Giant macrolactams based on ?-sheet peptides.


ABSTRACT: This paper reports the use of natural amino acids, the tripeptide ?-strand mimic Hao, and the ?-turn mimic ?-linked ornithine to generate water-soluble 54-, 78-, and 102-membered-ring macrolactams. These giant macrocycles were efficiently prepared by synthesis of the corresponding protected linear peptides, followed by solution-phase cyclization and deprotection. The protected linear peptide precursors were synthesized on 2-chlorotrityl chloride resin by conventional Fmoc-based solid-phase peptide synthesis. Macrocyclization was typically performed using HCTU and N,N-diisopropylethylamine in DMF at ca. 0.5 mM concentration. The macrocycles were isolated in 13-45% overall yield after HPLC purification and lyophilization. 1D, 2D TOCSY, and 2D ROESY (1)H NMR studies of the 54- and 78-membered-ring macrolactams establish that these compounds fold to form ?-sheet structures in aqueous solutions.
