Reaction of ADP with amino acid methyl esters mediated by trimethylsilyl chloride in pyridine produced adenosine 5'-phosphoramidates in good yields under mild conditions, it is interesting that nucleophilic attack of amino acid methyl esters only occurred on alpha-phosphorus of ADP.

We have studied the possibility of shifting a thermodynamically unfavourable enzymatic equilibrium towards product formation via the addition of a highly specific adsorbent. The commercially interesting enzymatic condensation of Z-L-aspartic acid with L-phenylalanine methyl ester to the sweetener aspartame was
