Abstract
Process for the manufacture of peptides which contain more than one disulphide bond characterized in that in one or two aminoacid sequences containing cysteine, in which disulphide bonds are to be produced, two cysteine radicals which are to be linked are protected by a mercapto-protective group R.sub.1 of the aralkyl type, two further cysteine radicals are protected by an acylaminomethyl group R.sub.2, the protective groups R.sub.1 are removed by treatment with iodine in the presence of a polyhalogenated lower aliphatic hydroxy compound or oxo compound, or a corresponding lower alkanoic acid lower alkyl ester, at the same time forming the disulphide bond between these cysteine radicals, which are protected by R.sub.1, and at any desired point after removal of the polyhalogenated compound the second disulphide bridge is formed in the usual manner.
