Reaktionsschritte

L-hydroxyproline methylester hydrochloride is reacted with Fmoc-OSu in aqueous 1.0 N sodium carbonate/THF at room temperature. After completion of the reaction, Fmoc-Pro(4-OH)—OMe is isolated by precipitation. Fmoc-Pro(4-OH)—OMe is then added dropwise into a solution of trisphosgene (0.6 eq.) in THF to give a chlorocarbonate intermediate. After 1 h dimethylaminopyridine (1.0 eq.) and N-Boc-diaminoethane (6.0 eq.) are added and the reaction is stirred at room temperature. After completion of the reaction, the solvent is removed in vacuo and the resulting Fmoc-Pro(4-OCO—NH—CH2—CH2—NH-Boc)-OMe is extracted from a two phase system of ethyl acetate/0.1 M HCl to give crude product (MH+=554) which is purified by crystallization from ethyl acetate. The methyl ester is then cleaved to the free acid by treatment with 1N NaOH in dioxane/water and the product Fmoc-Pro(4-OCO—NH—CH2—CH2—NH-Boc)-OH is purified on silica gel, [(M+Na)]+=562).
