Abstract

A complete set of difluorophenylalanines in the L-configuration [L- (F2)Phe] (namely, L-(2,3-F2)Phe, L-(2,4-F2)Phe, L-(2,5-F2)Phe, L-(2,6- F2)Phe, L-(3,4-F2)Phe, L-(3,5-F2)Phe) was prepared and incorporated into the thrombin receptor-tethered ligand peptide SFLLRNP to identify the phenyl hydrogens of the Phe-2 residue involved in the CH/π receptor interaction.
