Abstract
Amide couplings are one of, if not the most common chemical reactions performed in the pharmaceutical industry. Many amide bonds are generated with the help of highly active peptide coupling reagents. These reagents have garnered wide use in the pharmaceutical industry, but many contain high-energy functional groups. As a result, significant time is spent assessing the thermal stability of these reagents before scale-up commences. This paper assesses the thermal stability of 45 common peptide coupling reagents by differential scanning calorimetry and accelerating rate calorimetry. Those compounds which flagged as potentially impact-sensitive or potentially explosive were tested by drop hammer and explosivity screening techniques. The data are presented in an effort to drive the development of these reactions toward the use of one of the more thermally stable reagents.
期刊介绍:
The journal Organic Process Research & Development serves as a communication tool between industrial chemists and chemists working in universities and research institutes. As such, it reports original work from the broad field of industrial process chemistry but also presents academic results that are relevant, or potentially relevant, to industrial applications. Process chemistry is the science that enables the safe, environmentally benign and ultimately economical manufacturing of organic compounds that are required in larger amounts to help address the needs of society. Consequently, the Journal encompasses every aspect of organic chemistry, including all aspects of catalysis, synthetic methodology development and synthetic strategy exploration, but also includes aspects from analytical and solid-state chemistry and chemical engineering, such as work-up tools,process safety, or flow-chemistry. The goal of development and optimization of chemical reactions and processes is their transfer to a larger scale; original work describing such studies and the actual implementation on scale is highly relevant to the journal. However, studies on new developments from either industry, research institutes or academia that have not yet been demonstrated on scale, but where an industrial utility can be expected and where the study has addressed important prerequisites for a scale-up and has given confidence into the reliability and practicality of the chemistry, also serve the mission of OPR&D as a communication tool between the different contributors to the field.
