title: Cu(OBt)2 and Cu(OAt)2, copper(II)-based racemization suppressors ready for use in fully automated solid-phase peptide synthesis.
abstract: The complexes Cu(OBt)2 and Cu(OAt)2, which are derived from copper(II) and HOBt and HOAt, respectively, are shown to be more effective in suppressing racemization during solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) than are those compounds currently being used for this purpose. These compounds can readily be used in conjunction with the commonly applied coupling reagents in fully automated systems for solid-phase peptide chemistry.
