A new reagent, 3-azaspiro[5,5]undecan-2,4-dioxo-3-yl diphenyl phosphate (ASUD-diphenyl phosphate) is described for the synthesis of N-protected amino acid-ASUD esters which are active esters useful in the synthesis of peptides. This compound was synthesized by reacting N-hydroxy-3-azaspiro[5,5]undecane-2,4-dione (HO-ASUD) with diphenyl chlorophosphate in the presence of a base at room temperature and was obtained in high yields. The ASUD-diphenyl phosphate reagent reacts with N-protected amino acids under mild conditions to give the corresponding ASUD active esters, while preserving the enantiomeric purity of the amino acid. The new reagent is a stable crystalline compound and eliminates the need for DCC, a potent skin allergen, used previously for the synthesis of N-protected amino acid-ASUD ester.

Open chain Cbz-L-aa1-L-Pro-Bt (Bt=benzotriazole) sequences were converted into either the corresponding trans- or cis-fused 2,5- diketopiperazines (DKPs) depending on the reaction conditions. Thermodynamic tandem cyclization/epimerization afforded selectively the corresponding trans-DKPs (69-75%). Complementarily, tandem deprotection/cyclization led to the cis-DKPs (65-72%). A representative set of proline-containing cis- and trans-DKPs has been prepared. A mechanistic investigation, based on chiral HPLC, kinetics, and computational studies enabled a rationalization of the results. Stereoflexible route to DKPs: A convenient, versatile, and flexible benzotriazole-mediated methodology for the synthesis of proline-containing hetero-2,5-diketopiperazines (DKPs) is reported. Depending on the reaction conditions, either cis- or trans-configured DKPs were obtained starting from the same inexpensive l,l-dipeptidoyl benzotriazole key intermediate (see scheme). Kinetics, chiral HPLC, and computational studies forged a background for mechanistic rationalization. Copyright

(Chemical Equation Presented) Hindered amino acids have been introduced into peptide chains by coupling N-(Cbz- and Fmoc-α-aminoacyl) benzotriazoles with amino acids, wherein at least one of the components was sterically hindered, to provide compounds 3a-e, (3c +3 c′), 5a-d, (5a + 5a′), 6a-c, (6b + 6b′), 8a-c, 9a-e, 10a-d, and (10a + 10a′) in isolated yields of 41-95% with complete retention of chirality as evidenced by NMR and HPLC analysis. The benzotriazole activation methodology is a new route for the synthesis of sterically hindered peptides.

Phenylhydrazide as an enzyme-labile protecting group in peptide synthesis

The enzymatic cleavage of amino acid phenylhydrazides with the enzyme tyrosinase (EC 1.14.18.1) offers a new, mild, and selective method for C-terminal deprotection of peptides. The advantages of the described methodology are the very mild oxidative removal of the protecting group at room temperature and pH 7, a high chemo- and regioselectivity, and the availability of the biocatalyst. Even in oxygen-saturated solution, the oxidation of sensitive methionine residues was not observed. These features make the methodology suitable for the synthesis of sensitive peptide conjugates. Mechanistic data suggest that the hydrolysis of the oxidized adducts proceeds by a free-radical mechanism.
