Process for preparing octreotide and derivatives thereof
This invention relates a process for preparing octreotide and derivatives thereof. The starting material, Thr(ol)(tBu)-2-chlorotrityl resin is coupled with the various amino acids. The straight peptide-resin of D-Phe-Cys(Trt)-Phe-D-Trp(Boc)-Lys(Boc)-Thr(tBu)-Cys(Trt)-Thr(ol)(tBu)-2-chlorotrityl resin or D-Phe-Cys(Trt)-Tyr(tBu)-D-Trp(Boc)-Lys(Boc)-Thr(tBu)-Cys(Trt)-Thr(ol)(tBu)-2-chlorotrityl resin was obtained. Cleavage of the peptide from the resin was achieved by strong acid solution. The cleaved peptide reacted with charcoal to give disulfide-containing peptide of
