Thio‐Bromo “Click” Reaction Derived Polymer–Peptide Conjugates for Their Self‐Assembled Fibrillar Nanostructures

Abstract: Back Cover: Thio‐bromo based “click” chemistry is highlighted for the synthesis of polymer‐peptide conjugates of PEG‐based thiolated polymers (PEG‐SH) and an acyl‐brominated Aβ17‐20 peptide (Br‐LVFF), in‐turn selforganizing into fibrillar structured materials. This is reported by Wolfgang H. Binder and co‐workers in article number 2000048.

“…After confirming the complete disulfide reduction, to the same reaction the brominated peptide 5 was added under inert conditions while changing the final reaction solvent to an aqueous binary mixture H 2 O/THF with a ratio 2:1 (v/v), additionally adding triethylamine (Et 3 N) base to enable catalysis of the thio-bromo click reaction. Under these conditions, the reaction completed within 2 h and the final product, the bifunctional peptidic conjugate 6 , was obtained and subsequently purified further in a yield of 62% via preparative GPC (Figure A), a method recently exploited by our group. , Note that in the view of synthetic hurdles due to purification struggles associated with the standard purification methods, which has vexed scientists for decades, the herein exemplified preparative GPC-based method is found to be trivial for complex peptide–polymer conjugates (such as here due to the high susceptibility of the amyloidogenic peptide Aβ 17–20 to supramolecular aggregation in solution), in turn increasing the yield of the conjugate highly effective in terms of production time and cost. Figure C for the analytical GPC chromatograms evidenced the appearance of a monomodal RI trace for the peptide conjugate 6 with R v ∼ 7.65 mL ( M n,GPC = 3800 g mol –1 , Đ = 1.10), which displayed a higher molecular weight compared to that of peptide 5 ( R v ∼ 8.94 mL, M n,GPC = 750 g mol –1 , Đ = 1.06) and the in situ generated free thiolated PEG polymer 7 ( R v ∼ 8.02 mL, M n,GPC = 2400 g mol –1 , Đ = 1.07) but lower compared to that of the intermediate polymer 4 ( R v ∼ 6.86 mL, M n,GPC = 9350 g mol –1 , Đ = 1.62).…”

“…The successive formation of the desired conjugate 6 was further confirmed by HPLC studies (Figure S13, Supporting Information) and via structural analysis by 1 H NMR spectroscopy (Figure C), which exhibited the characteristic major proton signals for the peptidic constituent FFFF (at δ 7.29–7.05 ppm for four phenyl ring protons and at δ 3.16–2.60 ppm of four benzyl group protons, of tetraphenylalanine) and for the PEGylated polymer segment (at δ 3.54 ppm for their repeating unit −OCH 2 CH 2 −) (see also Figure S14, Supporting Information, for the 13 C NMR spectrum). Moreover, ESI-TOF MS investigations were undertaken to fully prove the chemical composition of conjugate 6 (Figure ), where the observed major isotopic peak maximum of 1 + charged series, as a typical example at m / z = 2819.1678 g mol –1 , corresponds to [M + Na + CH 3 OH] + with a degree of polymerization ( n = 29) successfully simulated to match the desired ion …”
