AbstractThe acid-labile 5-[(9-aminoxanthen-2-yl)oxy]valeric acid was prepared in a six-step route. The usefulness of the resulting handle was investigated with solid-phase peptide synthesis of cholecystokinin-8 sulfate and the phosphorylated fragment of the ζ-subunit of the T-cell receptor complex 138-144.

The protection of side-chain arginine in solid-phase peptide synthesis requires attention since current protecting groups have several drawbacks. Herein, the NO2 group, which is scarcely used, has been revisited. This work shows that it prevents the formation of δ-lactam, the most severe side-reaction during the incorporation of Arg. Moreover, it is stable in solution for long periods and can be removed in an easy-to-understand manner. Thus, this protecting group can be removed while the protected peptide is still anchored to the resin, with SnCl2 as reducing agent in mild acid conditions using 2-MeTHF as solvent at 55 °C. Furthermore, we demonstrate that sonochemistry can facilitate the removal of NO2 from multiple Arg-containing peptides.
