The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of high purity crystalline peptides Arg Lys Asp hydrate acetate and Arg Lys Asp Val from crude, amorphous peptides Arg Lys Asp and Arg Lys Asp Val hydrate acetate.The process is characterized in thatthe crude, amorphous peptide Arg Lys Asp or Arg Lys Asp Val is let stand at room temperature in 5 to 20 unit volume of ethanol containing 0.5 to 4.0% by volume of acetic acid and 5 to 25% by volume of water, wherein the volume unit is calculated for the mass unit of the material and mass unit relates to volume unit as g relates to ml,then the crystallized peptide is separated from the crystalline suspension, preferably after cooling.
摘要:
New angiotensin-II analogues of the general formula (I),X-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Y-OA (I)whereinX stands for the acyl group of an N-methylamino acid, or the acyl group of an aliphatic .alpha.-aminooxy- or .alpha.-hydroxycarboxylic acid,Y is the residue of an aliphatic .alpha.-hydroxycarboxylic acid, andA is hydrogen or a C.sub.1-5 alkyl group,are prepared by removing the protecting groups of a protected octapeptide derivative of the general formula (II) or (III),B-X-Arg(C)-Val-Tyr(D)-Ile-His(E)-Pro-Y-OF (II)B-X-Arg(C)-Val-Tyr(D)-Ile-His(E)-Pro-Y-OA (III)whereinB is a group removable by acidolysis or catalytic hydrogenation,C is a group for the temporary protection of the guanidino group on the Arg moiety,D is a group for the temporary protection of the aromatic hydroxy group on the Tyr moiety,E is a group for the temporary protection of the imidazole group on the His moiety, andF is a group for the protection of the terminal carboxy group, resistant to the effect of mild acids but removable by catalytic hydrogenolysis or upon treatment with a stronger acid.The new compounds of the invention can be applied to diagnose and differentiate hypertensions of various origin, and in the therapy to suppress hypertensions of renal origin, in the treatment of hypertensive crises, secondary cardiac insufficiency, etc.
摘要:
New octapeptides of the general formula (I),X--Arg--Val--Tyr--Ile--His--Pro--Y--OA (I)whereinX stands for the acyl group of an N-methylamino acid or the acyl group of an aliphatic .alpha.-hydroxy- or .alpha.-aminooxycarboxylic acid,Y is the residue of an aliphatic amino acid, andA is a C.sub.1-5 alkyl group, are prepared so that the protecting groups of a protected octapeptide derivative of the general formula (II),B--X--Arg(C)--Val--Tyr(D)--Ile--His(E)--Pro--Y--OA (II)whereinB is a group removable by acidolysis or catalytic hydrogenation,C is a group for the temporary protection of the guanidino group on the Arg moiety,D is a group for the temporary protection of the aromatic hydroxy group on the Tyr moiety,E is a group for the temporary protection of the imidazole group on the His moiety, andA, X and Y are as defined above,are removed either stepwise or in a single step. If desired, a compound of the general formula (I) is converted into its acid addition salt or pharmaceutically acceptable complex.The new compounds according to the invention possess angiotensin-II antagonizing effects, and can be used in the therapy to diagnose or treat hypertensive states.
