Endothelin Antagonistic Cyclic Pentapeptides

The present invention relates to novel compounds having antagonism against a physiologically highly active endogenous peptide, endothelin, processes for their preparation and their use as a drug.

The compounds of the present invention have antagonism against endothelin, and thereby providing a new therapeutic potential, particularly for the treatment of hypertension, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, acute renal failure, cerebral infarction, cerebral vasospasm, asthma, endotoxin shock, endotoxin-induced multiple organ failure or disseminated intravascular coagulation, and/or cyclosporin-induced renal failure or hypertension.

Endothelin is a polypeptide composed of 21 amino acids, and it is produced by vascular endothelial cells of human or pig. It is known that endothelin has a potent vasoconstrictor effect and a sustained and potent pressor action. It is also known that such a vasoconstriction is caused by binding of endothelin to its receptors on the vascular smooth muscles (Nature, 332, 411-415 (1988), FEBS Letters, 231, 440-444 (1988) and Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 154, 868-875 (1988)).

As reported, the endothelin levels are clearly elevated in the blood of patients with essential hypertension or acute myocardial infarction, or in the washing fluids of the respiratory tract of patients with asthmaticus as compared with normal levels (Japan. J. Hypertension, 12, 79 (1989) and The Lancet, 23, 747-748 (1989)).

Further, an increased sensitivity of the cerebral blood vessel to endothelin in an experimental model of cerebral vasospasm (Japan. Soc. Cereb. Blood Flow & Metabol., 1, 73 (1989)) and an improved renal function by the endothelin antibody in an acute renal failure model have been reported (J. Clin. Invest., 83, 1762-1767 (1989)). Therefore, endothelin is assumed to be one of mediators causing acute renal failure or cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Further, endothelin is secreted not only by endothelial cells but also by tracheal epithelial cells or from kidney cells (FEBS Letters, 255 129-132 (1989), and FEBS Letters, 249, 42-46 (1989)).

Endothelin was also found to control the release of physiologically active substances such as renin, atrialnatriuretic peptide, endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF), thromboxane A.sub.2, prostacyclin, noradrenaline, angiotensin II and substance P (Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 157, 1164-1168 (1988); Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 155, 167-172 (1989); Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85, 9797-9800 (1989); J. Cardiovasc. Pharmacol., 13, S89-S92 (1989); Japan. J. Hypertension, 12, 76 (1989) and Neuroscience Letters, 102, 179-184 (1989)). Further, endothelin causes contraction of the smooth muscle of gastrointestinal tract and the uterine smooth muscle (FEBS Letters, 247, 337-340 (1989); Eur. J. Pharmacol., 154, 227-228 (1988); and Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 159, 317-323 (1989)).

Further, endothelin was found to promote proliferation of rat vascular smooth muscle cells, suggesting a possible relevance to the arterial hypertrophy (Atherosclerosis, 78, 225-228 (1989)). Furthermore, since the endothelin receptors are present in a high concentration not only in the peripheral tissues but also in the central nervous system, and the cerebral administration of endothelin induces a behavioral change in animals, endothelin is likely to play an important role for controlling nerval functions (Neuroscience Letters, 97, 276-279 (1989)).

On the other hand, endotoxin is one of potential candidates to promote the release of endothelin. Remarkable elevation of the endothelin levels in the blood or in the culture supernatant of endothelial cells was observed when endotoxin was exogenously administered to animals or added to the culture endothelial cells, respectively. These findings suggest that endothelin is one of important mediators for endotoxin-induced diseases (Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun., 161, 1220-1227 (1989); and Acta Physiol. Scand., 137, 317-318 (1989)).

Further, cyclosporin, when added to the renal cell culture (LLC-PKl cells), remarkably increased endothelin secretion (Eur. J. Pharmacol., 180, 191-192 (1990)). Further, when cyclosporin was administered to rats, a decrease in the glomerular filtration rate and an increase in the blood pressure were observed, in association with a remarkable increase in the circulating endoehtlin level. This cyclosporin-induced renal failure can be suppressed by the administration of endothelin antibody (Kidney Int., 37, 1487-1491 (1990)). Thus, it is assumed that endothelin is significantly involved in the pathogenesis of the cyclosporin-induced diseases.

Accordingly, substances which specifically inhibit the binding of endothelin to its receptor are believed to antagonize the above-mentioned various physiological activities of endothelin and thereby being useful as a medicine in a wide range of fields. However, such an endothelin antagonist has never been discovered yet.

Endothelin is an endogenous substance which directly or indirectly (by controlling liberation of various endogenous substances) induces sustained contraction of vascular or non-vascular smooth muscles, and its excess production or excess secretion is believed to be one of pathogeneses for hypertension, bronchial asthma, acute renal failure, myocardinal infarction, angina pectoris, cerebral vasospasm and cerebral infarction. Further, it is suggested that endothelin serves as an important mediator involved in diseases such as endotoxin shock, endotoxin-induced multiple organ failure or disseminated intravascular coagulation, and/or cyclosporin-induced renal failure or hypertension. Accordingly, the objective of the present invention is to provide a novel therapeutics for the treatment of the above-mentioned various diseases by an invention of an endothelin antagonist.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have synthesized various cyclic pentapeptides and have investigated their endothelin antagonistic activities, and as a result have found that novel cyclic pentapeptides represented by the following formula (I) have strong endothelin antagonistic activities. The present invention has been accomplished on the basis of this discovery.

Thus, the present invention provides a cyclic pentapeptide of the formula:

The present invention also provides a process for producing a cyclic pentapeptide of the above formula (I), which comprises cyclizing a linear pentapeptide of the formula (II) or its salt: ##STR1## wherein Y is a divalent group capable of forming a linear pentapeptide residue having an amino acid sequence corresponding to the cyclic pentapeptide of the formula (I), together with a group of the formula --NR (wherein R is a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl or C.sub.3 -C.sub.7 cycloalkyl group which may have an optional group selected from the group consisting of an imidazolyl group, a carboxyl group, a sulfo group and a hydroxyl group, or a group forming Pro, Hyp, Pip or Thz at the N-terminal as bonded to a part of Y) and a group of the formula --CO, wherein sidechain functional groups of the amino acids may optionally be protected, and Q is a leaving group, to obtain a cyclic pentapeptide wherein sidechain functional groups of the amino acids may be protected, subjecting, if necessary, this cyclic pentapeptide to at least one reaction selected from the group consisting of 1) removal of the sidechain protective groups, 2) formylation, alkoxycarbonylation or alkoxycarbonylalkylation at the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan, 3) conversion of the alkoxycarbonyl group in the substituent at the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan to a carboxyl group or a carbamoyl group, 4) formylation of the sidechain amino group of lysine or ornithine, and 5) oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide or methionine sulfone, and furthermore optionally conducting the conversion to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt.

Now, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the preferred embodiments.

Now, the meanings of various abbreviations used in this specification will be given. The abbreviations relating to amino acids and their protective groups are in accordance with the recommendation by IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (Biochemistry, 11, 1726 (1972)) and common usage.

Now, the process for producing the novel cyclic pentapeptide of the present invention will be described.

The cyclic pentapeptide of the present invention is prepared by cyclizing the corresponding linear pentapeptide wherein the sidechain functional groups of the amino acids may be protected as the case requires, and then, if necessary, conducting at least one reaction selected from the group consisting of 1) removal of the sidechain protective groups, 2) formylation, alkoxycarbonylation or alkoxycarbonylalkylation of the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan, 3) conversion of the alkoxycarbonyl group in the substituent at the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan to a carboxyl group or a carbamoyl group, 4) formylation of the sidechain amino group of lysine or ornithine, and 5) oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide or methionine sulfone, and further converting the product to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, if necessary.

The linear pentapeptide can be prepared by a method wherein an amino acid is condensed one by one, by a method wherein condensation products of plural amino acids are condensed with each other, or by a combination of such methods. Such condensation can be conducted in a liquid phase or in a solid phase by known methods such as an azide method, a mixed acid anhydride method, a DCC method and an active ester method (disclosed, for example, by M. Bodansky and M. A. Ondetti in Peptide Synthesis, Interscience, New York, 1966; by F. M. Finn and K. Hofmann in The Proteins, Vol. 2, ed. by H. Nenrath and R. L. Hill, Academic Press Inc., New York, 1976; by Nobuo Izumiya et al. in Peptide Synthesis, Maruzen, 1975).

The preparation of the compound of the present invention by a solid phase method can be conducted in the following manner. The linear pentapeptide can be obtained by successive condensations on an insoluble carrier such as a chloromethyl resin (Biochemistry, 3, 1385 (1964)), an oxymethyl resin (Chem. Ind. (London), 1966, 1597), a p-alkoxybenzyl alcohol resin (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 95, 1328 (1973)) or a functionalized polyamide resin (Bioorganic Chemistry, 8, 351-370 (1979)). Firstly, an .alpha.-amino group of the amino acid selected for the C-terminus in the linear pentapeptide, is protected. If a reactive functional group is present in the sidechain, such a sidechain functional group is also protected. Then, it is bonded as a carboxylic acid ester to the insoluble carrier in accordance with a known method. Then, the .alpha.-amino protective group is removed, and then the next amino acid derivative (the .alpha.-amino group and, if necessary, the sidechain functional group are protected) is condensed by simultaneously adding a condensing reagent such as DCC or DIPC, if necessary together with an additive such as HOBT.H.sub.2 O. This amino acid derivative may be used as a carboxyl-activated amino acid such as a pentafluorophenyl ester or an acid azide. Such deprotection and condensation are repeated to afford a desired linear pentapeptide. The protective group of an amino group is selected usually from those well known in the art, for example from urethane type protective groups such as a Z group, a Boc group, a Fmoc group, a p-methoxybenzyloxycarbonyl group and a p-nitrobenzyloxycarbonyl group. For the protection of an .alpha.-amino group, it is preferred to use a Fmoc group or a Boc group. The Fmoc group can be readily deprotected after the condensation with relatively mild base such as a 20% solution of piperidine in DMF. On the other hand, the Boc group can be readily deprotected with relatively mild acid such as TFA. When the Fmoc group is used for the protection of an .alpha.-amino group, the sidechain carboxyl group of e.g. aspartic acid or glutamic acid may be protected as a tert-butyl ester or a trityl ester, the hydroxyl group of e.g. tyrosine, serine or threonine may be protected as a tert-butyl ether, the sidechain amino group of e.g. lysine or ornithine and the imidazolyl group of histidine may be protected by a Boc group, the mercapto group of cysteine may be protected by a trityl group, and the guanidino group of arginine may be protected by a pentamethylchromansulfonyl group, so that these protective groups are stable under the conditions for the removal of the Fmoc group, and after the cyclization of the linear pentapeptide, all such protective groups can be simultaneously deprotected with mild acid such as TFA. On the other hand, when the Boc group is used for the protection of the .alpha.-amino group, the sidechain carboxyl group of e.g. aspartic acid or glutamic acid may be protected as a benzyl ester, the hydroxyl group of e.g. tyrosine, serine or threonine may be protected as a benzyl ether, and the sidechain amino group of e.g. lysine or ornithine and the imidazolyl group of histidine may be protected by a Z group, so that these protective groups are stable under the conditions for removing the Boc group, and after the cyclization of the linear pentapeptide, all such protective groups can be simultaneously removed by, for example, catalytic hydrogenation, treatment with hydrogen fluoride or treatment with trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonatethioanisole-TFA (Chem. Pharm. Bull., 35, 3447-52 (1987)).

Cleavage of the linear pentapeptide from the resin after the removal of the N-terminal protective group, can be conducted by various methods well known to those skilled in the art. For example, cleavage of the peptide from the resin with hydrazine affords the corresponding hydrazide. The hydrazide can be cyclized via an azide to afford the desired cyclic pentapeptide. The hydrazide is converted to the corresponding azide by treatment with a reagent which supplies nitrous acid in site. As a reagent suitable for this purpose, there may be mentioned a lower alkyl ester of nitrous acid (such as tert-butyl nitrite or isoamyl nitrite) or an alkali metal salt of nitrous acid (such as sodium nitrite or potassium nitrite) in the presence of strong acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid. This reaction can be conducted at ca. -40.degree. C. to 20.degree. C. in water and/or non-aqueous solvent such as DMF, THF or 1,4-dioxane. On the other hand, when a solid phase synthesis is conducted by use of a p-alkoxybenzyl alcohol resin as an insoluble carrier, it is possible to obtain a linear peptide having a carboxyl group as the C-terminus (the sidechain functional groups may be protected as the case requires) by cleavege the peptide with mild acid such as TFA. Such a linear pentapeptide can be cyclized into a cyclic pentapeptide by treatment with a condensing reagent such as DCC (or EDCI HCl)-HOBT.H.sub.2 O or diphenylphosphoryl azide in DMF, THF, 1,4-dioxane, acetonitrile, dichloromethane or chloroform at ca. -40.degree. C. to 20.degree. C. Such cyclization is conducted preferably under high dilution conditions, since the intermolecular reaction is likely to take place in competition with the intramolecular reaction. When the cyclic pentapeptide thus obtained has protective groups in its sidechains, the protective groups can be removed by suitable methods. The cyclic pentapeptide thus obtained may be led to a salt of alkali metal or alkaline earth metal such as sodium, potassium or calcium, an addition salt with basic amino acid such as lysine or arginine, an acid addition salt with mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid, an acid addition salt with acidic amino acid such as aspartic acid or glutamic acid, or an acid addition salt with organic acid such as maleic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid or citric acid.

On the other hand, the linear pentapeptide may be also prepared in a liquid phase by known methods wherein an amino acid is condensed one by one, by a method wherein condensation products of plural amino acids are condensed with each other, or by a combination of such methods.

The protective groups for the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group, the C-terminal .alpha.-carboxyl group and the reactive functional groups of the sidechains of the linear pentapeptide should be selected according to the cyclization method of the linear pentapeptide.

For example, in the case of an azide method wherein the linear pentapeptide is led to a hydrazide and then cyclized via an azide, it is preferred to protect the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group with a Z group, the C-terminal .alpha.-carboxyl group as an ester such as a methyl ester, an ethyl ester or a benzyl ester and the sidechain reactive functional groups such as the carboxyl group of e.g. aspartic acid or gultamic acid as a tert-butyl ester or a trityl ester, the hydroxyl group of e.g. tyrosine, serine or threonine as a tert-butyl ether, the amino group of e.g. lysine or ornithine with a Boc group, the imidazolyl group of histidine or the mercapto group of cysteine with a trityl group, and the guanidino group of arginine with a pentamethylchromansulfonyl group. Namely, the full-protected linear pentapeptide obtained after the peptide-condensation is allowed to react with hydrazine to afford the corresponding hydrazide, whose N-terminal Z group is successively removed by catalytic hydrogenation. Under these reaction conditions are intact the protective groups of the sidechain functional groups. Then, after the cyclization reaction, all such sidechain protective groups can be deprotected with mild acid such as TFA. In the case where the peptide has no reactive functional groups at its sidechains, it is also possible to select a Boc group as the protective group for the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group in the azide method.

The N-terminal deprotected linear pentapeptide hydrazide obtained by the liquid phase method may be subjected to cyclization via an azide in the same manner as the hydrazide obtained by the solid phase method, to afford a cyclic pentapeptide.

In the case where after the removal of the protective group for the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group and the C-terminal .alpha.-carboxyl group, the linear pentapeptide is cyclized by treatment with condensing reagents such as DCC (or EDCI.HCl)-HOBT.H.sub.2 O or diphenylphosphorylazide, it is preferred to protect the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group with a o Boc group, the C-terminal .alpha.-carboxyl group as a tert-butyl ester or a phenacyl ester, and the sidechain reactive functional groups such as the carboxyl group of e.g. aspartic acid or gultamic acid as a benzyl ester, the hydroxyl group of e.g. tyrosine, serine or threonine as a benzyl ether, and the amino group of e.g. lysine or ornithine, the imidazolyl group of histidine and the indolyl group of tryptophan with a Z group. Namely, in the case where the C-terminus of the protected linear pentapeptide obtained after the condensation is a tert-butyl ester, the Boc group of the N-terminus and the tert-butyl ester of the C-terminus can be simultaneously removed without removing the sidechain protective groups, by use of mild acid such as TFA. In the case where the C-terminus is a phenacyl ester, the Boc group of the N-terminus can be removed by use of mild acid such as TFA and the phenacyl ester of the C-terminus can be removed by use of zinc/acetic acid, without removing the sidechain protective groups. In each case, all such sidechain protective groups can be removed after cyclization by a method such as catalytic hydrogenation. Further, in the case where the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group is protected by a Z group and the C-terminal .alpha.-carboxyl group is protected as a benzyl ester or a phenacyl ester, the sidechain reactive functional groups may be protected in such manner that the carboxyl group of e.g. aspartic acid or glutamic acid be protected as a tert-butyl ester or a trityl ester, the hydroxyl group of e.g. tyrosine, serine or threonine be protected as a tert-butyl ether, and the amino group of e.g. lysine or ornithine and the imidazolyl group of histidine be protected with a Boc group, so that these sidechain protective groups will not be removed under the conditions for the removal of the protective groups for the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group and the C-terminal .alpha.-carboxyl group. After the cyclization, all such sidechain protective groups can be removed by use of mild acid such as TFA.

The linear pentapeptide thus obtained can be subjected to cyclization by treatment with condensing reagents in the same manner as the linear pentapeptide obtained by the solid phase method, to afford a cyclic pentapeptide. Otherwise, such a linear pentapeptide may be led to an active ester such as a p-nitrophenyl ester or an N-hydroxysuccinimide ester with the protected N-terminal .alpha.-amino group, and then the resulting active ester can be cyclized by the deprotection of the N-terminal .alpha.-amino group.

If necessary, the cyclic pentapeptide whose sidechain functional groups may be protected, or a salt thereof, may be further subjected to formylation, alkoxycarbonylation or alkoxycarbonylalkylation of the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan, conversion of the alkoxycarbonyl group in the substituent at the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan to a carboxyl group or a carbamoyl group, formylation of the sidechain amino group of lysine or ornithine, or oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide or methionine sulfone.

The formylation of the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan can be performed, for example, by treating a cyclic pentapeptide containing tryptophan with formic acid saturated by hydrogen chloride at -20.degree. C. to room temperature. The alkoxycarbonylation or the alkoxycarbonylalkylation at the 1-position of the indole ring can be conducted by treating the cyclic peptide with the corresponding acid halide, acid anhydride or alkyl halide by using phase transfer catalysts as described in the literature (Synthesis, 387 (1979)) or using DMAP as catalysts (J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun., 1699 (1984)). The conversion of the alkoxycarbonyl group in the substituent at the 1-position of the indole ring of tryptophan to a carboxyl group can be conducted by usual alkali or acid hydrolysis, and the conversion to a carbamoyl group can be conducted by amidation with the corresponding amine. Further, formylation of the sidechain amino group of lysine or ornithine can be conducted, for example, by treating a cyclic pentapeptide containing lysine or ornithine with 1 to 10 equivalents of formic pivalic anhydride at 0.degree. C. to room temperature in solvent such as DMF or acetonitrile. On the other hand, the conversion of methionine to methionine sulfoxide or methionine sulfone can be conducted, for example, by treating a cyclic pentapeptide containing methionine (provided that when amino acid residues having sidechain functional groups susceptible to oxidation other than the methionine are contained, such sidechain functional groups are preferably protected by suitable protective groups) with hydrogen peroxide or peroxy acid such as peracetic acid at 0.degree. C. to 80.degree. C. in solvent such as acetic acid. By properly controlling the amount of oxidizing reagent, the reaction temperature and the reaction time, it is possible to obtain selectively either methionine sulfoxide or methionine sulfone. Further, methionine sulfone can be obtained by further treating methionine sulfoxide under the above-mentioned reaction conditions.

The cyclic pentapeptide thus obtained may be subjected, if necessary, to removal of protective groups, and may be subjected to formation of a salt or exchange of a salt, as the case requires, to afford a desired cyclic pentapeptide of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

Now, the endothelin antagonistic properties of the cyclic pentapeptides of the present invention will be described.

Fmoc-Leu-resin(0.093 mmol/g, 1.0 g) which was prepared from ULTROSYN B(Pharmacia LKB Biotechnology) and Fmoc-Leu by a symmetrical acid anhydride method, was previously swelled in DMF, and packed in a reaction column of a BIOLYNX 4175 peptide synthesizer(Pharmacia LKB Biotechnology) and a solid phase peptide synthesis was performed manually by the standard protocol; 20% piperidine/DMF was pumped through the reaction column for 10 min(flow rate: 3.5 ml/min) to deprotect Fmoc group. Then DMF was pumped for 10 min(3.5 ml/min) to remove excess base. Each 2.5 equivalents of Fmoc-DVal-OPfp and HOBT.H.sub.2 O was dissolved in DMF(1 ml). The solution was drawn into the reaction system and recirculated for 1 h(3.5 ml/min) to achieve acylation of the amino groups present on the resin. DMF was pumped for 5 min (3.5 ml/min) to wash excess reagents out, to give Fmoc-DVal-Leu-resin. In a similar manner, Fmoc-Lys(Boc)-OPfp, Fmoc-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu) and Fmoc-DTrp-OPfp were successively coupled with the corresponding resin bound peptide. In the case of the coupling reaction of DAsp, were used each 5 equivalents of Fmoc-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu) and HOBT.H.sub.2 O, and 4 equivalents of DIPC. Completion of each acylation reaction was judged by the Kaiser test [Anal. Biochem., 34, 595(1970)]. If the acylation reaction was imcomplete, additional recirculation was performed until the Kaiser test turned negative. Finally the Fmoc group of the resin bound pentapeptide was deprotected in a reaction column by pumping 20% piperidine/DMF for 10 min(3.5 ml/min). The resin was unpacked from a reaction column, washed on a glass filter successively with DMF, tert-amyl alcohol, acetic acid, tert-amyl alcohol, DMF and ether, and dried in vacuo to give DTrp-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu)-Lys(Boc)-DVal-Leu-resin (1.06 g). 10% Hydradine monohydrate/1,4-dioxane/methanol(v/v, 9/1, 3.0 ml) was added to the resin and the mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 2 h with occasional shaking. The resin was filtered out and washed several times with each small amount of 1,4-dioxane/methanol(9/1). The combined filtrate and washings were neutralized with dry ice and concentrated in vacuo. Water(10 ml) was added to the residue to precipitate a solid, which was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo to give DTrp-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu)-Lys(Boc) -DVal-Leu-NHNH,(65.3 mg) as a colorless powder.

The hydrazide(64.2 mg) prepared above was cyclized in the same manner described in Example 3 to give a DMF solution of the protected cyclic pentapeptide. The DMF solution was concentrated in vacuo. Water(10 ml) was added to the residue to precipitate a solid, which was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo to give cyclo (-DTrp-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu)-Lys(Boc)-DVal-Leu-)(58.9 mg) as a pale yellow powder.

The protected cyclic pentapeptide(55.1 mg) was dissolved in TFA/EDT(v/v, 95/5, 5.5 ml). The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 30min and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with methanol(2 ml)/ether(30 ml) to give the title compound(48.1 mg) as an off-white powder.

Fmoc-Nle-resin(200 mg, 0.476 mmol/g) which was prepared from p-alkoxybenzyl alcohol resin(Kokusan Chemical Works) and Fmoc-Nle by a DCC-DMAP method, was packed in a polypropylene column(10 mm.PHI..times.60 mm) and a solid-phase synthesis was performed as follows; 20% piperidine/DMF (3 ml) was added to the column and the column was vibrated for 5 min, then DMF was removed from the column. This procedure was repeated 3 times to remove Fmoc group. The resin in the column was washed with each 3 ml of DMF by vibrating the column for 1 min(6 times). A solution of each 2.5 equivalents of Fmoc-DVal, HOBT. H.sub.2 O and DIPC in DMF(1.0 ml) was added into the column and the acylation reaction was performed by vibrating the column at room temperature for 2 h. Completion of the reaction was judged by the Kaiser test. Excess reagents were removed and the resin was washed with DMF (each 3 ml, 1 min.times.4) to give Fmoc-DVal-Nle-resin. In the same manner, Fmoc-Pro, Fmoc-DCys(O.sub.3 Bu.sub.4 N) and Fmoc-DTrp were successively coupled with the corresponding resin bound peptide to give Fmoc-DTrp-DCys(O.sub.3 Bu.sub.4 N)-Pro-DVal-Nle-resin. After the deprotection of the Fmoc group with 20% piperidine/DMF (each 3 ml, 5 min.times.3), the resin was successively washed with DMF(3 ml.times.6) and methanol(3 ml.times.3), and dried in vacuo to give DTrp-DCys(O.sub.3 Bu.sub.4 N)-Pro-DVal-Nle-resin, which was soaked in TFA/phenol(95/5, 3 ml) and vibrated at room temperature for 20 min. The resin was filtered out and washed with TFA(3 ml.times.2). The combined filtrate and washings were concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with hexane/ether to give a linear pentapeptide(27 mg) as a pale yellow powder.

A solution of the linear pentapeptide prepared above(26 mg) in DMF(2 ml) was added dropwise to a solution of EDCI.HCl(8 mg) and HOBT.H.sub.2 O(7 mg) in DMF(2 ml) under ice cooling over a period of 1 h. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by reverse-phase chromatography on a SEP-PAK C.sub.18 cartridge(Waters) with methanol/water(10/1) for elution to give a cyclic pentapeptide tetrabutyl ammonium salt(19 mg). The salt was dissolved in 10% aq. methanol. By passing the aq. methanol solution through a column of ion exchange resin (AMBERLITE IR-120B, Na.sup.+ -form), the ammonium salt was converted into the corresponding sodium salt. After concentration of the solution, the residue was purified by thin layer chromatography on silica gel(Analytichem International, Empore sheet) with chloroform/methanol/acetic acid(5/1/1) for development to give the title compound(8.6 mg) as a pale yellow powder.

Thz-DVal-Leu-resin which was prepared from Fmoc-Leu-resin in the same manner described in Example 4, was unpacked from a reaction column and allowed to react with 2.5 equivalents of the symmetrical acid anhydride of Fmoc-nAsp(O.sup.t Bu)(prepared previously from Fmoc-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu) and DCC) and DMAP(10 mg) in DMF at room temperature for 3 h with occasional shaking. After removal of excess reagents, the resin was washed successively with DMF, tert-amyl alcohol, acetic acid, tert-amyl alcohol and DMF, and repacked in a reaction column. The further solid-phase peptide synthesis was performed by the standard protocol described in Example 4. The resulting DTrp-DAsp(O.sup.t Bu)-Thz-DVal-Leu-resin was treated in the same manner described in Example 4 to give the title compound.

DCys(O.sub.3 Bu.sub.4 N)-Pro-DThg-Leu-resin prepared in the same manner described in Example 5, was acylated with Boc-DTrp(CHO) by the standard protocol described in Example 5. The resulting resin was washed successively with DMF, methanol, and dichloromethane and dried in vacuo to give Boc-DTrp(CHO)-DCys(O.sub.3 Bu.sub.4 N)-Pro-nThg-Leu-resin. The resin was added to TFA/water(95/5, 20 ml) and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1.5 h and filtered. The collected resin was washed with TFA and the combined filtrate and washings were concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was precipitated with ether to give DTrp(CHO)-DCys(O.sub.3 Bu.sub.4 N)-Pro-DThg-Leu. A solution of the pentapeptide(28 mg) in DMF(1.4 ml) was added dropwise to a solution of DCC(9 mg), HOBT H.sub.2 O(7 mg) and N-methylmorpholine(1.6 .mu.l) in DMF(1.4 ml) under ice cooling over a period of 1 h. The reaction mixture was stirred under ice cooling for 1 h and at room temperature for 17 h. Acetic acid(10 .mu.l) was added to the reaction mixture. The resulting mixture was stirred and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was triturated with water to give colorless dicyclohexyl urea which was collected by filtration and thoroughly washed with water. The combined filtrate and washings were lyophilized to give a colorless solid which was purified by thin layer chromatography on silica gel (Analtichem International, Empore sheet) with butanol/acetic acid/water(8/1/1) for development to give an ammonium salt of the title compound. A water solution of the ammonium salt was passed through a column of ion exchange resin(AMBERLITE IR-120B, H.sup.+ -form) and lyophilized. The resulting solid(12.93 mg) was dissolved in water(0.6 ml) and the equimolar amount of NaHCO.sub.3 was added. The solution was directly purified by reverse-phase short column chromatography(Waters, SEP-PAK C.sub.18 cartridge) with water and methanol for elution. The combined methanolic layers were concentrated under reduced pressure to give the title compound(10.74 mg) as a colorless powder.

To a solution of Boc-DTrp-OBzl(1 g) in dichloromethane(8 ml) was added Bu.sub.4 NHSO.sub.4 (8.62 mg) and pulverized NaOH(253 mg) under ice cooling. To the resulting suspension was added dropwise a solution of methyl chloroformate(599 mg) in dichloromethane(6 ml) under ice cooling over a period of 30 min. The reaction mixture was stirred under ice cooling for 30 min and at room temperature for 12 h, diluted with dichloromethane, washed successively with water, 5% KHSO., saturated NaHCO.sub.3 and saturated NaCl, dried over MgSO.sub.4, and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give Boc-DTrp(COOCH.sub.3)-OBzl(1.42 g) as a colorless solid. The solid was hydrogenolized over a catalytic amount of 10% Pd/C in methanol under an atmosphere of hydrogen(under atmospheric pressure) to give Boc-DTrp(COOCH.sub.3).

DAsp(OBzl)-Pro-DVal-Leu-OPac prepared in Example 59 was acylated with Boc-DTrp(COOCH.sub.3) and the resulting pentapeptide was treated in the same manner described in Example 59 to give the title compound.

The cyclic pentapeptides have a potent antagonistic activity against endothelin which is an endogenous peptide with potent vasoconstrictor and other activities. Therefore, they are useful as drugs which exhibit antagonism against vascular and trachea smooth muscles contraction effects by endotheIin. Particularly, they are useful as drugs for treating human hypertension, asthma, acute renal failure, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, cerebral infarction or cerebral vasospasm. Further, they are useful also as drugs for treating endotoxin shock, or endotoxin-induced multiple organ failure or disseminated intravascular coagulation as well as cyclosporin-induced renal failure or hypertension.
