A series of analogues of the integrin binding aspartic acid-glycine-arginine (RGD) peptide sequence were synthesised conjugated to nitric oxide (NO) donating functional groups. Also the cytotoxicity of abiraterone, a prostate cancer drug, was explored when it was conjugated in three part constructs to RGD sequences and NO releasing heterocycles. In general the analogues showed integrin binding affinity comparable to RGD reference compounds, and all released NO by the Griess test assay. Two analogues exhibited significant cytotoxic effects against PC3 and MCF7 cell lines.
Preparation of protected amino acids

The present invention involves a process for preparing protected amino acids. The process produces a di-tert-butyl amino ester or an N-protected di-tert-butyl amino ester by transesterification of an acidic amino acid or an N-protected acidic amino acid. By-products of the transesterification reaction may be recycled for use as part of the starting material. The N-protected di-tert-butyl amino ester may be hydrogenated to form a di-tert-butyl amino ester, which may subsequently form a di-tert-butyl ester hydrocholride salt.
