A series of solid-phase syntheses of the protected precursor II of DDAVP was carried out. Experimental conditions were developed under which practically pure II can reproducibly be obtained in yields better than 60%. The protected precursors of DDAVP obtained by liquid- and solid-phase synthesis and DDAVP samples obtained from these precursors were undistinguishable by conventional analytical or pharmacological assays.

Using the method of solid-phase synthesis, S-benzyl-β-mercaptopropionyl-O-methyltyrosyl-phenylalanyl-glutaminyl-asparaginyl-S-benzylcysteinyl-prolyl-NG-p-toluenesulfonyl-D-arginyl-glycine amide (I) was prepared which after removal of the protecting groups, oxidation, and purification afforded [1-β-mercaptopropionic acid, 2-O-methyltyrosine, 8-D-arginine]vasopressin (II). II shows a low antidiuretic effect, c. 10 I.U./mg. It is without effect on rat uterus in vitro and on the blood pressure of rat in vitro.

Two lysine-vasopressin analogs, [1-β-mercaptopropionic acid, 8-α,β-diaminopropionic acid]vasopressin (IVa) and [1-β-mercaptopropionic acid, 8-D-α,β-diaminopropionic acid]vasopressin (IVb) were prepared by solid phase synthesis. IVa and IVb show a considerable antidiuretic effect (1 079 and 1 000 I.U./mg, resp.) and a low pressor effect (14.0 and 22.8 I.U./mg, resp.). The uterotonic effect of IVa is 0.9 I.U./mg and of IVb 1.72 I.U./mg.

Usefulness of a dimethoxybenzhydrylamine derivative, 3-(3-(Fmoc-amino-4-methoxyphenylmethyl)-4-methoxyphenyl)propionic acid, for Fmoc-based solid phase synthesis of peptide amides was demonstrated by preparation of three biologically active peptide amides, i.e. tetragastrin, neuromedin B and [8-arginine]vasopressin. 1M trimethylsilyl bromide-thioanisole (molar ratio 1 : 1) in trifluoroacetic acid was recommended as a deprotecting reagent for releasing the peptide amides from the resin.

The solid phase synthesis of seven 2-O-methyl- and 2-O-ethyl-tyrosine substituted analogs of [8-arginine]vasopressin (AVP) with enhanced antidiuretic agonistic specificity is reported. These peptides are: [2-O-ethyltyrosine, 8-arginine]vasopressin (I), [2-O-methyltyrosine, 8-D-arginine]vasopressin (II), [2-O-ethyltyrosine, 8-D-arginine]vasopressin (III), [2-O-methyltyrosine, 4-valine, 8-arginine]vasopressin (IV), [2-O-ethyltyrosine, 4-valine, 8-arginine]vasopressin (V), [2-O-methyltyrosine, 4-valine, 8-D-arginine]vasopressin (VI), [2-O-ethyltyrosine, 4-valine, 8-D-arginine]vasopressin (VII). All analogs were tested for antidiuretic, antivasopressor and antioxytocic activities. Although all these new analogs are antidiuretic agonists they are antagonists of vasopressor responses to AVP, and of responses by the rat uterus to oxytocin. Thus, all seven new Tyr(Me) and Tyr(Et) containing analogs exhibit high antidiuretic specificity and have infinite antidiuretic/pressor (A/P) and antidiuretic/oxytocic (A/O) activity ratios. Some of these analogs e.g. Tyr(Me)DAVP, Tyr(Me)VAVP and Tyr(Me)VDAVP, which possess high antidiuretic activity with no pressor or oxytocic agonism, could be useful new pharmacological tools for characterizing receptors mediating specific responses to the neurohypophyseal hormones. They could also be potentially useful in the treatment of diabetes insipidus.
