alpha-Chymotrypsin catalyzed peptide bond formation was studied in ionic liquids using the synthesis of a protected fragment of Leu-enkephalin, ZTyrGlyGlyOEt, as model reaction. MOEMIM center dot PF6 was found to be the most favorable solvent among the six different 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphates and tetrafluoroborates ionic liquids screened. With MOEMIM-PF6 as reaction media, several di- or tripeptide derivatives were successfully prepared in 68-75% isolated yields. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
