A practical synthesis of the 13C/15N-labelled tripeptide N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe, useful as a reference in solid-state NMR spectroscopy

A mild synthetic method for N-formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-OH (1) is described. After Fmoc solid phase peptide synthesis, on-bead formylation and HPLC purification, more than 30 mg of the fully 13C/15N-labelled tripeptide 1 could be isolated in a typical batch. This peptide can be easily crystallised and is t...
