PT-GnRH (pentynoyl-KHKVRDEVMVHWFDD-EHWSYGLRPG) was synthesized analogously to PADRE-GnRH except pentynoic acid was coupled to the peptide N-terminus instead of the acetyl group. The crude compound was purified using preparative HPLC (C18 column). Molecular weight = 3203.63, ESI-MS [M + 2H]2+ m/z 1602.3 (calc. 1602.8), [M + 3H]3+ m/z 1068.5 (calc. 1068.8), [M + 4H]4+ m/z 801.5 (calc. 801.9). HPLC C18 column, tR 19.8 min, purity 99%, yield 43% (Supporting Information Figure S2).
