Abstract

The use of bromide ion as a redox mediator promotes electrochemical reactions in the non-conductive cyclohexane phase. Anodically oxidized species of bromide ion in the conductive methanol phase can bring oxidizing power across phases to induce oxidative disulfide bond formation of a hydrophobically-tagged tripeptide, which is located predominantly in the cyclohexane phase. In addition to commonly used tetraalkylammonium salts, inorganic sodium salt can also be effective alternatives for the bromide source.
