✦ Synopsis


The tryptophan isomers of the cyclic tetrapeptide CJ-15,208, reported to be a kappa opioid receptor (KOR) antagonist [Saito, T.; Hirai, H.; Kim, Y. J.; Kojima, Y.; Matsunaga, Y.; Nishida, H.; Sakakibara, T.; Suga, O.; Sujaku, T.; Kojima, N. J. Antibiot. (Tokyo)2002, 55, 847-854.], were synthesized to determine the tryptophan stereochemistry in the natural product. A strategy was developed to select linear precursor peptides that favor cyclization using molecular modeling, and optimized cyclization conditions are reported. The optical rotation of the l-Trp isomer is consistent with that of the natural product. Unexpectedly both isomers exhibit similar nanomolar affinity for KOR.
