Description

TECHNOLOGICAL FIELD
The present invention pertains to protective and anchor groups useful in peptide synthesis, particularly in multistep peptide synthesis.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Regioselective chemical conversion of a compound with a plurality of different chemical functions requires the protection of all these functions as far as that/those by means of which the chemical reaction is to be initiated. Molecule groups (protective groups) are introduced in order to protect these functions. In conjunction with this, these can be removed in a non-disruptive manner and selectively, with re-formation of the original function. For complex multi-stage syntheses, particularly of natural substances, such as oligopeptides and oligonucleotides, various types of protective groups are necessary. They are characterised by intensely differing conditions of splitting. A system of protective groups in which the individual types are so selectively splittable that all the other respective groups remain unaffected, it termed orthogonal. The principle is the subject of the chemistry of protective groups (see Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Greene, T. W. & Wuts, P. G. M. Eds., 2.sup.nd ed., 1991, John Wiley & Sons Inc., New York).
If the type of protective group has a further reactive function, it can be linked covalently and in a stable way with a carrier material for solid-phase synthesis. Then the terms "active group" or "linker group" are used (see e.g. Breitpohl et al. In Tetrahedron Lett. 28 (1987) 5651-5654 and Guibe et al. in Tetrahedron Lett. 30 (1989) 2641-2644). A special type of protective group or also active group is that which must firstly be brought into a labile form by a preceding chemical reaction, and which then in a second step can be split off under very gently conditions (protected protective group--"Safety-Catch" grouping; cf. E.g. Patek in Int. J. Peptide Protein Res. 42 (1993) 97-1176). Although in such a case two reaction steps are required for splitting, such groupings can have great advantages.
(i) it can be very stable against many, even extremely drastic reaction conditions, but can be split by the sequence of two specific extremely mild reaction steps.
(ii) the labile intermediate stage of the protective group can be sufficiently stable to offer good, or better, opportunities for isolation and cleaning the end product.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The object underlying the invention is to propose for a carbamide function (CONH.sub.2 -function) a special type of protective or anchor group having the following features:
(i) the protective or active group is to be protected;
(ii) the labile intermediate stage is to be stable under appropriate reaction conditions and permit cleaning of the intermediate products;
(iii) the labile intermediate stage is to be able to decompose in aqueous physiological buffer solution at neutral pH (7) or almost neutral pH (5 to 9), and re-form the original carbamide function, so that the synthesis product can be used directly (without further cleaning) with a free carbamide function in a biocellular or biochemical test experiment.
According to the invention, there is also to be provided, for a carbamide function (CO--NH.sub.2 -function), a special type of protective group as an active group for the solid-phase synthesis of peptides (but also other molecular structures with a carbamide function), particularly according to the Fmoc-tBu-method (Fmoc SPPS) (see Fields & Noble in Int. J. Peptide Protein Res. 35 (1990) 161-214)and Boc/Bzl method (Boc SPPS) (see Barany et al. Int. J. Peptide Protein Res.(1987) 705-739.
The object underlying the invention is now achieved by a carbamide of the general formula:
R.sub.1 --CO--NH--C(R.sub.2)(R.sub.3)--X--Y
which is protected by a temporary protective group and wherein
R.sub.1 --CO means a carbonyl residue which can be provided as a unit for the chain of a peptide, and can have one or a plurality of amino acid residues;
R2 and R3 mean resides of the carbamide which do not participate in their function, whereby R2 and R3 can be identical or different, but are different when one of the two residues means a hydrogen atom;
X means an oxygen atom or a sulphur atom, and
Y means a protective group for X.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The chemical bond between protective group and carbamide function can thus be a N-acyl-N.O-- or N-acyl-N.S acetal structure. This N-acyl-N.O-- or N-acyl-N.S acetal can be introduced by conversion of the carboxyl function with the amino function of a suitable N.O-- or N.S-acetal, the oxygen or sulphur function being protected and the amino function being free (reaction path A, see illustration). It can further be introduced by conversion of the carbamide function with a suitable keto- or aldehyde function (reaction path B, see illustration). In order that the labile N.O or N>S-acetal (II) can be isolated with a free hydroxyl or thiol function, the N.O or N.S acetal must be flanked by intensely electron-attractive substituents. N.O or N.S acetals with free hydroxyl or thiol function are more or less easily split hydrolytically in an aqueous solution with catalysis of bases. The hydroxyl or thiol function of the protective group is therefore to be protected by a further protective group Y, which prevents hydrolysis of the N.O or N.S acetal under the conditions of synthesis on R.sub.1. The Y group is to be stable under the conditions of synthesis on R.sub.1. ##STR1##
In the above illustration of the general principle of the protective or active group, and of the concept of synthesis, the following can mean:
______________________________________R.sub.1 residue of the compound to be protected;R.sub.2, R.sub.3 residues of the protective group which do not participate in their function; if R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 have an additional reactive function for a link with carrier materials, for example COOH,NH.sub.2 SH, then the protective group is used as an active group;Y the protective group for hydroxyl or thiol function.______________________________________
In the carbamide according to the invention, therefore, R.sub.2 and/or R.sub.3 can be intensely electron-attractive groups, particularly groups according to the Erlenmeyer Rule for O.O, N.O and N.S acetals.
Further, in the carbamide according to the invention, R.sub.2 and/or R.sub.3 can mean a halogen alkyl group, for example a trifluoromethyl group, or a carboxyl group, if necessary derivatised, for example a --CO--NH--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --COOH group (--CO .beta.Ala-OH group), or an alkyl ester carbonyl group, for example a --COOCH.sub.3 group.
In the carbamide according to the invention R.sub.2 and/or R.sub.3 can have an additional reactive function for linking with a carrier material, for example a carboxyl, amino or thiol group.
For Y, reference may be made to Greene & Wuts loc. Cit. In the carbamide according to the invention carbamide can be an alkyl group, for example a methyl, ethyl, i-propyl, t-butyl group, a substituted alkyl group, for example CH.sub.3 --O--CH.sub.2 or (CH.sub.3).sub.3 Si--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --O--CH2 group, an aryl group or an alkyl silyl group, e.g. a t-butyldimethylsilyl group.
The object underlying the invention is further achieved by a process for producing a protected carbamide, which is characterised in that a compound with the formula
H.sub.2 N--C(R.sub.2)(R.sub.3)X--Y
is converted with a compound of the formula
R.sub.1 --COOH
R1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3, X and Y having the meanings given above. The object underlying the invention is further achieved by a process for producing a protected carbamide which is characterised in that
a) a compound of the formula C(R.sub.2)(R.sub.3).dbd.X is converted with a compound of the formula R.sub.1 --CO--NH.sub.2 to form a compound with the formula R.sub.1 --CO--NH--C(R.sub.2)(R.sub.3)--XH, and
b) the XH group of the reaction product according to (a) is transferred into an X--Y group, whereby R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, X and Y have the meanings given above.
The carbamide according to the invention can be used for peptide synthesis and for peptide synthesis on a carrier material.
The carbamide according to the invention can also already be linked to a carrier material.





The invention will be explained in more detail in the following by means of examples.

The protected peptide (LA.4.1) is built up according to normal peptide synthesis conditions on an o-chlorotrityl-functionalized resin, using (LA.4.3), and divided from the carrier as usual. The amino function of the protected N.O-acetals is here released with 10% morpholine/5% triethylammonium chloride/DMF.-- MS (FAB, 3-NBA): m/z=788 (27, [M+H].sup..sym.).
Application
The protected peptide (LA.4.1) displays total stability against 20% piperidine/DMF (shown by quantitative UV/VIS-analysis of the individual coupling steps, and by treatment of the protected peptide (LA.4.1)in solution with 20% piperidine/DMF). After division of the hydroxyl protective group according to usual procedures (and simultaneously the Boc protective group of the lysyl residue), the deprotected peptide is treated with buffer system (a), (b) and (g).

The protected model peptide (LA.5.1) was synthesised on o-chlorotrityl-functionalised polystyrol in stages using the linker block (LA.5.2). The amino function on the linker block (LA.5.2) is deprotected with 20% piperidine/DMF. Cleaning is effected chromatograpically RP-C.sub.18 -HPLC. Both diastereomers are chromatographically separable.-- MS (FAB) m/z (3-NBA)=718 ([M+H].sup..sym.).
Appplication
During synthesis of the protected peptide (LA.5.1), the N.S=acetal deprotected on nitrogen and protected at the thiol function was passed through. This is stable against 20% piperidine/DMF and can be brought to reaction with the following amino acid derivate without appreciable disruption of the N.S-acetal structure. The peptide (LA.5.1) split from the resin was in addition treated with the splitting reagent fro 24 h. No alteration in the educt is observed. Treatment of (LA.5.1) with 95% TFA/2.5% TIBS/2.5% H.sub.2 O leads to splitting of the Boc protective group in the lysin residue. Under these conditions the thiol function of the N.S-acetal remains protected. The partially deprotected peptide is treated with an excess of 2% aqueous Hg-II-chloride together with 10% aqueous acetic acid. These conditions lead to transfer of the N.S-acetal into an N.O-acetal. This is stable under acidic aqueous conditions. The N.O-acetal thus presented decomposes in the desired way into the peptidamide H-LysPhe-Phe-NH.sub.2 under neutral aqueous conditions within minutes at 50.degree. C. and about 15 min. At RT (buffer system: a,b,f,g). Thus (LA.5.2) is suitable as a linker block in the proposed way.

The alkyl-/aryl thio compounds were obtained, similarly to (LA.5.2) from (LB.2.4) and the corresponding thiols. The data are reproduced in the following. The compounds behave similarly to (LA.5.2-LA.7.2). By means of treatment with Hg-II salts, the corresponding model compounds transform into the corresponding N.O-acetals. By means of 95% TFA/2.5% TIBS/2.5% water, (LB.2.9) can be transferred directly into the corresponding deprotected N.S-acetal (fre thiol function). This decomposes in the desired way into the peptidamide H-Lys-Phe-Phe-NH2.

Application
The protected peptide (LA.3.1) is treated in solution in addition with 20% piperidine/DMF over 5 h at RT. No alteration in the educt is observed (HPLC analysis). Treatment with 95% TFA/2.5% TIBS/2.5% water leads to simultaneous deprotection of BOC in the lysyl residue, and the hydroxyl function of the N.O-acetal. This deprotected peptide decomposes in the desired way into the peptidamide by treatment with buffer system (a) to (9). Reaction takes place within 15 min. At 50.degree. C.

Application
Treatment with 95% TFA/2.5% TIBS/2.5% water leads to simultaneous deprotection of BOC in the lysyl residue and the hydroxyl function of the N.O-acetal. This deprotected peptide decomposes in the desired way into the peptidamide by treatment with buffer system (a) to (g). Reaction takes place within 15 min. At 50.degree. C.
In addition to the protected peptide (LB.4.1), a model compound (LB.4.4) is synthesized on the o-chlorotrityl-functionalized polystyrol resin, and divided off as a protected peptide from the resin. This protected peptide is treated with 0.2 M tetrabutylammonium fluoride/acetonitrile over 5 h. In this way the hydroxyl function od the N.O-acetal is selectively deprotected. The treatment with buffer system (g) in mixture with 35% ethanol leads to the protected peptidamide H-Lys(Boc)-Trp(Boc)-Asp(tBu)-Asn(Trt)-Phe-NH2 SEQ ID NO: 15.

Transfer to Routine Peptide Synthesis
In adition to the experiments in solution and the synthesis of the model compounds illustrated above, there were built up with the linker blocks (LA.6.1), (LA.7.2) and (LB.3.2) peptides of different sequence (sequence length up to 10 amino acid residues), using an amino-functionalized polyethylene glycol resin (TentaGel.TM. S Amine) or on .beta.-alanin-functionalized cellulose paper (Whatman 3MM) and, when (LB.3.2) is used with 95% TFA/2.5% TIBS/2.5% water, and when (LA.6.1) (LA.7.2) and are used, deprotected in the two-stages processes described above. The polymer materials are thereupon washed, each three times for 10 min. with MeOH/water 1:1 (0.1% HCl) and 1 M acetic acid/water, and dried in HV 12 h. Division of the peptidamides is effected in buffer system (b) (see below) at 50.degree. C. and leads to peptidamides with the expected purity. The results clearly show,
that the N.O/N.S-acetal used, and correspondingly protected, as a protective group or anchor group, is stable (Fmoc SPPS) under the basic reaction conditions (e.g. 20% piperidine in DMF) of synthesis of R.sub.1.
that the N.O-acetal used, and correspondingly protected, as an anchor group, is stable (Boc SPPS) under the acidic reaction conditions (e,g, 55% TFA/DCM) of the synthesis of R.sub.1.
That the deprotected N.O/N.S-acetal is stable under the acidic aqueous conditions, and the correspondingly protected compounds can be purified.
that a division of the protective group (with deprotected hydroxyl or thiol function) is possible under neutral reaction conditions (pH=7).
that the concept can be used both as a protective group and as an anchor group.
