Summary:A polypeptide of formula (I):- Mep = beta-mercaptopropionic acid at posn. 1; D-Arg = D-Arginine at posn. 8 The new polypeptide has greater specific anti-diuretic activity and may be used for the regulation or polyuria and reduction of polydypsia in Diabetes insipidus. R' = benzyl R"= p-toluenesulfonyl The oxidation is pref. carried out with potassium ferricyanide in aq. solution at pH 6.5-7.0 or in mixtures of water-miscible solvents. Substituents may be used for the protection of the sulfhydryl groups, the amino groups and the guanidine group,.
