Nine new analogues of acetyl-CCK-heptapeptide (Ac-Tyr (S03H) 2-Met3-Gly4-Trp5-Met6 7-Asp7-Phe8-NH2) were synthesized by solid-phase methodology. In a first series, the Asp7 residue was replaced by hydroxy amino acid sulfate esters. In another series, Gly4 was substituted by D-Ala, while Trp5 and Met6 were replaced bytheir D enantiomer. The introduction of the sulfate ester was performed with a new, mild, crystalline, and stable reagent, pyridinium acetyl sulfate. Each analogue that contained Tyr (SOsH) 2 and a hydroxy amino acid sulfate ester [Ser (S03H), Thr (SG3H), or Hyp (S03H) l in position 7 proved to be more potent (1.9, 1.7, and 3.0 times, respectively) than CCK-8 in vitro (isolated gallbladder strips). While devoid of gastrin-like activity in vivo, these analogues had potent anticonvulsive activity. The analogues containing a D-amino acid residue were less potent than the parent compound in vitro. The D-Ala4 replacement, however, yielded a compound that was 40% as potent as CCK-8 in the in vitro test but showed prolonged duration of action on sphincter Oddi. While the 7-substituted Ac-CCK heptapeptides are among the most potent CCK analogues reported so far, the D-Ala4 replacement resulted, for the first time, in prolonged activity in vivo.The gastrointestinal peptide hormone cholecystokinin-pancreozymin exists indifferent molecular forms, including CCK-39, CCK-33, CCK-12, and CCK-8.1 All biologically active CCK fragments contain a tyrosine O-sulfate in position 27. The active center of the molecule is the C-terminal heptapeptide2 (CCK-27-33 or CCK-7), but the shortest naturally occurring biologicallyactive fragment is the C-terminal octapeptide3 (CCK-26-33 or CCK-8). 4 The N-terminal amino group of CCK-7, however, is not necessary for cholecystokinetic activity, 5 and similarly, the iV-acetyl derivative of CCK-7 shows the same potency as CCK-8 in the pancreas amylase release test. 6 Onthe basis of these observations and an earlier study7 that demon-strated that the aspartyl residue of the tetragastrin (H-
