Syntheses of several Trp-containing peptides on a Wang solid support afforded significant amounts of a side-product. 1 H-NMR and MS data showed that an unexpected alkylation by the linker has occurred on the indole nucleus. This was observed whatever the scavenger used, and whatever the position of

✦ Synopsis
A series of phosphopeptides Tyr(POsH2)-Val-Pro-Xxx-Leu (Xxx = Met, Met(O), Nle, Dab or Cys), derived from the native platelet-derived growth factor-J3 receptor (PDGF-I3) sequence, has been prepared to study their interaction with the src-homology 2 (SH2) domains of the p85 subunit of PI3 kinase. The phosphopeptides were synthesized using Fmoc methodology incorporating N~-Boc dibenzyl-protected phosphotyrosine (Boc-Tyr[PO3(Bzl)2]) as the N-terminal amino acid, since the benzyl groups can be removed during resin cleavage with TFA. Only peptides containing methionine were found to exist partially as S-benzyl sulfonium salts after TFA cleavage from the resin. The desired peptide could be obtained from the S-benzyl sulfonium salt by hydrogenolysis.

## Abstract Ammonolysis of nitroarginine‐containing peptides leads to the formation of ornithine‐containing side products. The structure of these side products has been deduced from model experiments. This side reaction can be avoided by using the N^G^‐tosyl or the N^G^‐dicarbobenzoxy protecting gr
