A bridged peptide analogue of RA-VII was designed, in which the α carbons of residues 1 and 4 were linked by a tetramethylene chain to restrict the conformational freedom of the backbone of the 18-membered cyclopeptide. This peptide analogue was synthesized by a ring-closing metathesis reaction of [l-2-allylglycine-1,l-2-allylglycine-4]RA-VII and a subsequent hydrogenation of the resulting olefinic compound. Compared with RA-VII, the analogue showed much weaker cytotoxic activity toward human promyelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells and human colon carcinoma HCT-116 cells, which may be accounted for by the difference in the orientation of the Tyr-6 phenyl ring plane between the analogue and RA-VII.
