For the first time, immobilized bromelain was shown to maintain high catalytic activity in organic solvent and to form peptide bonds. It requires only 7 hours to obtain Cbz‐Gly‐ l ‐Leu‐OMe in 85% yield. The precursor of aspartame (Cbz‐ l ‐Asp‐ l ‐Phe‐OMe) and other dipeptides were also synthesized by this method.
