We describe a method to protect the sensitive stereochemistry of the thioamide—in analogy to the protection of the functional groups of amino acid side chains—in order to preserve the thioamide moiety during peptide elongation.<br>

A soluble polynorbornene support containing an oligoether linker as well as alkyl and oligoether side chains has been developed and used to synthesize Leu5-Enkephalin in 52% overall yield using only 1.2 equivalents of coupling reagents.

Reaction of N-benzyloxycarbonyl derivatives of aliphatic amino acids, and threonine, aspartic, and glutamic acids whose side-chains were protected with the t-butyl group, gave the corresponding N-methylamino acid derivatives in good yields. The methionine derivative could be obtained by using only one mol of methyl iodide. Derivatives of threonine, and aspartic and glutamic acids whose side-chains were not protected could not be methylated. Analysis of the crude products of methylation in three cases showed that they contained 0–1% of racemized material.

Cyclic disulfides of cysteinyl-tetraglycyl-cysteine (Ia), cysteinyl-tyrosyl-triglycyl-cysteine (Ib) and cysteinyl-tyrosyl-isoleucyl-diglycyl-cysteine (Ic) were synthesized by classical methods of peptide synthesis. The actions of solvent and of side chains in the positions 2 and 3 on the conformational arrangement of the peptide backbone and the disulfide group were investigated by means of CD spectroscopy. Some mechanisms which co-operate in stabilizing the oxytocin conformation were identified. Hence, it may be deduced, that the amino acid sequence in the positions 1-3 determines the spatial arrangement characteristic for oxytocin, at least in a protonating medium.
