The present invention has an object of providing a peptide synthesis method using a carrier capable of reversibly repeating the dissolved state and the insolubilized state, wherein the problem of an amino acid active species existing in the reaction system in de-protection reaction can be easily solved. The present invention provides a peptide synthesis method comprising the following steps: a step of condensing an N-Fmoc protected amino acid with a peptide having a C-terminal protected with a carrier which is crystallized according to a change of a composition of a dissolving solvent, in the presence of a condensing agent, to obtain an N-Fmoc-C-carrier protected peptide, a step of adding an alkylamine having 1 to 14 carbon atoms or hydroxyl amine to the reaction system, a step of de-protecting the N-terminal, and a step of changing the composition of the solvent dissolving the C-carrier protected peptide, to crystallize and separate the peptide.

Peptide synthesis method

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cross-linked peptide containing a novel non-peptide cross-linked structure, and a method for synthesizing the same. A cross-linked peptide having a novel non-peptide cross-linked structure, a useful intermediate for synthesizing the cross-linked peptide, and a method for synthesizing the novel cross-linked peptide and the intermediate are provided. The cross-linked peptide is characterized by having an &#x2014;NR&#x2014; bond in the cross-linked structure. By using the method for synthesizing the cross-linked peptide, a cross-link can be freely designed and an change can be freely made to a cross-link.

A solvent system which comprises two or more single organic solvents or two or more mixed organic solvents, characterized in that the state of the solvent system can be reversibly changed, with changing temperature conditions, from one state which is a homogeneously compatibilized mixed solvent system in which the two or more single or more mixed organic solvents constituting the solvent system have been homogeneously compatibilized and mixed to the other state which is a separated solvent system made up of two or more separated phases respectively consisting mainly of the two or more single or mixed organic solvents constituting solvent system, and that when the solvent system is the homogeneously mixed solvent system, a chemical component which is soluble in only one of the single or mixed organic solvents can be evenly dissolved in the system; and a process for producing a compound with the solvent system.

Compatible-multiphase organic solvent system

A reagent for organic synthesis with which a chemical reaction can be conducted in a liquid phase and unnecessary compound(s) can be easily separated at low cost from the liquid phase after completion of the reaction. The reagent for organic synthesis reversibly changes from a liquid-phase state to a solid-phase state with changes in solution composition and/or solution temperature, and is for use in organic synthesis reactions. This reagent for organic syntheses facilitates process development. With the reagent, research on and development of, e.g., medicines through, e.g., compound library synthesis, etc. can be accelerated. It can hence contribute to technical innovations in the biochemical industry and chemical industry.
