Sequence: (Boc-Cys-OH)₂


As the disulfide bond can be cleaved under mild conditions (e.g. with trialkylphosphines) cystine derivatives are highly economic educts for synthesizing Cys derivatives. The cystine derivatives of fluorophores (e.g. J-1175) or the pNA derivatives may be chosen as educts for synthesizing Cys substrates.


Tai et al. could obtain asymmetric cystine peptides from (Boc-Cys-OH)₂ by enzymatic catalysis with immobilized papain. Oxidation of Boc-cystine with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of Na wolframate yielded the sodium salt of Boc-cysteic acid. Boc cystine benzyl ester was used as educt for obtaining S-isoacyl dipeptide building blocks.
