Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of the 17-allyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-{2-[4-(7-carboxy-heptanoyl-oxy)-3-methoxy-cyclohexyl]-1-methyl-vinyl}-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-aza-tricyclo[22.3.1.04,9] octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone prepared in Reference Production Example 2 (38.4 mg, 0.04 mmol), TOYO-Pearl resin (TSKgel AF-amino, 100 μl, free amino group (available amino group) 0.01 mmol), EDC/HCl (9.2 mg, 0.048 mol), 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt; 6.5 mg, 0.048 mmol) and DMF (1 ml) was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. The reaction end point was confirmed as the time when no residual amino group became visually observable by the ninhydrin reaction. The reaction rate at this time was calculated to be about 82%. After confirmation of completion of the reaction, the resin was washed with DMF five times. Acetic anhydride (100 μl) and DMF (400 μl) were added thereto, and this was followed by stirring at room temperature for 1 hour. Subsequently, the resin was thoroughly washed with DMF, and the TOYO-Pearl resin with FK506 obtained was used as the control affinity resin in the binding experiments described below.
