β¦ Synopsis
The protected pentapeptide, Boc-Tan-Cys(PMB)-Pro-Leu-GlyNH2+ and related thioasparaginyl compounds were prepared by an indirect method from their corresponding B-cyanoalanyl precursors by treatment with H2S/NH3. The optical purities of thioasparagine (Tan) derivatives were evaluated by two different approaches. Previously three separate groups have successfully synthesized peptide derivatives containing the thioamide function in the backbone, du Vigneaud,l Lawesson,2 and Ried.3 The synthesis of various protected derivatives of thioasparagine (H2NCH(CH2CSNH2)C02H) was first reported by Ressler and Banerjee.4 However, from our own work in this area, it appeared unlikely that thioasparagine-
