Protection and subsequent deprotection of amino acid functional groups play a key role in regioselective peptide synthesis. For protection, carboxylic acid functional groups are often benzylated using p-toluenesulfonic acid catalysed Fischer-Speier esterification reaction. Such reaction involves in situ water formation, which requires subsequent separation by azeotropic distillation for forward shift of equilibrium. To eliminate the need of this corresponding step requiring additional set-up, current study investigated p-toluenesulfonyl chloride as a reasonable alternative catalyst for facile benzylation of selected mono- and di- carboxylic amino acids. Literature reports that p-toluenesulfonyl chloride not only has a better shelf life but also demonstrates better safety in case of accidental systemic absorption over p-toluenesulfonic acid. As the O-benzyl-l-amino acids are often retained without deprotection to constitute the pharmaceutical peptide systems, synthesized compounds were investigated for their biocompatibility using in vitro cytotoxicity assays.

Paragraph 0134; 0135, (2015/12/31)
A conjugate of water soluble polymer-amino acid oligopeptide-drug of Formula (I) below and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the conjugate are provided. In the conjugate, P is a water soluble polymer; X is a linking group, wherein the linking group links P and A1; each of A1, A2 and A3 is independently same or different amino acid residue or amino acid analogue residue; each of D1 and D2 is independently same or different drug molecule residue; a is 0 or 1; b is an integer of 2-12; c is an integer of 0-7; d is 0 or 1. The conjugate could improve drug load capacity, water solubility, stability and activity of the drug.

We report the synthesis of a novel class of dendritic prodrugs via Passerini reaction in one pot. Such dendrimers feature a simultaneous attachment of a conventional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) (such as ibuprofen and aspirin) and a nitric oxide (NO)-releasing moiety (such as an organic nitrate) onto their surface, and are therefore regarded as new drug delivery systems for NO-releasing NSAIDs (NO-NSAIDs).
