Synthesis of Cross-linkable 2,5-Diketopiperazine Derivatives

Synthesis of cross-linkable diketopiperadine derivatives is described. Cross-linkable aamino acid methyl esters were subjected to peptide synthesis with Boc-protected glycine or L-tyrosine. No protection of cross-linkable functional groups (catechol and phenylazide) is necessary for the construction of diketopiperazine skeleton.
