Synthesis, Antiradical and Anticholinesterase Properties of N-Substituted α,β-Dehydrodipeptides and Corresponding 4-Arylidene-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-ylcarboxylic Acids
摘要
Abstract
The azlactone method was used to synthesize methyl esters of N-substituted α,β-dehydrophenylalanyl, and tyrosyl dipeptides, which were converted by alkaline hydrolysis into the corresponding peptides in good yields (65–93%). From the latter, 4-arylidene-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-imidazol-1-yl carboxylic acids were obtained using 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexamethyldisilazane as a dehydrating agent. The antiradical and anticholinesterase properties of the synthesized compounds were investigated. UV and fluorescence spectra were studied.
