The first total synthesis of the cyclic depsipeptide natural product teixobactin is described. Synthesis was achieved by solid-phase peptide synthesis, incorporating the unusual l-allo-enduracididine as a suitably protected synthetic cassette and employing a key on-resin esterification and solution-phase macrolactamization. The synthetic natural product was shown to possess potent antibacterial activity against a range of Gram-positive pathogenic bacteria, including a virulent strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).

New guanidinylation reagents are reported. These reagents consist of N,N',N''-tri-Boc-guanidine (1) and N,N',N''-tri-Cbz-guanidine (2), which allow for the facile conversion of alcohols to substituted guanidines. A series of arginine analogues were synthesized via condensation of a primary or secondary alcohol with the guanidinylation reagents 1 or 2, under Mitsunobu conditions, to produce protected alkylated guanidines. In addition, an extended study of the previously reported reagents N,N'-di-Boc-N''- triflylguanidine (3) and N,N'-di-Cbz-N''-triflylguanidine (4) is presented. The triflyldiurethane-protected guanidine 3 was utilized to guanidinylate primary and secondary amines under mild conditions with high yield in both solution and on solid phase.
