Boc-Lys(Z)-OH → 1-[N2-[(1,1-Dimethylethoxy)carbonyl]-N6-[(phenylmethoxy)carbonyl]-L-lysyl]-L-proline Methyl Ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

Boc-Lys(Z)-OH (1 equivalent), Pro-OMe hydrochloride (1 equivalent) and TEA (1 equivalent) were dissolved in dry methylene chloride, and WSCD (1 equivalent) was added under cooling with ice. Thereafter, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 20 hours, and the reaction mixture was washed successively with IN HCl, water, saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate, water and saturated brine. After drying over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under vacuum. The resulting crude product was purified by medium-pressure liquid column chromatography on silica gel to obtain the end compound. Boc-Lys(Z)-Pro-OMe (1 equivalent) thus obtained was dissolved in dry methylene chloride, and an excess of trifluoroacetic acid was added. The mixture was stirred (for about 6 hours), and the solvent was distilled off under vacuum to obtain the end compound (oil).
