General description

Isobutyl chloroformate is used as a peptide reagent. In oligonucleotide synthesis, IBCF blocks the 5′-hydroxyl function of deoxyribosides. It also serves as condensing reagent.

Application

  • Preparation of a volatile derivative of taurine and application to gas chromatographic determination of urinary taurine.: Demonstrates the utility of isobutyl chloroformate in preparing volatile derivatives of taurine for gas chromatographic analysis, offering a methodological advancement in clinical biochemistry (Masuoka et al., 1989).
  • Quinazoline antifolates inhibiting thymidylate synthase: synthesis of four oligo(L-gamma-glutamyl) conjugates of N10-propargyl-5,8-dideazafolic acid and their enzyme inhibition.: This article investigates the synthesis and biological activity of quinazoline antifolates, using techniques including isobutyl chloroformate, relevant in medicinal chemistry and drug development (Pawelczak et al., 1989).
  • Coupling of peptides to protein carriers by mixed anhydride procedure.: Discusses a novel technique using isobutyl chloroformate for peptide coupling to proteins, useful in bioconjugate chemistry and vaccine development (Samokhin & Filimonov, 1985).
  • Folate analogues altered in the C9-N10 bridge region. 18. Synthesis and antitumor evaluation of 11-oxahomoaminopterin and related compounds.: Investigates the role of isobutyl chloroformate in synthesizing folate analogues for cancer research, showing its importance in therapeutic chemistry (Nair et al., 1981).
