ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
A new Peptide-former
N-ETHYL-5-PHENYLISOXAZOLIUM3'-SULF0NATE (Woodward's Reagent K) Woodward's Reagent K, manufactured by PILOT, functions as a peptide bond former by combining with the acid group of one amino acid or peptide to form an active ester. This ester bond is then broken by the amino group of a second amino acid or peptide ester with concurrent formation of a peptide and a water-soluble by-product. The new procedure is simple and fast, gives excep tionally high yields of very pure peptides free from by-products and without appreciable racemization. Also available from PILOT are synthetic polypep tides. For more information, write to 591-A.
