Abstract
To provide a process for the total synthesis of a cyclic peptide, which is useful as antifungal drug, and novel compounds prepared by the synthesis method. A process for synthesizing a cyclic peptide represented by the following formula (I): ##STR1## wherein X1, X2, X4 and X7 are independently N-methyl-.alpha.-amino acid or .alpha.-hydroxy acid, PA1 provided that at least one of X1, X2, X4 and X7 is a .alpha.-hydroxy acid; PA1 X3, X6 and X8 are independently .alpha.-amino acid; PA1 X5 is a cyclic amino acid; PA1 X9 is a N-methyl-.alpha.-amino acid or .alpha.-hydroxy acid substituted by a hydroxy group; PA1 and the dotted lines represent intramolecular hydrogen bonds; which process comprises cyclizing a corresponding linear peptide between X5 and X6 via a peptide bond, and a novel compound represented by the formula (I).
