Protected arginine thioacid enables convenient N-acylation with no detectable racemization. We report efficient syntheses of potentially biologically active arginine conjugates and novel arginine-containing di-, tri- and tetrapeptides in good yields witho

(Chemical Equation Presented) L-Nω-Nitroarginine and L-arginine were coupled with N-(Cbz-α-aminoacyl)benzotriazoles and N-Cbz-dipeptidoylbenzotriazoles to provide arginine LL-dipeptides 9a-e, 11a-d; LLL-tripeptides 18a-c, 20; and diastereomeric mixtures (9b+9b′), (9c+9c′), (11b+11b′) and (18c+18c′) [compound numbers written within parentheses represent a diastereomeric mixture or racemate; compound numbers without parentheses represent an achiral compound or a single enantiomer] by extension at the N-terminus of arginine, in isolated yields of 66-95% with complete retention of chirality as evidenced by NMR and HPLC analysis. Arginine LL-dipeptides 15a-d were synthesized by extension at the C-terminus of arginine in isolated yield of 66-80%, using benzotriazole activated arginine L-ωNO2-Arg-Bt, 13. Our methodology has also been used to synthesize the protected RGD peptide (Cbz α-L-ωNO2-Arg-Gly-L-Asp-(OH) 2) 21.
