Treatment of commercially available alkyl and cycloalkyl thioureas with methyl iodide provides the corresponding S-alkylisothiouronium iodide which reacts directly with ornithine to yield the title compounds.

A general procedure for the synthesis of NG-alkyl, and NG-aryl-L-arginines with relatively high overall yield is reported. The key step involved the coupling of protected L-ornithine 4 with isothiourea 7 to give the fully protected NG-aryl-L-arginine derivative 8. Subsequent deprotection of 8 in acidic condition provided the final target compound 9 with an overall yield of more than 80%.
