  • Patent number: 11807664
    Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide methods of producing a cyclic organic compound using a continuous stirred tank reactor(s) (CSTR), the methods being capable of achieving excellent impurity-suppressing effects (quality improvement), reduction in reaction-tank size, continuous production, and such. The present inventors conducted studies on cyclization reactions using a CSTR(s), which had not been conventionally used for cyclization reactions for cyclic compounds. As a result, the inventors have found that the present methods can achieve excellent impurity-suppressing effects (quality improvement), reduction in reaction-tank size, continuous production, and such, as compared with conventional cyclization methods.

  • Publication number: 20230056969
    Abstract: The present inventors found that, in the synthesis of a peptide compound involving condensation of a C-terminal-activated substance of an acid component with an amine component, the C-terminal-activated substance can be removed by mixing a solution containing a residual C-terminal-activated substance after a condensation reaction with a tertiary amine and water or an aqueous solution.

  • Publication number: 20220411462
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for producing peptide compounds. The inventors have found that a cyclic peptide compound can be produced efficiently by linking the N-terminal amino acid residue and the C-terminal amino acid residue of a peptide compound in a solvent containing one or more selected from the group consisting of water-immiscible solvents, water-soluble alkyl nitriles, and water-soluble ethers.
