Attachment of histidine, histamine and urocanic acid to resins of the trityl-type (original) (raw)
Abstract
Histidine, histamine and urocanic acid were attached through the N mfunction on resins of the trityl type. The conditions of the cleavage of these derivatives from the resin were determined. Resin bound histamine was used in the solid phase synthesis of carcinine.

PII: $0040-4039(99)00270-1 Histidine (2) and its degradation products histamine (8) and urocanic acid (14), are widely distributed in nature and are involved in several important biological functions [1-8]. Their attachment onto suitable solid supports will allow their application to combinatorial chemistry, aimed at the development of new drugs.
Groups of the trityl-type are well suited for the protection of the N™-function of histidine [9-10] Therefore the corresponding trityl-type [11-13] resins 1 were chosen for the attachment of these imidazolyl-derivatives. Attachment of histidine was performed analogously [9] to the method used for the side-chain tritylation of histidine (2). Thus, 2 applied in a twofold molar excess over resin 1, was protected simultaneously at the N°- and the carboxy-functions by its reaction with dichlorodimethylsilane in refluxing chloroform. Without isolation of the intermediate 3, this was reacted with the trityl chloride resins 1 anc triethylamine, according to Scheme 1. The dimethylsily! group, was subsequently removed by treatment with dichloromethane (DCM)/diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA)/ methanol (85:5:15). Concurrently with the silyl-group removal, unreacted remaining trityl chloride groups were converted to the corresponding inert tritylmethyl ether. The yield of the histidine attachment, according to this procedure, is high and almost corresponds to the complete substitution of the trityl chloride groups of the resins. This was determined by the quantitative Kaiser-test. To obtain a suitably N’-protected resin-bound His-derivative, we reacted § with excess Fmoc-OSu and DIPEA or Fmoc-Cl/DIPEA in dioxane or DMF for 24 h at 40°C. Under these conditions it was not possible to convert 5 completely to the corresponding Fmoc-derivative 6. The latte was alternatively obtained in 50% attachment yield by the direct treatment of N’-Fmoc-His with resins 1 and the 90% of the equimolar amount of DIPEA. The hydrogen chloride produced during the reaction cannot be neutralised completely by the DIPEA present in the reaction mixture. Under these slightly acidic reaction conditions, the attachment of Fmoc-His to the resin through its carboxy function is avoided Similarly Fmoc-His-amide was attached to the resins.
