The synthesis of the pentapeptide Boc-Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly-OMe has been described by Makowski et al. (2007b). Boc-Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly-OMe (0.059 g, 0.1 mmol) was dissolved in MeOH (1.5 ml), and then H2O (0.1 ml) and NaOH (0.3 ml, 0.3 mmol) were added. The reaction was carried out for 30 min at room temperature. The reaction mixture was then acidified to pH 3 and brine (~10 ml) was added. The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (5 × 3 ml). The acetate extracts were washed with 0.5 M HCl (2 × 2 ml) and brine (2 × 2 ml), and filtered on anhydrous MgSO4. After removal of EtOAc, Boc-Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly-OH was crystallized from EtOAc–hexane (Ratio?) [yield 0.056 g, 97%; m.p. 474–477 K (decomposition)]. Elemental analysis, calculated for C29H33N5O8: C 60.09, H 5.74, N 12.08%; found: C 59.89, H 5.98, N 12.12%. Boc-Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly-OH (0.058 g, 0.1 mmol) was dissolved in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA-OH; 1.0 ml) at room temperature and after 5 min, CH2Cl2 (~10 ml) was added. Solvents were evaporated and the resulting oil was evaporated twice with ~10 ml of CH2Cl2 and twice with ~10 ml of diethyl ether. The residue (a very dense oil) was dissolved in iPr-OH (1 ml) and the product was precipitated with hexane. Yield of Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly–ΔZPhe–Gly-OH.TFA was 0.056 g (94%). Elemental analysis for C26H26N5O8F3 (593.52), calculated: C 52.62, H 4.41, N 11.80%; found: C 52.83, H 4.59, N 12.09%. Crystals were grown by slow diffusion of hexane into an EtOAc–methanol (1:3 v/v) solution of the compound at room temperature.
All H atoms were positioned geometrically, with C—H distances in the range 0.95–0.99 Å, N—H = 0.88–0.91 Å and O—H = 0.84 Å, and refined with Uiso(H) = 1.5Ueq(methyl C, N1, O) and Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(non-methyl C, N).
Continuing our studies (Makowski et al., 2005, 2006, 2007a,b) of dehydropeptides containing the ΔPhe residue/s, in this paper we present the crystal structure of the title peptide, H+—Gly1–ΔZPhe2–Gly3–ΔZPhe4–Gly5—OH.CF3COO-.CH3OH, (I). This pentapeptide contains two dehydrophenylalanyl residues of the Z configuration, each situated between two flexible glycine residues. There is one molecule in the asymmetric unit, but two types of molecules occur in the crystal, each represented by the opposite torsion angles. One of them is shown in Fig. 1. The most important geometric parameters are presented in Table 1.
An α,β-dehydrophenylalanyl residue contains a double bond between the Cα and Cβ atoms. The Cα—Cβ distances (C3?C4 and C14?C15) agree with the double-bond distances found in other dehydropeptides containing two ΔPhe residues (Tuzi et al., 1997; Makowski et al., 2006, 2007a,b). A shortening of the Cα?Cβ distance because of the double bond causes unfavourable steric contacts between the side-chain and main-chain atoms of the dehydrophenylalanyl residues, which are partially relaxed by rearrangement of the N—Cα—C', N—Cα—Cβ and Cα—Cβ—Cγ bond angles. The same effects have been observed in other similar peptide structures (Jain et al., 1997; Vijayaraghavan et al., 1998; Ejsmont et al., 2001; Goel et al., 2005; Makowski et al., 2005, 2006, 2007a,b).
All the amino acids in the title peptide are linked trans to each other. The deviations from the ideal values are not larger than 10°. The torsion angles χ2 [-4.7 (3)°], χ2,1 [-28.3 (3)°] and χ2,2 [152.9 (2)°] of the first ΔPhe residue and χ4 [-1.1 (3)°], χ4,1 [17.5 (3)°] and χ4,2 [-163.7 (2)°] of the second one suggest a synperiplanar conformation of the side chains. The Φ and Ψ torsion angles of the ΔZPhe2, Gly3, and ΔZPhe4 residues correspond to the standard values for a type III β-turn (Venkatachalam, 1968). The ΔPhe residues are located at the (i+1) position of the first β-turn and the (i+2) position of the second β-turn. As a result, ΔZPhe2–Gly3–ΔZPhe4 fragment adopts a right-handed 310-helical conformation. In this case, and in our earlier paper, the same significant deviations were observed for the Ψ torsion angles of the Gly residue surrounded by dehydrophenylalanyl residues (Makowski et al., 2007b). In the pentapeptide Boc-Ala–ΔPhe-Gly–ΔPhe–Ala-OMe, where the identical central fragment adopts a right-handed helix, the same deviation is present (Ciajolo et al., 1990). When two ΔPhe moieties are linked by Ala or Val residues, the 310-helix is less distorted (Ciajolo et al., 1991; Tuzi et al., 1997).
Both β-turns are stabilized by two intramolecular 4→1 hydrogen bonds between the CO and NH groups. All data concerning the hydrogen bonds are shown in Table 2. Each peptide cation forms two hydrogen bonds (N1—H1D···O7 and N1—H1D···F1) with the trifluoroacetate anion, and this ion interacts in turn with the methanol molecule (O9—H9···O8) and the next peptide moiety (N1—H1F···O8). Additionally, there are short C?O···C?O (C2? O1···C26?O7) interactions between the peptide and methanol molecules. The molecular packing is presented in Fig. 2. Consecutive helical molecules, which form columns running parallel to the c axis, are linked by intermolecular N—H···O and C—H···O hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen-bonding pattern of the TFA-O- ions and MeOH molecules makes a bridging support for connections between consecutive peptide molecules in individual columns. The O5—H5···O9i [symmetry code: (i) 1 - x, 1 - y, -z] hydrogen bond, with an O5···O9i distance of 2.6 Å and O5—H5···O9i angle of 172°, is exceptionally strong. The only interactions between the helices are hydrophobic contacts between the dehydrophenylalanyl rings and the methyl groups of the methanol molecules.

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. |

Continuing our studies (Makowski et al., 2005, 2006, 2007a,b) of dehydropeptides containing the ΔPhe residue/s, in this paper we present the crystal structure of the title peptide, H+—Gly1–ΔZPhe2–Gly3–ΔZPhe4–Gly5—OH.CF3COO-.CH3OH, (I). This pentapeptide contains two dehydrophenylalanyl residues of the Z configuration, each situated between two flexible glycine residues. There is one molecule in the asymmetric unit, but two types of molecules occur in the crystal, each represented by the opposite torsion angles. One of them is shown in Fig. 1. The most important geometric parameters are presented in Table 1.
An α,β-dehydrophenylalanyl residue contains a double bond between the Cα and Cβ atoms. The Cα—Cβ distances (C3?C4 and C14?C15) agree with the double-bond distances found in other dehydropeptides containing two ΔPhe residues (Tuzi et al., 1997; Makowski et al., 2006, 2007a,b). A shortening of the Cα?Cβ distance because of the double bond causes unfavourable steric contacts between the side-chain and main-chain atoms of the dehydrophenylalanyl residues, which are partially relaxed by rearrangement of the N—Cα—C', N—Cα—Cβ and Cα—Cβ—Cγ bond angles. The same effects have been observed in other similar peptide structures (Jain et al., 1997; Vijayaraghavan et al., 1998; Ejsmont et al., 2001; Goel et al., 2005; Makowski et al., 2005, 2006, 2007a,b).
All the amino acids in the title peptide are linked trans to each other. The deviations from the ideal values are not larger than 10°. The torsion angles χ2 [-4.7 (3)°], χ2,1 [-28.3 (3)°] and χ2,2 [152.9 (2)°] of the first ΔPhe residue and χ4 [-1.1 (3)°], χ4,1 [17.5 (3)°] and χ4,2 [-163.7 (2)°] of the second one suggest a synperiplanar conformation of the side chains. The Φ and Ψ torsion angles of the ΔZPhe2, Gly3, and ΔZPhe4 residues correspond to the standard values for a type III β-turn (Venkatachalam, 1968). The ΔPhe residues are located at the (i+1) position of the first β-turn and the (i+2) position of the second β-turn. As a result, ΔZPhe2–Gly3–ΔZPhe4 fragment adopts a right-handed 310-helical conformation. In this case, and in our earlier paper, the same significant deviations were observed for the Ψ torsion angles of the Gly residue surrounded by dehydrophenylalanyl residues (Makowski et al., 2007b). In the pentapeptide Boc-Ala–ΔPhe-Gly–ΔPhe–Ala-OMe, where the identical central fragment adopts a right-handed helix, the same deviation is present (Ciajolo et al., 1990). When two ΔPhe moieties are linked by Ala or Val residues, the 310-helix is less distorted (Ciajolo et al., 1991; Tuzi et al., 1997).
Both β-turns are stabilized by two intramolecular 4→1 hydrogen bonds between the CO and NH groups. All data concerning the hydrogen bonds are shown in Table 2. Each peptide cation forms two hydrogen bonds (N1—H1D···O7 and N1—H1D···F1) with the trifluoroacetate anion, and this ion interacts in turn with the methanol molecule (O9—H9···O8) and the next peptide moiety (N1—H1F···O8). Additionally, there are short C?O···C?O (C2? O1···C26?O7) interactions between the peptide and methanol molecules. The molecular packing is presented in Fig. 2. Consecutive helical molecules, which form columns running parallel to the c axis, are linked by intermolecular N—H···O and C—H···O hydrogen bonds. The hydrogen-bonding pattern of the TFA-O- ions and MeOH molecules makes a bridging support for connections between consecutive peptide molecules in individual columns. The O5—H5···O9i [symmetry code: (i) 1 - x, 1 - y, -z] hydrogen bond, with an O5···O9i distance of 2.6 Å and O5—H5···O9i angle of 172°, is exceptionally strong. The only interactions between the helices are hydrophobic contacts between the dehydrophenylalanyl rings and the methyl groups of the methanol molecules.
