On-resin cyclization of peptide ligands of the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 1 by copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar azide-alkyne cycloaddition

Bioorg Med Chem Lett. 2007 Oct 15;17(20):5590-4. doi: 10.1016/j.bmcl.2007.07.087. Epub 2007 Aug 22.

Abstract

Cyclic peptides were obtained, on-resin, by the copper (I) catalysed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azides and alkynes. The reaction led exclusively to the formation of the expected cyclomonomeric products which acted as ligands of the Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor receptor 1.
