Partially modified retro‐inverso peptides

Several synthetic routes are reported to prepare the hetero diprotected 1,1‐diaminoalkanes from N ‐acylated amino acids or peptides for incorporation into partially modified retro‐inverso peptides. The Curtius rearrangement was carried out on the N ‐protected aminoacyl azides obtained from the N ‐pr...

Description
Summary:Several synthetic routes are reported to prepare the hetero diprotected 1,1‐diaminoalkanes from N ‐acylated amino acids or peptides for incorporation into partially modified retro‐inverso peptides. The Curtius rearrangement was carried out on the N ‐protected aminoacyl azides obtained from the N ‐protected aminoacyl hydrazide by nitrosyl chloride or by sodium azide reaction with an appropriate mixed carboxylic carbonic acid anhydride. The resulting isocyanate was allowed to react with alcohol to give a urethane‐type protecting group or, via a “one‐pot” approach, directly with a carboxyl carrying component to yield the modified (reversed) peptide bond. The carboxyl component can be either an N ‐acylated amino acid or a malonic acid. The more standard route involves selective deprotection of the 1,1‐diaminoalkane residue followed immediately by coupling with a carboxyl component to yield the same modified peptide derivative.
