Journal of medicinal chemistry, 24(9), 1043-1047 (1981-09-01)
Gamma, gammma, gammma, gammma', gamma', gammma'-Hexafluorovaline and derivatives have been prepared and incorporated into angiotensin II by fragment condensation and solid-phase peptide synthesis. Hexafluorovaline derivatives showed general resistance toward various enzymatic digestions and the tendency to racemize extensively upon carboxyl
K H Hsieh et al.
Journal of medicinal chemistry, 30(6), 1097-1100 (1987-06-01)
An improved synthesis of hexafluorovaline (Hfv) derivatives, i.e., DL-Hfv-OBzl and Boc-DL-Hfv, is described. Incorporation of hexafluorovaline into angiotensin resulted in [Sar1,Hfv8]AII and [Sar1,D-Hfv8]AII. At the nanogram/milliliter dose range, the L congener was 20-100 times more active as either angiotensin agonist
