Cyclic Peptide Process Optimization

This project involved a cyclic peptide featuring a highly complex structure with multiple unusual amino acid residues. Due to significant steric hindrance and the challenging amino acid composition, the conventional condensation and cyclization reactions exhibited low efficiency and generated numerous impurities, creating obstacles for process scale-up and purification.

Leveraging its extensive peptide chemistry expertise, ChemExpress conducted in-depth literature research and designed a fragment-based synthesis route tailored for the unique amino acids. Systematic optimization was performed on key reaction parameters—including coupling reagents, solvent systems, reaction concentration, and time—at both the condensation and cyclization stages.

As a result, the optimized process achieved a significant improvement in cyclization conversion and product purity, while effectively minimizing byproduct formation. The refined process provided a robust foundation for subsequent scale-up and formulation development.

FAQs

Our peptide synthesis platform integrates solid-phase and liquid-phase synthesis, with high-throughput and automated production lines for rapid screening and synthesis. We can synthesize peptides ranging from 3 to 80 amino acids and offer synthesis scales from milligrams to kilograms. We also support the development of cyclic peptides (including polycyclic structures), fluorescent labeling, and other functionalized peptides.

Chiral impurities refer to non-target stereoisomers formed during peptide synthesis as a result of racemization or other causes. These impurities can impact the efficacy, safety, and stability of peptide products. Particularly in clinical applications, such impurities may lead to reduced drug activity or potential side effects.

The control of chiral impurities is achieved through the following strategies:

· Starting Material Control: Ensuring high purity of starting materials and setting strict quality standards to prevent introducing impurities from substandard materials.

· Process Control: Screening optimal reaction conditions (such as temperature, solvent, pH) to minimize racemization and reduce unwanted chiral impurities.

· Process Strategy: Implementing specific process strategies, such as using chiral reagents or enzyme-catalyzed reactions, to reduce racemization risks and ensure high chiral purity in the final product.

Structural characterization of peptides is essential to ensure product quality and functionality. We employ a range of analytical techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance (¹H-NMR, ¹³C-NMR), mass spectrometry (MS), tandem MS sequencing (MS/MS), N-terminal sequencing, two-dimensional NMR (2D-NMR), infrared spectroscopy (IR), and ultraviolet spectroscopy (UV). These complementary approaches verify the structure, sequence, and purity of peptides, ensuring accuracy and reliability.
