Abstract

Herein is described a process for preparing the decapeptide Pry-His-Trp-Ser-Tyr-D-Trp-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly-NH.sub.2 ([D-Trp.sup.6 ]-LH-RH) by coupling Pyr-His-Trp-NHNH.sub.2 with H-Ser-Tyr-D-Trp-Leu-Arg-Pro-Gly-NH.sub.2. [D-Trp.sup.6 ]-LH-RH had been established to be an efficient agent for causing release of lutenizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone in mammals.
