✦ Synopsis


INTRAMOLECULAR interaction of amide groups with various functional groups (OH, SH, NH2) has been repeatedly advanced as the underlying cause for the specific properties of peptides or related compound such as ergot alkaloids, 1 the antibiotics bacitracin A2 and polymyxin M, 3 peptides containing cysteine, serine and threonine residues, 495 esterases 6 etc. In all cases the formation of unstable intermediates (cyclols) has been postulated. However, X = 0, S, NH this assumption had no experimental backing, being based only on indirect evidence; namely, enhanced reactivity of the amide group or formation of unexpected reaction products. Investigation of this problem on examples wherein the cyclols formed were more or less stable would therefore be of considerable theoretical interest. 1 A. Stall, Proar. Chem. Ora. Nat. Prod. 2, 114 (1952).

A convergent synthesis of the pentapeptide poststatin has been developed. The key step involves oxidative cleavage of an aeyl cyanophosphorane. The resulting a,/3-diketo nitrile is then coupled to the free amine of a C-tenninal-dipoptidyl component to generate the protected natural product. Deprotec
