Summary

N 1.5-Glycosyl enkephalins are potent analgesics. Two enkephalin-related glycosyl peptides: [DMet2, Pro5] enkephalin (N 1.5 β-glucopyranosyl] amide and [DMet2, Pro5] enkephalin [N 1.5 β-galactosyl] amide have been prepared following the liquid phase procedure. The chromatographic behavior of both the final glycosyl enkephalins and their synthetic intermediates on reversed-phase columns has been tested. Semipreparative, reversed-phase, HPLC conditions have been developed in order to obtain a simple and rapid procedure for the purification of the two synthetic pentapeptides. Thus, using isocratic elution, injections of 10mg of crude material after gel filtration gave homogeneous (99.9%) glycosyl enkephalins.
