The instant disclosure is directed to solution phase fragment coupling methods for preparing etelcalcetide and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts.

The invention relates to a method for preparing peptides comprising the step of forming a peptide bond wherein the carboxyl group of a first amino acid or first peptide is activated and an amino group of the first activated amino acid or first peptide is protected by a protecting group having a water-solubility enhancing group and the activated carboxyl group of the first amino acid or first peptide is reacted with an amino group of a second amino acid or second peptide wherein said carboxyl group of the first amino acid or first peptide is activated in the absence of the second amino acid or second peptide. The invention further relates to peptides comprising a protecting group having a water-solubility enhancing group being bound to the amino group and an activated or free carboxyl group.

Disclosed are deuterated analogs of SBT-20 and elamipretide (MTP-131). The compounds are useful for the treatment and prevention of ischemia-reperfusion injury (e.g., cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury) or myocardial infarction.

It was found that a salt formed of an acid and a base having characteristics set forth below can inactivate a deprotecting agent, thereby suppressing redundant peptide elongation: (i) the base is different in type from a base used as a deprotecting agent, and (ii) a conjugate acid of the base has a pKa smaller than that of a conjugate acid of a base used as a deprotecting agent.
