Abstract
[GRAPHICS] Three oxazole analogues of the insect neuropeptide proctolin (H-Arg-Tyr-Leu -Pro-Thr-OH) have been prepared, containing a single oxazole between Tyr an d Pro and between Pro and Thr, respectively. A compound containing an oxazo le moiety between Tyr and Pro and between Pro and Thr has also been prepare d. All compounds have been tested for myotropic activity.
