Exploring the interest of 1,2-Dithiolane ring system in peptide chemistry. Synthesis of a chemotactic tripeptide and x-ray crystal structure of a 4-amino-1,2-dithiolane-4-carboxylic acid derivative

Due to their relevant biological functions and specific chemical reactivity 1,2-dithiolanes (five-membered cyclic disulfides) represent an emerging class of heterocyclic compounds. However, despite the extensive research centered on lipoic acid and its analogues, only very few data are at the present available on peptides containing this ring system. We report here synthesis, conformation and bioactivity of a fMLF-OMe analogue, namely For-Met-Adt-Phe-OMe (7), in which the residue of the 4-amino-1,2-dithiolane-4-carboxylic acid (Adt) (4) replaces the central L-leucine. The crystal conformation of the synthetic intermediate Boc-Adt-OMe (5) is also described and compared to that of lipoic acid (R-1,2-dithiolane-3-pentanoic acid) (3) and asparagusic acid (1,2-dithiolane-4-carboxylic acid) (2).
