Abstract
Abstract
This work is devoted to the large-scale solid-phase synthesis (SPS) of Atosiban, Mpa1-D-Tyr(OEt)-Ile-Thr-Asn-Cys6-Pro-Orn-Gly-NH2 cyclic 1,6 disulfide, the only clinically used oxytocin receptor antagonist. The conditions have been selected for the closure of the disulfide bond (S–S) in the Atosiban molecule both in the solution and solid phase with the minimal formation of by-products. A comparative assessment of the formation of the S–S bond was carried out under various conditions. The formation of by-products during the closure of the disulfide bond has been studied both in solution and on the polymer support. The developed technique allows for the synthesis of Atosiban on an enlarged scale (10–20 mmol) involving the cyclization of a protected intermediate with the formation of the S–S bond during solid-phase synthesis with the minimal formation of by-products.
