Significance

The efficient solid-phase synthesis of callipeltin D (4) was achieved (7 steps, 35% overall yield) by the standard Fmoc method where (2R,3R,4S)-4-amino-7-guanidino-2,3-dihydroxyheptanoic acid was used as an AGDHE unit. The configuration of AGDHE in callipeltin D was confirmed by comparison of the NMR spectra of the synthesized compound 4 with those of the natural callipeltin D. Thus, the configuration of callipeltin D was completely verified [d-allothreonine, d-alanine, (2R,3R,4S)-AGDHE, (2S,3S,4R)-3,4-dimethylglutamine (DiMeGln), and (2R,3R,4R)-3-hydroxy-2,4,6-trimethylheptanoic acid (TMHEA)].
