Abstract: An effective solid phase synthesis of Argifin, providing subsequent access to effective synthesis of analogues, was developed in 13% overall yield, as well as elucidating structure-activity relationships. The novel acyclic peptide 18b, prepared from a synthetic intermediate of Argifin, was found to be 70 times more potent as an inhibitor of Serratia marcescens chitinases B than Argifin itself.
