A solid-phase-Fmoc-based-synthesis strategy is described for oligourea peptidomimetics as well as a convenient general synthesis approach for the preparation of the required building blocks 5a-j and 5k. These are suitable for use in peptide or robot synthesizers, which is illustrated by the synthesis of oligourea peptidomimetics of part of Leu-enkephalin (10) and a neurotensin derivative (17).
A procedure for the solid‐phase synthesis of oligourea peptidomimetics starting from Boc‐protected monomers is described. The compounds are prepared on Tentagel® resin and can be obtained selectively either as the C‐terminal free acids with UV irradiation when a photocleavable linker is used or as C‐terminal hydantoins with 10% TEA/MeOH and a catalytic amount of KCN.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
