Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Grassypeptolides are cytotoxic cyclic depsipeptides isolated from marine cyanobacteria. A synthesis of a southern tetrapeptide fragment towards the total synthesis of grassypeptolides has been achieved using a new hydrophobic thiol protecting group, 4,4'-bis(dococyloxy)trityl group (HTrt). The synthetic HTrt protected intermediates were easily isolated by precipitation with polar solvent such as acetonitrile. The target tetrapeptide was obtained in 63 % overall yield and high purity from Fmoc-Cys(HTr)-OAll (6 steps) without column chromatographic purification.
