Example 5
Biotin-A20FMD V-Cys-2 (43)
A solution of the peptide 42 (12.06 mg, 4.8 μmol, 1.0 eq) in 1/1 acetonitrile/water (1 mL) was added to a solution of 24 (12.06 mg, 4.8 μmol, 1.0 eq) in 1/1 acetonitrile/water (1 mL). The solution was stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. The acetonitrile/water was removed by lyophilisation to give a yellow foam. Purification by preparative HPLC followed by lyophilisation gave the product as a white foam (7.4 mg, 38%)
Preparative HPLC Method:
Reverse-phase ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) was carried out on Phenomenex Gemini NX 5μ C-18 columns of the following dimensions: 150×4.6 mm for analysis, and 150×21.20 mm for preparative work. All UPLC experiments were performed with gradient conditions: initial fixed composition 13% B to 75% B over 15 min, held for 2.0 min at 75% B, then 75% B to 13% B within 0.10 min held at 13% for 2.90 min. Total duration of gradient run was 20.00 min. Eluents used were solvent A (H2O with 0.1% Formic acid) and solvent B (CH3CN with 0.1% Formic acid). Flow rates used were 1.0 ml/min for analytical, and 20.0 ml/min for preparative HPLC. Detection was at 254 and 280 nm.
Analytical Data: LCMS 1.17 min (ES+) m/z (relative intensity) 1330([M+2]+/3, 5%); 998([M+3]+/4, 70); 798([M+4]+/5, 100); 665([M+5]+/6, 20).
