General description

Trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate (TMS-ITC) reacts with fullerene-mixed peroxide C60(O)(OOtBu)4 to yield isothiocyanate derivative C60(NCS)(OH)(OOtBu)4. TMS-ITC undergoes condensation with ethyl 2-benzylamino-5-methyl-3-phenylcyclopent-1-enecarboxylate to yield 1-benzyl-5-methyl-7-phenyl-2-thioxo-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydrocyclopentapyrimidin-4-one. It participates in ring opening reaction of N-substituted aziridines and cyclohexene oxide.

Application

Trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate was used as derivatizing reagent during the synthesis of amino acid thiohydantoins.

A reinvestigation of the isothiocyanate-based chemistry for cyclic degradations of peptides and proteins revealed that the reagent trimethylsilylisothiocyanate (TMS-ITC) gives superior results in terms of coupling efficiency and lack of complicating side reactions.

Proteins and peptides can be sequenced from the carboxy terminus with isothiocyanate reagents to produce amino acid thiohydantoin derivatives. Previous studies in our laboratory indicated that the use of trimethylsilyl isothiocyanate (TMS-ITC) as a coupling reagent significantly improved the yields
