The title compound was synthesized from tert-butoxycarbonyl-(O-benzyl)-L-tyrosine and methyl iodide in the presence of KH and crown ether (18-C-6) (Schuman et al., 1983). The tyrosine derivative t hus formed is suitable for peptide synthesis both in solution and on solid-phase via peptide-chain elongation because it has a protected amino group (Boc) and an unprotected carboxylic acid group. Single crystals of the title compound (m.p. = 400–401 K) were obtained by slow evaporation from an ethyl acetate/petroleum ether solution at room temperature.
The position and isotropic displacement parameter of the hydroxyl H atom were refined. All other H atoms were generated geometrically and treated as riding atoms (C—H = 0.93–0.98 Å). The Friedel-equivalent reflections were merged, as attempted refinement of the Flack (1983) parameter was inconclusive [refined value 0.5 (10)]. The absolute configuration was set by reference to the known configuration of L-tyrosine.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

Conformational studies of peptides and pseudopeptides (peptidomimetics) represent an ongoing project in our laboratory aimed at finding new biologically active peptide analogues and new proteases inhibitors. N-Alkylated amino acids occur in many natural compounds, like antibiotics or toxins, and they are widely used in the synthesis of peptide analogues. As an example, incorporation of N-methylglycine (sarcosine) and N-methylalanine at position 7 of oxytocin has led to new derivatives with interesting properties (Grzonka et al., 1983; Gazis et al., 1984). The well known and widely used immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A contains seven N-methylated amino acid residues (Loosli et al., 1985). The N-alkylated peptide bond is more resistant to enzymatic cleavage. The cis–trans isomerization of N-alkyated peptide bonds is shifted towards the cis-isomer. Finally, incorporation of N-alkylamino acid residues into the polypeptide chain decreases the possibility of hydrogen-bond formation, and at the same time, increases the hydrophobicity of such peptide fragments (Spatola, 1983). The present study is a contribution to our understanding of the structural role of N-methylation in amino acids and peptide derivatives.
The molecular structure and atom-numbering scheme of the title compound, (I), is shown in Fig. 1. A selection of bond distances and angles are given in Table 1 together with some notable torsion angles. The bond lengths within the tert-butoxycarbonyl group are very similar (except for the bond C19—O4, which is lengthened by nearly 0.02 Å) to the average lengths for this blocking group compiled by Benedetti et al. (1980). There is one notable variation from these averages in the bond angles involving the urethane bond. Thus, the C18—O4—C19 angle is 2° wider than the computed averages for these urethane linkages (Table 1). The conformation of the tert-butoxycarbonyl group, characterized by the torsion angles Θ0 (C19—O4—C18—O3) and ω0 (O4—C18—N1—C2), is trans–trans (Table 1). This is opposite to most of the published X-ray structures of compounds containing the tert-butoxycarbonyl group at a tertiary N atom (e.g. proline or sarcosine derivatives), which usually have a cis-urethane bond (Benedetti et al., 1980). The deviation from planarity of the urethane bond is in a typical range found for tert-butoxycarbonylamino acid and peptide derivatives (Sobková et al., 1996; Banumathi et al., 1999). The backbone conformation is characterized by the torsion angles Φ (C18—N1—C2—C1) and Ψ (O1—C1—C2—N1), and the conformation of the side chain is characterized by χ1 (N1—C2—C3—C4) and χ2 (C2—C3—C4—C5) (Table 1). Therefore, the side chain has a folded conformation. The O5—C10 bond is roughly coplanar with the tyrosine ring [C6—C7—O5—C10 = 1.3 (4)°] but perpendicular to the benzyl ring [O5—C10—C11—C12 = -85.7 (3)°]. With the O5—C10 bond in the trans orientation [C7—O5—C10—C11 = -176.9 (2)°], the two phenyl rings are thus perpendicular to each other [interplanar angle 86.5 (5)°]. The tyrosine and benzyl rings are planar with χ2 values of 43.1 and 11.1°, respectively. In the crystal packing, the tyrosine and benzyl moieties form layers with the tert-butoxycarbonyl groups located between them (Fig. 2).
The carboxylate hydroxyl and the urethane carbonyl group form a strong intermolecular O1—H1···O3 hydrogen bond [O1···O3i 2.679 (2) Å and O1—H1···O3i 170 (3)°; symmetry code: (i) -x - 1, y - 0.5, -z - 0.5] (Fig. 2). A similar hydrogen bond was also reported in the crystal structure of tert-butoxycarbonyl-phenylalanine (Bats at al., 1980).
