Abstract
N-pi-(1-Adamantyloxymethyl)histidine, His(N-pi-1-Adom), is prepared an
d its properties are examined. The 1-Adom group can be easily removed
by trifluoroacetic acid and it is stable to 20% piperidine-dimethylfor
mamide and 1 mol dm(-3) NaOH. His(N-pi-1-Adom) derivatives can suppres
s racemization during coupling reactions. His(N-pi-1-Adom) can be used
in solid-phase peptide synthesis in combination with fluoren-9-ylmeth
oxycarbonyl as an N-alpha-protecting group. Thyrotropin-releasing horm
one is successfully synthesized by using His(N-pi-1-Adom).
