Amino acid-monochlorocuprate complex

Suwannachot and Rode (1998) reported an unexpected reaction between peptides and amino acids when using SIPS dialanine formation increased by a factor of 50 in the presence of glycine. The yield depended greatly on the glycine concentration, the optimum value being one eighth of the alanine concentration. Experimental results, as well as calculations, indicate that peptide formation is favoured by an amino acid-monochlorocuprate complex (Fig. 5.6).
