Abstract
The formyl tridepsipeptides HCO-Met-PSI[COO]Leu-Phe-OMe 3, HCO-Met-PSI [COO]Aib-Phe-OMe 4 and HCO-Met-Leu-PSI[COO]Phe-NHBz] 5 were synthesize d in order to investigate the biological consequences arising from int roduction of an ester bond at various positions in the chemotactic tri peptides. While analogs 3 and 4 were found lacking in biological activ ity, stressing an essential role for peptide bond at position 2, compo und 5 showed to retain activity.
