Aspartame precursor synthesis in water miscible cosolvent catalysed by thermolysin

The synthesis of the dipeptide N-benzyloxycarbonyl-L- aspartyl-phenylalanine methyl ester, aspartame precursor, catalysed by thermolysin in aqueous and aqueous methanolic solutions was studied. Thermolysin with concentration as low as 10 μM in 25% methanol can catalyse the synthetic reaction. The op...
