A general method for the synthesis of dipeptides has been developed, which does not require any coupling reagents. This method is based on the reaction of readily available HCl salts of amino acid methyl esters with tetrabutylphosphonium amino acid ionic liquids. The isolation procedure of stepwise treatment with AcOH is easy to carry out. The method was extended to the synthesis of tripeptide, tyrosyl-glycyl-glycine, present in IMREG-1, also.

Page/Page column 8-9, (2010/02/09)
The invention relates to compounds and methods for inhibiting human platelet aggregation, thrombosis and cell activation mediated by PAR1 and PAR4 using peptide analogs of Arg-Pro-Pro-Gly-Phe that contain one or more amino acid substitutions. The invention also includes screening methods for identifying compounds that inhibit thrombin mediated activities.

Amino acid and dipeptide esters of metronidazole were synthesized and evaluated on their hydrolytic stability in various buffers and culture media.The hydrolytic susceptibility of the different esters was minimal in the pH range 3-5.In the alkaline region, pH 6.5-8, the half-lifes were of the order of 1-6.6 hrs.At alkaline pH the dipeptide esters were more susceptible towards hydrolysis.At pH 8.8 the observed half-life for the gly-gly and the gly-phe esters was 0.2 h, whereas for the gly and the phe ester it was 1.1 h, respectively 2.7 h.It was demonstrated that the increased rate of hydrolysis for the dipeptide esters was due to an intramolecular aminolysis with the formation of a diketopiperazine accompanied by the release of free metronidazole.
