Abstract
Deamino-6-carba-oxytocin analogues with modified aromatic amino acid in the position 2 were prepared by stepwise peptide synthesis in solution and cyclization in the last step. Some of the prepared analogues exhibit high and/or specific natriuretic activity. Structural requirements for this type biologic activity are discussed.
