[2-Chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide. A suitable reagent for peptide synthesis]. / 2-Chlor-1-methylpyridiniumjodid. Ein geeignetes Kupplungsreagenz für Peptidsynthesen.

2-Chloro-1-methylpyridinium iodide is a coupling reagent for peptide synthesis. By its use different peptides were synthesized with protected di- and trifunctional amino acids. While urethan-protected amino acids react free of racemization, the fragment condensation needs N-Hydroxysuccinimide, as shown by the Young test.
