title: Pentagastrin analogs containing alpha-aminooxy acids, I. Synthesis of analogs substituted at the N-terminus.
abstract: Nine new pentagastrin analogs containing a free or protected alpha-aminooxy acid at the N-terminus were synthesized stepwise. Analogs containing leucyl, norleucyl, norvalyl, L- and D-2-aminodecanoyl residues instead of methionyl residue were also prepared. The peptides were synthesized by the active ester method with subsequent removal of the protecting groups. The purification of the end products was performed by crystallization or column chromatography on silica gel.
