  • Abstract
    The synthesis of a novel potent cyclic peptide MC4-ligand by ring-closing metathesis (RCM) is described. Based on the Ac-Nle-Gly-Lys-d-Phe-Arg-Trp-Gly-NH2–MC4 ligand, Ac-Nle-Alg-Lys-d-Phe-Arg-Trp-Alg-NH2 was designed and synthesized followed by cyclization using RCM. Both compounds are high affinity and selective MC4-R-agonists. The cyclic RCM-peptide was more potent in a rat-grooming assay.
