Abstract
Several side reactions have been detected for cysteine-containing peptides. During the synthesis ofC-terminal cysteine peptides, a base-catalyzed elimination of the sulfhydryl-protected side-chain to afford the dehydroalanine derivative followed by a nucleophilic addition to the alkene was observed. MALDI-TOF analysis was a useful analytical technique to determine this phenomenon.
