Abstract

The synthesis of l-2-amino-8-oxodecanoic acid (Aoda) is described. This is a rare amino acid component of apicidins, a family of new cyclic tetrapeptides, inhibitors of histone deacetylase. Aoda was synthesised in seven steps from l-glutamic acid, along with some derivatives.

Key words

amino acid - Aoda - apicidins - histone deacetylase - inhibitors
