description

The disulfide-based Cysteine thiol protecting group sec-isoamyl mercaptan (SIT) is fully compatible with Fmoc/tBu SPPS. In comparison to StBu, it is sterically less hindered and can therefore be easily removed upon treatment with dithiothreitol.

In a comparative study, the deprotection rate of Fmoc-Cys(StBu)-OH and Fmoc-Cys(SIT)-OH by using DTT as reducing agent was monitored by HPLC for 500 min. After that time, StBu was only partially (60%) removed. SIT was totally removed after 160 min. The addition of water (5%) even speeds the reaction: StBu was completely removed in 250 min; SIT in <40 min. Furthermore, this compound expands the toolbox of orthogonal protecting groups required for synthesis of peptides containing multiple disulfide bridges.
