5‐Hydroxypyrroloindoline Affords Tryptathionine and 2,2′‐bis‐Indole Peptide Staples: Application to Melanotan‐II

Chemistry – A European Journal, Volume 30, Issue 19, April 2, 2024.
Optionality for Indole‐based Peptide Stapling: hydroxypyrroloindoline, used regularly in reaction with cysteine to form a tryptathionine (Ttn) staple is found to react competitively with an indole to form a 2’2’‐bis‐indole tether (BITe). Judicious choice of protecting groups provides for chemoselectivity for optionality in terms of which staple is ...
