    Abstract:
    As part of a program in which we are attempting (a) to obtain more potent and/or more selective antagonists of the antidiuretic responses to arginine-vasopressin (AVP) and (b) to delineate the structural features at positions 1-9 required for antidiuretic antagonism, we have synthesized 13 new analogues of the antidiuretic antagonist [1-(beta-mercapto-beta,beta-pentamethylenepropionic acid),2-D-isoleucine,4- valine]arginine-vasopressin [d(CH2)5[D-Ile2]VAVP] in which the valine residue at position 4 has been replaced by the L-amino acids Abu, Ile, Thr, Ala, Ser, Nva, Gln, Leu, Lys, Cha, Asn, Orn, and Phe and two new analogues of the antidiuretic antagonist [1-(beta-mercapto-beta,beta-pentamethylenepropionic acid),2-D-phenylalanine,4- valine]arginine-vasopressin [d(CH2)5[D-Phe2]VAVP] with the Val4 residue replaced by Ser and Orn. These analogues are 1, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Abu4]AVP; 2, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Ile4]AVP; 3, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Thr4]AVP; 4, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Ala4]AVP; 5, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Ser4]AVP; 6, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Nva4]AVP; 7, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2]AVP; 8, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Leu4]AVP; 9, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Lys4]AVP; 10, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Cha4]AVP; 11, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Asn4]AVP; 12, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Orn4]AVP; 13, d(CH2)5[D-Ile2,Phe4]AVP; 14, d(CH2)5[D-Phe2,Ser4]AVP; and 15, d(CH2)5[D-Phe2,Orn4]AVP. The protected peptide precursors for these peptides were prepared by the solid-phase method, followed by ammonolytic cleavage. The free peptides 1-15 were obtained by deblocking with Na in NH3, oxidation of the resultant disulfhydryl compounds with dilute K3[Fe(CN)6], and purification on Sephadex G-15 in a two-step procedure with 50% HOAc and 0.2 M HOAc as eluants. Analogues 1-15 were tested in rats for agonistic and antagonistic activities by antidiuretic, vasopressor, and oxytocic assays.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
