[reaction: see text] Transformation of enantiopure (2R,1'S)- or (2S,1'S)-2-(1-aminoalkyl)epoxides 1 or 2 into the corresponding (2R,3S)- and (2S,3S)-1,3-diaminoalkan-2-ols 3 or 4 is described. The opening of the epoxide ring with different nitriles (Ritter reaction) takes place with total selectivity and in high yields in the presence of BF3.Et2O. Interestingly, the two amine groups are differently protected. A mechanism to explain this transformation is proposed.

Whereas arginine vasopressin binds to its receptor subtypes V(1)R and V(2)R with equal affinity of approximately 2 nM, nonpeptide antagonists interact differently with vasopressin receptor subtypes. The V(2)R antagonist binding site was mapped by site-directed mutagenesis at six selected amino acid positions, K100D, A110W, M120V, L175Y, R202S, and F307I, predicted to be involved in antagonist binding differences between V(2) R and V(1)R. These mutations did not alter the affinity for arginine vasopressin.

Evidence is increasing that therapeutic modulation of neurohormonal activation with vasopressin receptor antagonists via V(1A) and V(2) receptors may favourably affect prognosis of heart failure. This study was designed to compare in vivo hemodynamic effects of early treatment (1-21 days after infarction) with a V(1A) (SR-49059 or ((2S)1-[(2R3S)-5-chloro-3-(2-chlorophenyl)-1-(3,4-dimethoxybenzene-sulfonyl)-3-hydroxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-2-carbonyl]-pyrrolidine-2-carboxamide); 0.3 mg/kg/day) and a V(2) (SR-121463B or (1-[4-(N-tert-Butylcarbamoyl)-2-methoxybenzene sulfonyl]-5-ethoxy-3-spiro-[4-(2-morpholinoethyoxy)-cyclo-hexane]indol-2one,furmate; 0.

A simple and sensitive radioimmunoassay (RIA) method was developed for determination of DX-9065a, (+)-(2S)-2[4-[[(3S)-1-acetimidoyl-3-pyrrolidinyl] oxy]phenyl]-3-[7-amidino-2-naphthyl]propanoic acid hydrochloride pentahydrate, a newly synthesized anticoagulant agent. Immunogens were prepared by condensation of a hapten with bovine serum albumin via a carboxyl group. Antisera was obtained by immunization of five rabbits with immunogen.

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) method was developed to obtain pure erythro[2S3S, 2R3R]- and threo[2S3R, 2R3S]-beta-methylphenylalanine. These amino acids were incorporated into an enkephalin, H-Tyr-D-Ala-Gly-beta-MePhe-Val-Val-Gly-NH2, and into a deltorphin C, H-Tyr-D-Ala-beta-MePhe-Asp-Val-Val-Gly-NH2, analogue, which yielded four diastereoisomers of the peptides. The diastereoisomers were separated on different columns and with different eluent systems.
