Popis: An efficient and generally applicable method for the synthesis of head-to-tail cyclic peptides with HBTU (2-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3, 3-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate) has been developed. The utility of this approach was exemplified with the multigram preparation of a potent endothelin receptor-selective (ETA) antagonist BQ-123 (cyclo[-d-Trp-d-Asp-Pro-d-Val-Leu-]). This methodology can be readily applied to the small-and largescale synthesis of other head-to-tail cyclic peptides.
