The present invention relates to novel amide derivatives of N-urea substituted amino acids, processes for preparing them, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use as pharmaceuticals as modulators of the N-formyl peptide receptor like-1 (FPRL-1) receptor.

The present invention is to provide a method for producing a peptide containing an N-alkylamino acid, which comprises the following Steps (1) to (3). Step (1): a step of mixing an N-terminal protected amino acid or an N-terminal protected peptide with a carboxylic acid halide or a halogenated alkyl formate; Step (2): a step of mixing an amino acid or a peptide in which the N-terminal and the C-terminal are not protected with a trialkylsilylating agent; and Step (3): a step of mixing the product obtained in Step (1) with the product obtained in Step (2).

Methods of treating aging related skin changes and of increasing skin thickness with topical administration of N-acyldipeptide derivatives are described. Compositions comprising N-acyldipeptide derivatives, are therapeutically effective for increasing skin thickness, and for treating extrinsic and intrinsic aging and aging related skin changes, such as fine lines, wrinkles, photoaging, hyperpigmentation, laxity, age spots, lentigines, mottled skin, and cellulite.

Provided is a method of preparing an N-acetyl dipeptide and an N-acetyl amino acid, the method including producing the N-acetyl dipeptide and the N-acetyl amino acid by reaction of an amino acid with acetic anhydride or acetyl chloride.

Borylated Di-Peptide Amino Acid (“Bdi-AA”) compositions and Di-Peptide Amino Acid (di-AA) compositions and methods of making Bdi-AAs and di-AAs are disclosed herein.
