Three stereoisomers (cis-L,
trans-D and cis-D) of
N-Fmoc-glycyl-4-(thymin-1-yl)proline and their
pentafluorophenyl esters have been prepared for use in the synthesis of
novel peptide nucleic acids. In addition,
N-Fmoc-glycyl-4-(N6-benzoyladenin-
9-yl)proline,
N-Fmoc-glycyl-4-(N
4-benzoylcytosin
-1-yl)proline and
N-Fmoc-glycyl-4-(N
2-isobutyrylguan
in-9-yl)proline and their pentafluorophenyl esters of the
cis-D series have been synthesized.
