Convergent approaches for the synthesis of the antitumoral peptide, Kahalalide F. study of orthogonal protecting groups

Kahalalide compounds are peptides that are isolated from a Hawaiian herbivorous marine species of mollusc, Elysia rufescens, and its diet, the green alga Bryopsis sp. Kahalalide F and its synthetic analogues are important compounds of Kahalalide family because they show antitumoral activity.
