Search for optimal coupling reagent in multiple peptide synthesizer.
Ten different coupling reagents and their combinations were tested in parallel in the synthesis of four model peptide sequences. Significant differences were found between uronium and phosphonium salt-based reagents and carbodiimide. Diisopropylcarbodiimide was identified as an optimal reagent based on the purity of the product, stability of the reagent, and convenience of handling on plate-based multiple parallel centrifugation synthesizer.
