Facile Method To Sequence Cyclic Peptides/Peptoids via One-Pot Ring-Opening/Cleavage Reaction

Authors:

Abstract
A facile method for sequence determination of cyclic peptides/peptoids is described. Macrocyclic peptides/peptoids of 3–10 residues were efficiently synthesized through thioether formation. One-pot reaction of thioether-embedded cyclic peptides/peptoids involving cyanogen bromide-mediated ring-opening and cleavage provides linearized molecules, which can be efficiently sequenced by tandem mass spectrometry.
