Abstract: | A method is described for the solid-phase cyclization of analogues of arginine vasopressin (AVP) in which one of the sulfur atoms of the disulfide bridge is formally replaced by a methylene group and in which the terminal amino group is formally replaced by a hydrogen atom. The linear precursors of these vasopressin analogues were assembled by a standard Merrifield solid-phase procedure and were cyclized by intramolecular peptide bond formation while the peptide was still attached to the resin support; then the final products were simultaneously deprotected and released from the polymeric support by treatment with liquid hydrogen fluoride. The products of this synthetic procedure were isolated by chromatography and exhibited high biological activities. This method for cyclization of resin-bound peptide is being applied in the synthesis of many other cyclopeptides for conformation and biological studies. |
