Abstract:The design and synthesis of novel bioisosteric analogues of triptorelin acetate containing tetrazole moiety at C‐ or N‐terminus of the peptides is described. Tetrazole acetic acid was synthesized through the reaction of an alkyl cyanoacetate and sodium azide, after that, it was coupled to the N‐terminus of triptorelin instead of pyroglutamic acid. In another approach, tetrazole acetohydrazide was prepared and conjugated to the C‐terminus of triptorelin instead of the amide bond. The synthesized peptides contai… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
