Abstract

The unique combination of microwave heating with optimized carbodiimide activation has proven to be an indispensable technique for high-throughput peptide production. Here, we describe new methods in microwave-assisted solid phase peptide synthesis and optimized post-synthesis modifications that have been recently developed. These methods have drastically reduced synthesis time and solvent requirement while delivering peptides in high crude purities.
