'O-Acyl isopeptide method' is an efficient synthetic method for peptides. We designed 'O-acyl isodipeptide units', Boc-Ser/Thr(Fmoc-Xaa)-OH, as important building blocks to enable routine use of the O-acyl isopeptide method. In the synthesis of an Abeta1-42 isopeptide using O-acyl isodipeptide unit Boc-Ser(Fmoc-Gly)-OH, a side reaction, resulting in the deletion of Ser(26) in the O-acyl isopeptide structure, was noticed during coupling of the unit. We observed that the side reaction occurred during the activation step and was solvent-dependent. In DMF or NMP, an intramolecular side reaction, originating from the activated species of the unit, occurred during the activation step. In non-polar solvents such as CHCl(3) or CH(2)Cl(2), the side reaction was less likely to occur. Using CH(2)Cl(2) as solvent in coupling the unit, the target Abeta1-42 isopeptide was synthesized with almost no major side reaction.
