Participants

Reaction Steps

N-Boc-D-Arginine hydrochloride (100 mg, 0.3 mmol) was coupled with benzylamine (40 uL, 0.4 mmol) using the mixed anhydride method described in Example 322 to give N-Boc-D-arginine benzylamide. The Boc group was removed by treatment with 4 M hydrochloric acid in dioxane for 1 h. The resulting D-arginine benzylamide was coupled to N-Boc-(N-methyl)phenylalanyl-lysyl(N-epsilon-Boc)-prolyl-{(2R)-2-amino-3-cyclohexylpropanoyl}-{(2S)-2-amino-3-cyclohexylpropanoyl}-OH, which was prepared as described in Example 322, using 1-(3-dimethyl-aminopropyl)-3-ethyl carbodiimide hydrochloride in dimethylformamide using the method described in Example 322. The crude product was deprotected with 50% trifluoroacetic acid in methylene chloride. The material thus obtained was purified by HPLC as described in Example 2 to give the title compound in 26% overall yield.
