Reaction Steps

A solution of Nα-isobutyl-Nα-(4-methylbenzenesulfonyl)-Nε-[N′α-(2-thiophenesulfonyl)-L-phenylalanyl]-L-lysine (650 mg, 1.0 mmol, example 24) dissolved in EtOAc (10 mL) was treated with p-nitrophenol (139 mg, 1.0 mmol) and DCC (206 mg, 1.0 mmol) and was left in a refrigerator overnight. Afterwards, the precipitate was filtered off through celite and the solvent evaporated. The crude intermediate was used without further purification in the next step. A portion of the intermediate (25 mg, 0.03 mmol) was added to a solution of ammonia in ethanol (1M, 10 mL). The resulting solution was stirred for 3 h before evaporation of the solvent. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC to yield 2.6 mg, 11% of the desired material.
