Cyclization of peptides

The synthesis of a disulfide cyclic peptide by preparing an intermediate peptide containing two cysteine moieties, each of which is protected by an n-alkylthio group, or when one of such moieties is in an amino terminal position, this one moiety may be protected by a cysteine group while the other i...

More Information
Summary:The synthesis of a disulfide cyclic peptide by preparing an intermediate peptide containing two cysteine moieties, each of which is protected by an n-alkylthio group, or when one of such moieties is in an amino terminal position, this one moiety may be protected by a cysteine group while the other is protected by an n-alkylthio group, and placing such intermediate peptide in a solution substantially free of oxygen and preferably at a pH of from 5 to 10 until rearrangement has taken place, to yield a cyclic disulfide peptide. The disclosure also embraces said intermediate peptides as new compounds and the processes by which they are prepared.
