Abstract :
The application of microwave assisted modification of the Akabori hydrazinolysis reaction has been found to cleave cyclic oligopeptides in a selective fashion to produce mainly the hydrazide of a specific linear peptide. This ring cleavage requires a few minutes of reaction in a domestic microwave oven. The linear peptide hydrazide can be analyzed by ESI-MS/MS, FAB-MS, and FAB-MS/MS methods for the determination of the amino acid sequence.
