Abstract

Imidazolylsilanes are highly useful coupling reagents for peptide synthesis from N-,C-terminal unprotected amino acids with amino acid tert-butyl esters. An optional deprotection of the tert-butyl ester at the C-terminus and cyclization sequentially proceed to afford silacyclic dipeptides, that can act as both nucleophiles and electrophiles for further peptide elongation.
