Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for supporting a starting compound onto a solid-phase synthesis resin in the production of peptide compounds by solid-phase synthesis, and to a method for producing peptide compounds using this method. [Background technology]
[0002] Peptides are molecules composed of many linked amino acids, and naturally occurring peptides (natural peptides) exhibit a variety of physiological activities. To obtain natural peptides as reference samples for research purposes, two methods are possible: isolation from nature and chemical synthesis. For obtaining samples on a gram scale, such as for experimental research, isolating naturally occurring substances in trace amounts is extremely inefficient. On the other hand, chemical synthesis is a more attractive method compared to isolation from nature, as it allows for the synthesis of the desired peptide by sequentially linking amino acids to achieve the desired sequence. However, amino acids may contain functional groups other than amino and carboxyl groups that can undergo unintended structural transformations through arbitrary chemical reactions, making the establishment of efficient synthesis methods for obtaining peptides with the desired sequence essential. Furthermore, when applying physiologically active peptides to pharmaceuticals, even more advanced chemical synthesis techniques are essential from the perspective of both the quantity and quality of compound supply. Among such chemical synthesis techniques, advances in solid-phase synthesis, in particular, are considered to have greatly contributed to the elucidation of the physiological activities of peptides (Non-Patent Literature 1).
[0003] In recent years, it has become known that non-natural peptides, particularly medium-sized molecules with molecular weights of around 500-2000, whose structures have been artificially designed, can effectively act on tough targets such as protein-protein interaction inhibitors. Furthermore, medium-sized molecules are attracting attention as a new modality that can act as modulators for target proteins that were previously considered unsuitable as drug targets. Research into artificially designing peptide structures to search for non-natural peptides with desired functions is actively being conducted (Non-Patent Literature 2).
[0004] With the aim of developing peptides as pharmaceuticals, it has been found that metabolic stability and membrane permeability can be improved by cyclizing peptides or by using non-natural amino acids as the amino acids contained in the peptides (Non-Patent Documents 3, 4).
[0005] Among cyclic peptides containing non-natural amino acids, cyclic peptides containing N-substituted amino acids in particular have become known to exhibit excellent metabolic stability and membrane permeability, as well as drug-like properties (Patent Document 1).
[0006] Macrocyclic peptides containing unnatural amino acids have also been suggested to be useful as inhibitors of protein-protein interactions (Non-Patent Document 5), and the conditions for cyclic peptides containing unnatural amino acids to be drug-like molecules have been clarified (Patent Documents 2 and 3).
[0007] Peptide synthesis is (i) A step to obtain an activated ester by activating the carboxyl group of an amino acid that has a protecting group on its amino group and an unprotected carboxyl group with a condensing agent or the like (activation step), (ii) A step of reacting the amino acid with a peptide whose N-terminus is unprotected to obtain a peptide in which the amino acid has been extended (extension step), and (iii) A step of removing the protecting group from the N-terminus of the extended peptide (deprotection step), This is achieved by repeating the process to link multiple amino acids with amide bonds and extend them into the desired sequence. More specific methods for peptide synthesis include liquid-phase and solid-phase methods (Non-Patent Literature 5).
[0008] Of these, the solid-phase method uses a resin for solid-phase synthesis in which linker atomic groups are bonded to a polymer resin. The solid-phase method is (a) A step of supporting amino acid carboxyl groups protected by amino groups onto linker atomic groups contained in a solid-phase synthesis resin (supporting step), (b) A step of deprotecting the protecting group of the N-terminal amino group (deprotection step), (c) A step to activate the carboxyl group of the elongated amino acid (activation step), (d) A step of extending the amino acid (extension step), (e) A step of repeating steps (b) to (d) the required number of times until a peptide chain of the desired sequence is obtained, and (f) A step of cleaving the target peptide from the solid-phase synthesis resin (de-resinization step). This includes. In the extension process, N-terminally protected amino acids are commonly used, primarily those in which the N-terminal amino group is protected with an Fmoc group or a Boc group (Non-Patent Documents 6, 7).
[0009] Solid-phase synthesis resins are roughly classified by linker atomic groups, and solid-phase synthesis resins containing linker atomic groups including trityl groups and benzyl groups are widely used. Specific examples of such resins include CTC resin, Wang resin, SASRIN resin, or Rink Amide resin. These resins each have different linker atomic groups, and due to the differences in the linker atomic groups, the reaction conditions for the resin removal process are different. The resin removal process is mainly carried out under acidic conditions. However, CTC resin, which can be de-resinized with weak acid, contains a trityl group in the linker atomic group, and peptide residues are supported on the resin through this group. On the other hand, Wang resin, which requires strong acid for resin removal, contains a benzyl group in the linker atomic group, and peptide residues are supported on the resin through this group. Thus, depending on the chemical properties of the target peptide, the resin used for solid-phase synthesis can be selected (Non-Patent Document 8).
[0010] When producing a peptide containing an N-methyl amino acid in the sequence, due to the steric hindrance of the N-methyl group, the condensation reaction is slow, and problems such as a decrease in the yield of the target product due to racemization at the α-position of the amino acid residue have been issues. In particular, many problems have been reported, such as the amide bond between the N-methyl amino acid residue and the adjacent amino acid residue being prone to cleavage reaction under acidic conditions, and the desorption reaction of the amino acid residue due to diketopiperazine formation being likely to occur. It is widely recognized that the synthesis of peptides containing N-methyl amino acids is more difficult than the synthesis of peptides derived only from natural amino acids (Non-Patent Document 9).
[0011] It is known that aspartic acid derivatives can be supported on solid-phase synthesis resins (Patent Document 4). On the other hand, it is known that non-natural amino acids containing aspartic acid derivatives may decompose in a solution state (Non-Patent Document 10).
[0012] In addition, amino acids having a carboxyl group in the side chain, such as aspartic acid and glutamic acid, are known to be likely to cause an amide transfer reaction in which the carboxyl group in the side chain transfers to the nitrogen atom in the main chain amide bond in the peptide residue depending on the solvent used in the peptide production process (Non-Patent Documents 10 and 11).
[0013] When synthesizing a peptide that is unstable under acidic conditions in this way, CTC resin that enables a deprotection reaction with a weak acid is useful (Non-Patent Document 12).
[0014] On the other hand, in the solid-phase synthesis of peptides using CTC resin, since the peptide can be deprotected from the CTC resin under mild conditions, problems of premature cleavage (also called premature peptide release or premature acidolytic cleavage), in which the amino acid or peptide supported on the CTC resin is inadvertently released, have been reported (Non-Patent Document 13).
[0015] In addition, it is known that the binding site of CTC resin with non-natural amino acids is hydrolyzed in the presence of moisture, and a reaction under non-aqueous conditions is required in the process of loading non-natural amino acids onto CTC resin (Non-Patent Document 14).

[0018] The object of this invention is to provide a method for efficiently producing high-purity peptide compounds in high yield.
[0019] Solid-phase synthesis of peptides containing N-substituted amino acids that are unstable under acidic conditions is considered appropriate to be carried out using a resin that allows for the removal of peptides from the solid-phase synthesis resin under mild reaction conditions, such as CTC resin. The steps of supporting unnatural amino acids on the solid-phase synthesis resin, and extending the peptide chain by condensing unnatural amino acids onto the solid-phase synthesis resin on which peptides containing natural and / or unnatural amino acids are supported, are performed by contacting a solution containing unnatural amino acids with the solid-phase synthesis resin or the peptide linked thereto.
[0020] The preparation of non-natural amino acid solutions may involve not only simply dissolving the non-natural amino acids in a solvent, but also performing operations such as deprotection reactions on the non-natural amino acids before dissolving them in a solvent.
[0021] When preparing a solution by simply dissolving unnatural amino acids in a solvent, if the unnatural amino acids are hydrates or hygroscopic, water will be mixed into the amino acid solution. In this case, the linker atomic groups contained in the solid-phase synthesis resin undergo hydrolysis, causing the resin to decompose and reducing its ability to support amino acids.
[0022] Furthermore, when non-natural amino acids undergo functional group transformations such as deprotection reactions, decomposition can occur because the non-natural amino acids remain in solution during post-transformation processing, such as compound extraction, isolation, solvent removal, or azeotropic dehydration. For example, if the synthesis process involves leaving or heating the non-natural amino acids in solution, by-products may be generated, reducing the yield of the target product and complicating the purification process. For instance, in industrial manufacturing, when handling large quantities of non-natural amino acids with solvents, the non-natural amino acids remain in the solvent for longer periods during post-processing steps such as solvent extraction and during the concentration of the solution to obtain the product. Therefore, in large-scale synthesis, the decomposition of non-natural amino acids can become more pronounced depending on factors such as the storage time in solution, the concentration time, and the handling temperature. In particular, in industrial manufacturing, these operations are prolonged due to the large amounts of reagents and solvents involved, resulting in longer periods in which the non-natural amino acids remain in solution, leading to more pronounced decomposition reactions. Specifically, amino acids that have reactive functional groups in addition to the amino and carboxyl groups of the amino acid main chain, more specifically aspartic acid and glutamic acid with carboxyl groups in their side chains, serine and threonine with hydroxyl groups in their side chains, lysine, glutamine, and asparagine with free amino groups in their side chains, cysteine and methionine with nucleophilic sulfur atoms in their side chains, and tryptophan, tyrosine, and histidine with free NH or OH groups in their side chains, as well as their derivatives, can undergo unintended functional group transformations when stored in solution.
[0023] The present invention aims to provide a method for efficiently producing peptide compounds containing high-purity unnatural amino acid residues in high yield by suppressing the decrease in amino acid loading rate due to the decomposition of solid-phase synthesis resins and suppressing the decomposition of amino acids during the process of loading amino acids onto solid-phase synthesis resins, thereby efficiently loading amino acids onto solid-phase synthesis resins. [Means for solving the problem]
[0024] The inventors, in order to solve the above problems, have found that the decomposition of amino acids is suppressed when they are handled in a specific solvent. Specifically, they have identified a solvent to be used for swelling of the solid-phase synthesis resin and a solvent to be used for the subsequent loading reaction of amino acids onto the solid-phase synthesis resin. Furthermore, they have found a method for carrying out the reaction in which the functional group of an amino acid is converted to another functional group and then loaded onto the solid-phase synthesis resin without removing the solvent used during the functional group conversion. In addition, they have found a drying method for amino acid solutions that can suppress hydrolysis at the binding site between the linker atomic group contained in the solid-phase synthesis resin and the amino acid, and does not require a dehydration operation involving the removal of the solvent. As a result, the decomposition of amino acids can be suppressed and amino acids can be efficiently loaded onto the solid-phase synthesis resin, making it possible to obtain peptide compounds in high yield and high purity more efficiently than with conventional methods.

[0026] According to the present invention, which uses a specific solvent when swelling the solid-phase synthesis resin and when supporting amino acids on the solid-phase synthesis resin, amino acids can be supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin with a high support rate and high yield. Furthermore, since the amino acid solution used in the reaction to support amino acids on the resin can be prepared without concentration or heating, the time that the amino acids are stored in the solution can be shortened, the decomposition of amino acids can be suppressed, and amino acids can be supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin at a high rate.

Furthermore, since operations such as azeotropic dehydration and heat drying are not performed prior to the preparation of the amino acid solution, even in industrial-scale synthesis, amino acids are not stored in the solution for a long time, and amino acids can be efficiently supported on the resin. The present invention is applicable to the production of peptide compounds containing any type and number of amino acids, and can be a useful method for producing peptide compounds in high yield and high purity.

[0117] In this specification, the "cyclic portion" of a peptide compound means the ring portion formed by the linking of two or more amino acid residues. In this specification, the "linear portion" used to refer to a substructure of a cyclic peptide compound means a portion that is not included in the main chain structure of the cyclic portion and has at least one amide bond and / or ester bond on its chain.

Specifically, the reaction conversion rate can be calculated using the following formula, using the measurement conditions described in the examples. Reaction conversion rate (%) = {(Area of amino acids before the start of the loading reaction) - (Area of amino acids after loading is complete)} x 100 / Area of amino acids before the start of the loading reaction

[0130] In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for producing peptide compounds, salts thereof, or solvates thereof, comprising the step (Step 1) of contacting a solid-phase synthesis resin swollen in a solvent containing a first solvent with (i) a solution containing an amino acid and a second solvent, or (ii) a solution containing an amino acid, a second solvent, and a third solvent, to obtain an amino acid supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin. In this method, the first solvent and the third solvent are each independently selected from halogenated solvents. The second solvent is an ether solvent.
[0131] In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for producing amino acids supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin, comprising the step of contacting a solid-phase synthesis resin swollen in a solvent containing a first solvent with (i) a solution containing an amino acid and a second solvent, or (ii) a solution containing an amino acid, a second solvent, and a third solvent. In this method, the first solvent and the third solvent are each independently selected from halogenated solvents, and the second solvent is an ether solvent.
[0132] In solid-phase synthesis, to efficiently support amino acids on a solid-phase synthesis resin, it is common practice to swell the solid-phase synthesis resin with a solvent prior to the amino acid loading reaction. In the present invention, the solid-phase synthesis resin is swelled using a solvent containing a first solvent selected from halogenated solvents. Specifically, the first solvent can be DCM, DCE, chloroform, chlorobenzene, carbon tetrachloride, etc., with DCM being preferred among these. Furthermore, if the first solvent contains another solvent in addition to the halogenated solvent, any solvent, such as MeTHF, MTBE, CPME, THF, IPE, DME, diethyl ether, or dioxane, may be included in addition to the halogenated solvent. MeTHF, MTBE, and CPME are preferred solvents to be included in addition to the halogenated solvent. These solvents are preferably dehydrated solvents to suppress the decomposition of the solid-phase synthesis resin. The dehydrated solvent may be a commercially available dehydrated solvent that can be purchased from a commercial supplier, or a solvent that has been dehydrated in advance by any method. The swelling of the solid-phase synthesis resin can be carried out by adding a solvent containing the first solvent to a container such as a column containing the resin, and maintaining that state at any temperature, for example, room temperature, for any time, for example, 5 minutes to 24 hours, during which the container may be shaken. Once the swelling of the resin is complete, it is preferable to discharge the solvent from the container by filtration or the like.
[0133] In one embodiment, once the solid-phase synthesis resin has swollen sufficiently, amino acids can be supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin by contacting the solid-phase synthesis resin with a solution containing amino acids and a second solvent. The support of amino acids on the solid-phase synthesis resin is usually carried out by linking the carboxyl groups of the amino acids to the linker atomic groups contained in the resin. The second solvent is an ether-based solvent such as MeTHF, MTBE, CPME, THF, IPE, DME, diethyl ether, or dioxane, with MeTHF, MTBE, and CPME being preferred. Furthermore, it is preferable that the solution does not contain any solvents other than the second solvent. Contact of the solid-phase synthesis resin with the solution containing amino acids and the second solvent can be carried out, for example, by adding the solution containing amino acids and the second solvent to a container such as a column containing the resin, and maintaining the state at an arbitrary temperature, such as room temperature, for an arbitrary time, such as 10 minutes to 24 hours, during which the container may be shaken. The concentration of amino acids in the solution is not particularly limited, but a range of 0.01 mol / L to 2.0 mol / L is preferred. Furthermore, if an acid is generated by the support reaction between the linker group and the amino acids, a base such as DIPEA can be added to the solution to capture the acid.
[0134] In another embodiment, once the solid-phase synthesis resin has swollen sufficiently, the solid-phase synthesis resin can be contacted with a solution containing amino acids and a mixed solvent of a second solvent and a third solvent to support the amino acids on the solid-phase synthesis resin. The second solvent is an ether-based solvent such as MeTHF, MTBE, CPME, THF, IPE, DME, diethyl ether, or dioxane, of which MeTHF, MTBE, and CPME are preferred. The third solvent is a halogen-based solvent such as DCM, DCE, chloroform, chlorobenzene, or carbon tetrachloride, of which DCM is preferred. The mixing ratio of the second and third solvents is not particularly limited, but it is preferable that the volume ratio is in the range of 1:1 to 1:10, and specifically, examples include second solvent:third solvent = 1:1, 1:2, 1:5, 1:10, etc. Furthermore, preferred combinations of the second and third solvents include MeTHF and DCM, MTBE and DCM, CPME and DCM, MeTHF and DCE, THF and DCM, and IPE and DCM. Preferably, the solution does not contain any solvents other than the second and third solvents. Contact of the solid-phase synthesis resin with the solution containing the amino acid and the mixed solvent of the second and third solvents is performed, for example, by adding the solution containing the amino acid and the second or third solvent to a container such as a column containing the resin, then adding the third or second solvent, or by adding the solution containing the amino acid and the mixed solvent of the second and third solvents, and maintaining the state at any temperature, for example room temperature, for any time, for example, 10 minutes to 24 hours, during which the container may be shaken. The concentration of amino acid in the solution is not particularly limited, but a range of 0.01 mol / L to 2.0 mol / L is preferably exemplified. Furthermore, if an acid is produced by the support reaction between the linker group and the amino acid, a base such as DIPEA can be added to the solution to capture the acid.
[0135] The present invention, which uses a specific solvent for swelling of a solid-phase synthesis resin and subsequent loading of amino acids onto the resin, makes it possible to link amino acids to the resin with very high loading rates or reaction conversion rates, for example, 90% or more, 91% or more, 92% or more, 93% or more, 94% or more, 95% or more, 96% or more, 97% or more, 98% or more, 99% or more, or about 100%.
[0136] The "solid-phase synthesis resin" used in the present invention is not particularly limited as long as it can be used for the synthesis of peptide compounds by the solid-phase method. Specific examples of such solid-phase synthesis resins include those that can be removed under acidic conditions, such as CTC resin, Wang resin, SASRIN resin, trityl chloride resin (Trt resin), 4-methyltrityl chloride resin (Mtt resin), and 4-methoxytrityl chloride resin (Mmt). The resin can be appropriately selected according to the functional group of the amino acid used. For example, when using a carboxyl group (main chain carboxyl group, or side chain carboxyl group represented by Asp or Glu) or a hydroxyl group on an aromatic ring (phenolic hydroxyl group represented by Tyr) as the functional group of the amino acid, it is preferable to use trityl chloride resin (Trt resin) or 2-chlorotrityl chloride resin (CTC resin) as the resin. When using an aliphatic hydroxyl group (such as Ser or Thr, which are aliphatic alcoholic hydroxyl groups) as the functional group on the amino acid side, it is preferable to use trityl chloride resin (Trt resin), 2-chlorotrityl chloride resin (CTC resin), or 4-methyltrityl chloride resin (Mtt resin) as the resin. In this specification, resin may be referred to as "resin."
[0137] The type of polymer constituting the resin is not particularly limited. In the case of a resin composed of polystyrene, either 100-200 mesh or 200-400 mesh may be used. The crosslinking ratio is also not particularly limited, but 1% DVB (divinylbenzene) crosslinking is preferred. Examples of polymers constituting the resin include TentaGel® or ChemMatrix®.
[0138] In one embodiment, the amino acid supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin in the present invention may be either a natural or unnatural amino acid. When the amino acid supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin is an unnatural amino acid, it is preferable that the amino acid is an unnatural N-substituted amino acid. Unnatural amino acids can include aminocarbonyl groups such as monoC1-C6 alkylaminocarbonyl, diC1-C6 alkylaminocarbonyl, and 4- to 8-membered cyclic aminocarbonyl. Examples of such aminocarbonyl groups include dimethylaminocarbonyl, 1-azetidinylcarbonyl, 1-pyrrolidinylcarbonyl, 1-piperidinylcarbonyl, 1-piperazinylcarbonyl, 4-morpholinylcarbonyl, 3-oxazolidinylcarbonyl, 1,1-dioxidethiomorpholinyl-4-ylcarbonyl, and 3-oxa-8-azabicyclo[3.2.1]octane-8-ylcarbonyl, and it is preferable that these groups are present in the side chain. Furthermore, it is preferable that the amino acids supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin have their amino groups protected by a protecting group.
[0139] Amino acids are supported on solid-phase synthesis resins via carboxyl groups bonded to the α, β, or γ carbon atoms of the amino group. An example of an amino acid supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin via a carboxyl group bonded to the β carbon atom of the amino group is aspartic acid or its derivatives. Specifically, the case where aspartic acid is supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin via a carboxyl group present in its side chain corresponds to the case where it is supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin via a carboxyl group bonded to the β carbon atom of the amino group. Similarly, an example of an amino acid supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin via a carboxyl group bonded to the γ carbon atom of the amino group is glutamic acid or its derivatives. Specifically, the case where glutamic acid is supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin via a carboxyl group present in its side chain corresponds to the case where it is supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin via a carboxyl group bonded to the γ carbon atom of the amino group. Other natural amino acid residues and their N-substituted amino acid residues are typically supported on solid-phase synthesis resins via a carboxyl group bonded to the α-carbon atom of the amino group.
[0140] In one embodiment, the unnatural amino acid supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin by a carboxyl group bonded to the carbon atom at the β position of the amino group is aminocarbonylated aspartic acid, 2-aminobutanoic acid, or N-substituted derivatives thereof. Here, aminocarbonylated aspartic acid is obtained by aminocarbonylating (-CONRR') the free carboxyl (-COOH) group bonded to the carbon atom at the α position of the amino group of aspartic acid. Examples of aminocarbonylated aspartic acid include dialkylaminocarbonylated aspartic acid such as dimethylaminocarbonyl, in other words aspartic acid in which R and R' are independently alkyl groups, aspartic acid aminocarbonylated with the N atom of a saturated heterocycle containing an N atom (e.g., azetidine ring, morpholine ring, pyrrolidine ring, piperidine ring, azepane ring, etc.), in other words aspartic acid in which R and R' together with the N atom to which they are bonded to form a saturated heterocycle, and these can also be N-substituted compounds such as N-methyl and N-ethyl alkyl compounds.
[0141] In one embodiment, the unnatural amino acid supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin by a carboxyl group bonded to the carbon atom at the γ position of the amino group is aminocarbonylated glutamic acid or an N-substituted derivative thereof. Here, aminocarbonylated glutamic acid is obtained by aminocarbonylating (-CONRR') the free carboxyl (-COOH) group of glutamic acid. Specifically, as aminocarbonylated glutamic acid, dialkylaminocarbonylated glutamic acid such as dimethylaminocarbonyl, in other words, where R and R' are independently alkyl groups. Glutamic acid , glutamic acid that is aminocarbonylated with the N atom of a saturated heterocycle containing an N atom (e.g., azetidine ring, morpholine ring, pyrrolidine ring, piperidine ring, azepane ring, etc.), in other words, the R and R' atoms together with the N atom to which they are bonded to form a saturated heterocycle. Glutamic acid These include N-substituted compounds such as N-methyl and N-ethyl derivatives, as well as N-alkyl derivatives.
[0142] In one embodiment, it is preferable that the first solvent used for swelling the solid-phase synthesis resin and the third solvent used for supporting amino acids onto the resin are of the same type. That is, when a mixed solvent of the second and third solvents is used in the reaction to support amino acids onto the solid-phase synthesis resin, the third solvent can be of the same type as the solvent used for swelling the solid-phase synthesis resin. When the first and third solvents are of the same type, DCM is preferred as the solvent.
[0143] In one embodiment, the solution containing the amino acid and the second solvent may be a solution obtained by an extraction operation involving the use of the second solvent, followed by an optional dehydration operation, which is carried out after the deprotection reaction of the protecting group of the carboxyl group of the amino acid prior to step 1.
[0144] In another embodiment, the solution comprising an amino acid, a second solvent, and a third solvent may be a solution obtained by adding a third solvent to a solution obtained by an extraction operation involving the use of a second solvent, followed by an optional dehydration operation, which is carried out after the deprotection reaction of the carboxyl group protecting the amino acid prior to step 1.
[0145] When amino acids to be supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin are provided as amino acids in which the carboxyl group or both the amino group and the carboxyl group are protected by protecting groups, it is necessary to deprotect the carboxyl group prior to the support reaction on the resin in preparation for linking with the linker atomic group of the resin. In the present invention, by subjecting the product amino acid to an extraction operation including the use of a second solvent after the deprotection reaction, a "solution containing amino acids and a second solvent" to be used in the support reaction on the solid-phase synthesis resin can be obtained without isolating or purifying the amino acids. Alternatively, by adding a third solvent to the "solution containing amino acids and a second solvent" obtained in this way, a "solution containing amino acids, a second solvent, and a third solvent" to be used in the support reaction on the solid-phase synthesis resin can be obtained. A dehydration operation may be performed after the extraction operation, and it is preferable to use a drying agent such as Na2SO4, MgSO4, or CaCl2. When deprotected amino acids are isolated and purified, operations such as solvent removal or azeotropic dehydration are required, and as a result the amino acids are left in solution for a long time, decomposition of the amino acids is likely to occur. This tendency is even more pronounced in large-scale synthesis where the amount of solvent and reagents increases. By using the above method of the present invention, which does not involve the isolation and purification of deprotected amino acids, such problems can be avoided, and the subsequent support reaction can be effectively carried out. For the removal of the protecting group of the carboxyl group, known methods, such as the method described in "Greene's, "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis" (5th edition, John Wiley & Sons 2014)," can be used. Furthermore, before and after the extraction operation, which involves the use of a second solvent after the deprotection reaction, any operations commonly used in the art, such as reaction termination, back extraction to transfer the target product to an aqueous layer, or washing of the organic layer and aqueous layer, may be included. When back extraction is performed, a solution containing amino acids and a second solvent can be obtained by adding an acid (e.g., phosphoric acid) and a second solvent to the aqueous layer from which the organic layer has been removed after back extraction and extracting the product.
[0146] When the carboxyl group of an amino acid is protected by a protecting group, it is preferable that the protecting group be removable by acid. Specific examples of such protecting groups include t-Bu, trityl, methoxytrityl, or cumyl. Acids that can remove such protecting groups can be those described under acidic conditions in "Greene's, 'Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis' (5th edition, John Wiley & Sons 2014)" or those described in WO2020 / 111238.
[0147] In one embodiment, the present invention further comprises the step of extending one or more arbitrary amino acids onto an amino acid supported on a solid-phase synthesis resin. This step makes it possible to obtain a peptide compound having a desired amino acid sequence. Methods known in the art can be used for this step, such as the methods described in WO2013 / 100132, WO2018 / 225851, WO2018 / 225864, or the methods described in the Solid-Phase Synthesis Handbook published by Merck KGaA on May 1, 2002.
[0148] In one embodiment, the "peptide compound" of the present invention produced by a solid-phase method is a linear peptide compound that, in addition to the above-mentioned condition of the total number of natural and non-natural amino acids, contains at least one, preferably at least two, N-substituted amino acid residues (specifically 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 20, 25, 30, preferably 5, 6, or 7, with preferred ranges being 2-30, 3-30, 6-20, 7-19, 7-18, 7-17, 7-16, 7-15, 8-14, 9-13), and contains at least one unsubstituted amino acid residue. Examples of the proportion of N-substituted amino acids contained in such a peptide compound include 30% or more, 40% or more, 50% or more, 60% or more, 70% or more, and 80% or more of the total number of amino acids constituting the peptide compound. The N-substituted amino acid residue in this invention may be a non-natural N-substituted amino acid residue other than proline.
[0149] In one embodiment, the present invention also relates to a method for producing a cyclic peptide compound, further comprising the steps of obtaining a linear peptide compound, a salt thereof, or a solvate thereof produced by a solid-phase method, removing a resin for solid-phase synthesis, and cyclizing the C-terminal and N-terminal groups of the peptide compound to form a cyclic portion.
[0150] The steps of removing the peptide compound from the solid-phase synthesis resin and cyclizing the C-terminal and N-terminal groups of the peptide compound to form a cyclic portion can both be performed using methods known in the art. For example, the methods described in WO2013 / 100132, WO2018 / 225851, and WO2018 / 225864, or the methods described in the Solid-Phase Synthesis Handbook published by Merck KGaA on May 1, 2002, can be applied.
[0151] In one embodiment, the number of N-substituted amino acids contained in the cyclic portion of a cyclic peptide compound is preferably 2 or more or 3 or more, more preferably 4 or more, 5 or more or 6 or more, even more preferably 7 or more, particularly preferably 8 or more, and preferably 20 or less, 15 or less, 14 or less, 13 or less, 12 or less, 10 or less, and 9 or less. Examples of the number of N-substituted amino acids contained in a cyclic peptide compound as used herein include 30% or more, 40% or more, 50% or more, 60% or more, 70% or more, and 80% or more of the number of amino acids constituting the cyclic portion.

For example, the compounds of the present invention may have one or more chiral centers, and the present invention includes racemic mixtures, diastereomer mixtures, and enantiomers of such compounds.

[0154] Furthermore, if the compound according to the present invention is obtained as a salt, hydrate, or solvate of the compound, the compound can be converted to its free form according to conventional methods.
[0155] Furthermore, all prior art documents cited herein are incorporated herein by reference. [Examples]
[0156] The present invention will be further illustrated by the following examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto. All starting materials and reagents were obtained from commercial suppliers or synthesized using known methods.
[0157] [Quantitative method] The method for evaluating the loading rate onto the solid-phase synthesis resin was calculated based on the reaction conversion rate shown below. Specifically, the reaction conversion rate in the loading reaction was calculated by comparing the amount of amino acids in the reaction solution before the loading reaction started with the amount of amino acids in the reaction solution after the loading reaction was completed, and using the decrease in amount. The amount of amino acids was calculated by measuring the amino acid concentration in the reaction solution using the method shown below. Specifically, the solution after loading was filtered, 5 μL of the filtrate was diluted with 1 mL of acetonitrile, and then 1 μL of this diluted solution was used for HPLC measurement. When an aspartic acid derivative was used as the amino acid, it was calculated according to the following formula.
[0158] Reaction conversion rate (%) = {(Area of aspartic acid derivative before the start of the loading reaction) - (Area of aspartic acid derivative after the completion of loading)} x 100 / Area of aspartic acid derivative before the start of the loading reaction
[0159] The yield in the loading reaction was calculated using either the Fmoc quantitative method or by measuring the weight of the recovered amino acids after deresination treatment of the resin following the loading reaction (isolation method).
[0160] The Fmoc quantification method involves removing the Fmoc group from Fmoc amino acids supported for solid-phase synthesis and calculating the amount of Fmoc from the absorbance of the freed dibenzoflubene. The procedure for the Fmoc quantification method is as follows.
[0161] Approximately 15 mg of dry resin was accurately weighed out, and a 20% piperidine DMF solution was added to make a total volume of 100 mL. The mixture was shaken for at least 30 minutes, and approximately 1 mL of the solution was measured using a spectrophotometer.
[0162] The yield using the Fmoc quantitative method was calculated according to the following formula. Loading rate = ((Absorption value at a wavelength of 289.8 nm) / 6089) x 100000 / (Weight of dry resin measured) Yield (Fmoc quantitative method) = (Total weight of dry resin) x (Loading rate) x (Molecular weight of supported amino acid) x 100 / (Weight of supported amino acid)
[0163] Isolation procedure: A solid-phase synthesis resin on which amino acids were supported was swollen with DMF. The amino acids supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin were removed by mixing a DCM solution containing TFA with the solid-phase synthesis resin. The solid-phase synthesis resin and the solution were separated, and the solvent of the solution was removed by distillation to measure the weight of the amino acids supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin. The isolation yield of the amino acids supported on the solid-phase synthesis resin was calculated based on the weight of the amino acids used in the loading process and the weight of the amino acids recovered in the above procedure.
[0164] Amino acid isolation yield: This was calculated by subtracting the residual amount of solvent (DCM, TFA, or DMF, etc.) used in the reaction and isolation operations from the dry weight of the obtained amino acids. The residual solvent was measured under NMR conditions 1 or 2 and calculated using the method described below.
[0165] DCM residue: After accurately weighing 5 mg of the cleaved amino acid and dissolving it in 700 μL of DMSO-d6 to prepare the sample, 11H-NMR was measured.
