EnglishA new class of δ opioid antagonists was recently discovered in which the sequence Tyr-Tic was used as a message domain. The substitution of Tyr1 by Dmt enhanced the δ selectivity and antagonist activity. The excellent properties of these ligands stimulated us to prepare the corresponding tritiated derivatives. Peptides containing Tic at position 2 undergo spontaneous diketopiperazine formation in some solvents, with a reduction in opioid activity. To avoid this side-reaction we synthesised the N,N-dimethylated analogue (N,N(Me)2-Dmt-Tic-OH), which was found to be stable. On the basis of this result, we prepared diiodinated analogues of H-Dmt-Tic-OH and N,N(Me)2-Dmt-Tic-OH to undergo catalytic dehalotritiation. Products of high specific radioactivity were obtained: 44.67 Ci/mmol for [3H]Dmt-Tic-OH and 59.88 Ci/mmol for [3H]N,N(Me)2-Dmt-Tic-OH.

| Abstract: | A new class of δ opioid antagonists was recently discovered in which the sequence Tyr-Tic was used as a message domain. The substitution of Tyr1 by Dmt enhanced the δ selectivity and antagonist activity. The excellent properties of these ligands stimulated us to prepare the corresponding tritiated derivatives. Peptides containing Tic at position 2 undergo spontaneous diketopiperazine formation in some solvents, with a reduction in opioid activity. To avoid this side-reaction we synthesised the N,N-dimethylated analogue (N,N(Me)2-Dmt-Tic-OH), which was found to be stable. On the basis of this result, we prepared diiodinated analogues of H-Dmt-Tic-OH and N,N(Me)2-Dmt-Tic-OH to undergo catalytic dehalotritiation. Products of high specific radioactivity were obtained: 44.67 Ci/mmol for [3H]Dmt-Tic-OH and 59.88 Ci/mmol for [3H]N,N(Me)2-Dmt-Tic-OH. |
