Deskripsi

Aspartimide formation is a frequently occurring problem during peptide synthesis. Here, the authors present cyanosulfurylides as a protection group that masks aspartic acid residues during solid phase peptide synthesis, thus preventing aspartimide formation, and can be removed with N-chlorosuccinimide.
