New system for peptide synthesis using N-acylpyrazoles
New system of peptide synthesis was described. The extension of one amino acid unit on the peptide chain was constituted from only 2 reaction steps, the conversion from esters to the corresponding N-acylpyrazoles and the subsequent aminolysis with amino esters. This new system was distinctive from the conventional peptide synthesis, which was consisted of 3 steps of the deprotection, the activation and the condensation. Moreover, the key intermediate N-acylpyrazoles exhibited the excellent properties of high sensitivity and separability for the chiral column on HPLC using the UV detector.

The Reformatsky Reaction of 1-Acyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazoles. A Convenient Preparation of 4-Amino-3-oxoalkanoic Acid Derivatives
The conversion of N-acylpyrazoles into β-keto esters was accomplished efficiently by the treatment with α-bromo esters and zinc dust.Using this Reformatsky reaction of N-acylpyrazoles, 4-(protected amino)-3-oxoalkanoic acid derivatives were conveniently prepared as the key intermediates in the synthesis of statines.
