The synthesis of the tetrapeptide, N-t-butoxycarbonyl-ε-N-carbobenzoxy-L-lysylglycyl-ε-N-carbobenzoxy-L-lysylglycine 4-(methylthio)phenyl ester is described. The utility of this protective ester is shown by its easy conversion to the protected tetrapeptide 4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl activated ester without decomposition. Removal of the N-butoxycarbonyl protecting group afforded the polymerizing unit, ε-N-carbobenzoxy-L-lysylglycyl-ε-N-carbobenzoxy-L-lysylglycine 4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl ester. Polymerization of this material on the partially blocked monomer glycine-1-C14 ethyl ester hydrochloride, at a relatively high dilution, gave poly-(ε-N-carbobenzoxyl-L-lysylglycyl)glycine-1-C14 ethyl ester. The carbobenzoxy protective groups were removed to give the title compound.

A new sulphur-containing α-amino acid, S-methyl-β,β-dimethylcysteine has been prepared from S-benzyl-β,β-dimethylcysteine. These two compounds and the intermediate β,β-dimethylcysteine may be of physiological importance.S-Benzyl-β,β-dimethylcysteine has been prepared by the addition of benzyl mercaptan to α-benzoylamino-β,β-dimethylacrylic acid, its azlactone, and methyl ester, followed by hydrolysis.In addition to the above three new sulphur-containing α-amino acids, the following compounds are described, as far as the authors are aware, for the first time: methyl α-benzoylamino-β,β-dimethylacrylate, S-benzyl-N-benzoyl-β,β-dimethylcysteine and its methyl ester, the hydantoin of S-benzyl-β,β-dimethylcysteine, and S-benzyl-β,β-dimethylcysteine ethyl ester hydrochloride, and helianthate.

Addition of 4-methoxybenzyl alcohol to 3β-hydroxy-5α-androst-15-en-17-one gave the mixture of isomeric 15-(4-methoxyphenyl)methoxy derivatives from which, after acetylation and chromatography, the major 15β isomer was separated. Borohydride reduction gave 17β-hydroxy derivative which was protected as methoxymethyl ether. Oxidative cleavage of protecting group at position 15 and the subsequent Jones oxidation afforded corresponding 15-ketone. Its oximation with O-(carboxymethyl)hydroxylamine, deacetylation and methylation with diazomethane gave protected O-(carboxymethyl)oxime derivative with free hydroxy group at position 3. Its oxidation afforded dihydrotestosterone derivative and successive deprotection of position 17 and of carboxy group led to final (15E)-17β-hydroxy-5α-androstane-3,15-dione 15-[O-(carboxymethyl)]oxime. The title compound was designed as dihydrotestosterone hapten for heterologous radioimmunoassays.

A series of fluorescent molecularly imprinted nanogels to detect irinotecan (CPT11) were prepared and characterized. A set of amino acids and napthalimide polymerisable derivatives allowed to obtain polymers as soluble fluorescent nanoparticles by high dilution imprinted synthesis. The direct detection of irinotecan in human plasma was obtained by fluorescence quenching of the naphtalimide-based imprinted materials. The plasma sample treated with acetonitrile allowed the detection of irinotecan in the 10nM – 30μM range. The LOD was 9.4 nM, with within-run variability 10% and day to day variability 13%.<br>
