synthesis.It shows remarkable resistance to racemization. [1]Fmoc-Dab(Mtt)-OH, a commercially available amino acid building block for solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), was proven to undergo rapid lactamization, instead of reacting with the N-terminal end of the peptide.
