Amino-acids and Peptides. Part 45. The Protection of the Thiol Function of Cysteine and the Imidazole-N of Histidine by the Diphenyl-4-pyridylmethyl Group

S-(Diphenyl-4-pyridylmethyl)-L-cysteine (1) and its derivatives (2)-(7) have been prepared and used in peptide synthesis.In contrast to the analogous S-trityl group, this protection is stable in acid but it is cleaved readily by zinc-acetic acid, by mercury(II) acetate, by iodine, and by electrolytic reduction.N(Im)-Diphenyl-4-pyridylmethyl-L-histidine derivatives (9)-(13) are also reported; the protecting group is again stable to acid but cleaved by hydrogenolysis, by zinc-acetic acid, and by electrolytic reduction, and it has been used in the synthesis of L-histidyl-L-leucine, -L-phenylalanine, and -glycine.
