Popis: Oligomers of arginine, such as octa- d -arginine amide, are excellent transporters for active drugs through cell membranes and tissue. The synthesis of octa- d -arginine amide, as the nonahydrochloride salt, was approached via a solution phase synthetic route involving the preparation of an octa- d -ornithine intermediate, which was then converted into the desired octa- d -arginine compound through a guanidinylation step. The multi-step synthesis was carried out at pilot scale, resulting in the preparation of 700 g of the target molecule. No chromatographic purification was needed at any step of the process.
