Synthesis of sterically-hindered peptidomimetics using 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine-2-yl)-4-methyl-morpholinium chloride

Our study demonstrated that 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazine-2-yl)-4-methyl-morpholinium chloride (DMTMM) is a versatile coupling reagent for the synthesis of sterically-hindered peptidomimetics. It is superior to HBTU/HOBt and CDMT in controlling racemization and N-arylation, respectively.
