    Abstract:
    Synthesis is described of the partially protected octapeptide tert-butyloxycarbonyl-gamma-tert-butylglutamylasparaginyl-N-trifluoroacetyllysyl-N-trifluoracetyllysylarginyl-Ngamma-4,4'-dimethoxybenzhydryglutaminylthreonylproline corresponding to positions 36-43 of the amino acid sequence of porcine pancreatic secretory trypsin inhibitor II. The tetrapeptide free base arginyl-Ngamma-4,4'-dimethoxybenzhydrylglutaminylthreonylproline was acylated, by the azide proceedure, with the tripeptide benzyloxycarbonyl-asparaginyl-N-trifluoroacetyllsyl-N-trifluoroacetyllysine hydrazide. The resulting protected heptapeptide was partially deblocked by catalytic hydrogenation and reacted with alpha-1-succinimidyl-gamma-tert-butyl tert-butyloxycarbonylglutamate. The stereochemical homogeneity of the ensuing octapeptide was assessed, after partial deprotection with aqueous 90% trifluoroacetic acid, by digestion with papain and aminopeptidase M followed by quantitative amino acid analysis.
