Abstract

The trityl (Trt) group is ideally suited for the side-chain protection of His in peptide syntheses, in combination with 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc) in N α- and protecting groups cleavable by mild acidolysis in other positions of the peptide. 2,4,5-trichlorophenyl (Tcp)- and pentafluorophenyl (Pfp)-esters of Fmoc-His(Trt)-OH and Trt-His(Trt)-OH are strongly activated, but stable compounds. N α-Trt is selectively removable in the presence of N Im-Trt.
