pubmed-article:17551641 | pubmed:abstractText | The four diastereomers of 2,5-bis[(3-guanidino)propyl]-1-[3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionyl]-7-(2-naphthylacetyl)-1,4,7-triazacycloundec-9-en-3-one (-) and of 2,5-bis[(3-guanidino)propyl]-1-(4-hydroxyphenylacetyl)-7-(2-naphthylacetyl)-1,4,7-triazacycloundec-9-en-3-one (-) were synthesized by a divergent methodology from l- and D-glutamic acids. The 11-membered ring core was made by ring closing metathesis of linear bis(allylamines), and the guanidyl functions were introduced by a simultaneous double Mitsunobu reaction using bis(Boc)guanidine. These compounds were designed to mimic cyclic pentapeptide FC131 (c[Gly-D-Tyr-Arg-Arg-Nal]). | lld:pubmed |
