Reaktionsschritte

N-methyl-glycyl-biotin is esterified in refluxing methanol containing gaseous HCl to give the methylester, methyl-(N-methyl)glycyl-biotin. This methyl ester is dissolved in ethylene diamine and stirred at 23° C. for 14 hours to afford biotinyl-N-methyl-glycyl-ethylene diamine monoamide. The solvent (ethylene diamine) is evaporated under vacuum. The amino group of biotinyl-N-methyl-glycyl-ethylene diamine monoamide is acylated with N-hydroxysuccinimidyl iodoacetate (prepared from iodoacetic acid available from Aldrich Chemical Co., N-hydroxysuccinimide and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC)) in DMF with triethylamine to form an acylated iodinated biotin derivative. Troc-NH-palytoxin prepared as set forth above is deprotonated with 1.0 equivalents of sodium hydride and O-alkylated with the iodo-biotin derivative, N-(iodoacetyl)-ethylene-diamine-N′-(N-methyl)glycylbiotin, to afford the ether, N-(trichloroethoxycarbonyl)-palytoxin-mono-oxo-N-acetamido-ethylenediamine-N′-(N-methyl)glycylbiotin. The trichloro-carbamate group of the ether is cleaved with zinc in aqueous THF, pH 5.5-7.2, to afford the final product.
