Alkylation of cyclopentane carboxylic acid ethyl ester (I) by treatment with dibromoethane (II) in the presence of BuLi in THF affords derivative (III), which is then converted into azide (IV) by first hydrolysis of ethyl ester with NaOH in dioxane, followed by reaction with NaN3 in DMF. Coupling of (IV) with protected cysteines (V) and (VI) by means of HBTU yields compound (VII), which is then subjected to simultaneous Trt removal and oxidation by means of iodine in CHCl3/MeOH to provide cystine derivative (VIII). Acid deprotection of (VIII), followed by coupling to protected tyrosine (IX) and final deprotection of the resulting compound, furnishes the desired cyclic cystine compound. Alternatively, (VII) can be first subjected to acid deprotection to allow next coupling with protected tyrosine (IX), furnishing derivative (X), which is finally oxidized with iodine in CHCl3/MeOH and further deprotected to afford the target cyclic cystine derivative.
