Abstract
A solid-phase strategy for the synthesis of biaryl cyclic peptides containing a side-chain to side-chain His-Tyr linkage was developed. The key step was the macrocyclization of a linear peptidyl resin incorporating a 5-bromohistidine and a 3-boronotyrosine via the formation of the biaryl bond by means of a microwave-assisted Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. This method allowed direct access to biaryl cyclic peptides containing a 3- or 5-amino acid ring and bearing the histidine residue at the N- or the C-terminus, being especially conducive for analogues in which this amino acid is located at the C-terminus. This study also served to establish a strategy for the synthesis of biaryl cyclic peptides derived from the two hemispheres of the natural biaryl bicyclic peptides aciculitins.
