Disulfide-containing peptides may be obtained in good yields and purities when oxidations are carried out on peptide chains anchored to polymeric supports used for solid-phase synthesis. Such approaches take advantage of the pseudo-dilution phenomenon which favors intramolecular processes. A variety of procedures have been demonstrated using the related model peptides Ac-Cys-Pro-D Val-Cys-NH2 and Ac-Pen-Pro-D Val-Cys-NH2 (which both readily assume a type II beta-turn conformation that becomes stabilized by a 14-membered disulfide-containing intramolecular ring), and oxytocin (conformationally mobile 20-membered disulfide ring). Both Boc and Fmoc were used for N alpha-amino protection, the beta-thiols of cysteine or penicillamine were blocked by S-acetamidomethyl (Acm), S-9-fluorenylmethyl (Fm), or S-trityl (Trt), and compatible anchoring linkages included HF-labile 4-methylbenzhydrylamide (MBHA), TFA-labile tris (alkoxy)benzylamide (PAL), and photolabile o-nitrobenzylamide (Nonb). Assemblies of linear sequences proceeded smoothly, and polymer-supported oxidations were carried out in a variety of ways either directly or after deblocking to the resin-bound dithiol. Chains were released from the support without substantial damage to the disulfide bridges, and overall yields were as high as 60-90%.
