Abstract
Stepwise synthesis in solution provided tert-butyloxycarbonyl-O-benzyl-L-tyrosyl-D-alanyl-glycyl-L-phenylalanyl-L-tert-leucyl-L-arginine which was then catalytically reduced and treated with trifluoroacetic acid. The product was purified by ion exchange chromatography and free electrophoresis. The hexapeptide containing L-tert-leucine in position 5 exhibited 63% biologic activity (guinea pig ileum) of Dalargine (L-Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-L-Phe-L-Leu-L-Arg).
