    Description / Table of Contents: Summary We developed two methods, based up on liquid chromatography, for the analysis of the peptide sweetener aspartame (l-aspartyl-l-phenylalanine methylester). Ion-exchange chromatography by means of a Beckman PA-35 resin and post-column ninhydrin detection in an amino acid analyzer enabled us to resolve the dipeptide ester from one of its main decomposition products,l-aspartyl-l-phenylalanine, as well as from several possibly interfering amino acids. High performance liquid chromatography on a reversed-phase octadecylsilane column with gradient elution, was capable of resolving aspartame, the free dipeptide and in addition the diketopiperazine, which may result from cyclization of aspartame. Both techniques were succesfully applied to measure this peptide sweetener in beverages based on whey, fruit juice, cola, tea or coffee. We have been able to obtain in addition a picture of the decomposition products of aspartame under particular pH and temperature conditions. In acidic solution and at room temperature, we observed the slow formation of both free dipeptide and diketopiperazine in an almost equimolar ratio. In contrast, exposure of aspartame in acidic enviroment at a high temperature led mainly to the diketopiperazine, together with a low extent of peptide-bond hydrolysis.
    Notes: Zusammenfasssung Für die Analyse des Peptidsüß stoffes Aspartam (l-Aspartyl-l-phenylalanin methyl-ester) in Lebensmitteln entwickelten wir 2 Methoden, beide basierend auf der Flüssigchromatographie. Mit Hilfe des Beckman PA-35 Ionenaustauscherharzes und eines Aminosäureanalysators waren wir in der Lage, den Dipeptidester von einem seiner Zersetzungsprodukte,l-Aspartyl-l-phenylalanin, sowie von möglicherweise in der Analyse interferierenden Aminosäuren zu trennen. Durch Hochdruckflüssigchromatographie mittels einer Octadecylsilan-Phasenumkehr Kolonne gelang zudem auch die Trennung und der Nachweis des aus Aspartam durch Cyclisierung entstehenden Diketopiperazins. Beide Techniken gestatteten es, Aspartam auf direkte Weise in verschiedenen flüssigen Lebensmitteln (Getränken auf Molken-, Frucht-, Kolabasis, Tee oder Kaffee) zu messen. Es war überdies möglich, sich ein Bild vom Zerfallsspektrum des Dipeptidesters in Lösung unter bestimmten Temperatur- und pH-Bedingungen zu machen. Dabei fanden wir bei saurem pH und Raumtemperatur ein nahezu äquimolares Verhältnis der beiden Zersetzungsprodukte freies Dipeptid und Diketopiparazin. Demgegenüber führte Exposition von gelöstem Aspartam bei saurem pH und hoher Temperatur vornehmlich zur Bildung des Diketopiperazins und außerdem zu einer geringfügigen Hydrolyse der Peptidbindung.

    Notes: Water-insoluble oligomers were synthesized from L-methionine ethyl ester with papain as the catalyst. L-Oligomethionine was obtained in yields of 50% when synthesis was carried out in highly concentrated citrate buffer at pH 5.5. Yields of up to 85% were obtained when the enzymatic synthesis proceeded in distilled water at pH 6.5, the pH being strictly maintained. The insoluble polymer was converted to highly water-soluble sulfoxide and sulfone derivatives, which consist mainly of an octamer with low amounts of heptamer or hexamer. Most of the carboxyl terminals still contained the ethyl ester group, only a minor part being present in the free acid form. The potential of the enzymatic approach for the synthesis of optically pure and monodisperse oligomers of α-amino acids is discussed.
