UNIQUE 1'-O-BOC PROTECTION OF VIRGINIAMYCIN S AND RESULTING RESISTANCE AGAINST SODIUM HYDROXIDE

The picolinic hydroxyl in Virginiamycin S1 (VS%1; 1a) can be protected with di-tert-butyloxycarbonate affording the tert-butyloxycarbonyl derivative thus yielding VS1-1'-O-Boc (1b) in a fast and quantitative conversion without concomitant betaine (1c) formation.Once protected however, the lactone bond in 1b can no longer be cleaved under mild alkaline conditions.A possible explanation is given.
A SEARCH FOR PHENOLIC PROTECTION IN VIRGINIAMYCIN S

In order to be able to mask the hydroxyl grouping of the pipecolic acid residue in Virginiamycin during alkaline (NaOH) and acidic (Tfa) break-down procedures and to use peptidic fragments coming thereof for further reconstitution by classical peptide synthesis procedures, we have investigated several candidates for protection/deprotection.Thus the phenacyl derivatives (4 and 5), the allyloxycarbonyl derivative (6), the trichloroethyloxycarbonyl derivatives (8 and 9) and the 2,4-dinitrophenyl derivative (10) have been prepared.Among these none were stable in aqueous basic conditions.The Alloc- (6) the Troc- (8) and Dnp-derivative (10) may have some applications under acidic conditions.
