The selective deprotection of Nω-nitro-arginine derivatives represents a major preparative challenge. This problem can be circumvented by the use of catalytic hydrogenation, but often high pressure, elevated temperature, and/or long reaction times are needed. In certain cases hydrogenation is not suitable, for example, small-scale reactions, parallel synthesis, or due to selectivity issues. Herein, we demonstrate for the first time, the use of NaBH4 in the presence of a metal ion catalyst for the removal of the Nω-nitro moiety under simple, 'open-vessel' conditions. This process using NaBH4 does not remove the benzyloxycarbonyl-protecting group; thus the method is orthogonal for this protecting scheme.

Guanylation proceeded efficiently upon treatment of the various amines with cyanamide in the presence of catalytic amounts of scandium(III) triflate under mild conditions. The method did not require the guanylation reagents to be preactivated, and the reaction proceeded efficiently in water. The method, therefore, has practical utility for substrates that dissolve only in aqueous solutions, for example, peptides or pharmacologically important compounds.

The total large-scale synthesis of argiopine
Formanovsky,Popova,Mikhura
experimental part, p. 752 - 758 (2010/07/15)
The total large-scale synthesis of a natural toxin argiopine, a polymethylenepolyamine derivative, was developed. It consisted of 26 stages and included three key block schemes. Most of the stages proceeded quantitatively, which excluded the necessity of using the chromatographic separation of intermediates.
