The enzymatic synthesis of CCK-8 tripeptide derivative Phac-Met-Asp(OMe)-Phe-NH2 is reported. Starting with Phac-Met-OCam, we have successfully synthesized the target tripeptide with three free or immobilized enzymes, α-chymotrypsin, papain and thermolysin in reasonable yields. The key steps in this synthesis were the coupling of Phac-Met-OCam and H-Asp(OMe)2 to form Met-Asp peptide bond catalyzed by α-chymotrypsin and the selective hydrolysis of α-ester of Phac-Met-Asp(OMe)2 catalyzed by papain.
