Abstract
The N^2^‐methyl amino acid N^G^‐mesitylenesulfonyl‐[^3^H]methylarginine has been prepared in high specific activity tritium labelled form by treating methyl N^2^‐2,4‐dimethoxybenzyl‐N^G^‐mesitylenesulfonyl‐arginate with [^3^H]methyl iodide and silver(I) oxide. Removal of the dimethoxybenzyl group by transfer hydrogenation (4.4% formic acid in methanol/Pd black) followed by saponification gave N^G^‐mesitylenesulfonyl‐[^3^H]methylarginine in 30‐38% overall from [^3^H]methyl iodide. This amino acid was ultimately used in the preparation of tritium labelled SK&F 107260 which is a cyclic peptide showing fibrinogen receptor antagonism.

14-MethylC2, 3-3Hlhexadecanoic acid of a specific radioactivity of 5 1 Ci/mmol was pepared starting from 12-methyltetradecanoic acid isolated from wool fat. This fatty acid was converted into 12-methyltetradecanal which was reacted with ethyl diethylphosphonoacetate to yield 14-methylhexadecen-2-oic
An efficient synthesis of 2-pyrrolidinone and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone was developed in which the compounds can be labeled with tritium at either the 3-and 4-positions or the 4-position of the lactam ring. Cyclization of [2 3-3Hl-yarninobutyric acid (GABA) yielded [ 3, $-$I -2pyrrolidinone and cycli
