Abstract
Novel N-(ureidoethyl)amides of cyclic enkephalin analogs have been synthesized. The p-nitrophenyl carbamate of 1-Boc-1,2-diaminoethane was coupled with 4-methylbenzhydrylamine (MBHA) resin. The Boc group was removed by treatment with HCl/dioxane, and the peptide chain was assembled using Boc strategy. For deprotection of amino function, HCl/dioxane was used. D-Lys or D-Orn were incorporated in position 2, and the side chains of Lys, Orn, Dab, or Dap in position 5 were protected with Fmoc group. Side chain protection was removed by treatment with 55% piperidine in DMF, and cyclization was achieved by treatment with bis-(4-nitrophenyl)carbonate to form a urea bridge. The peptide was cleaved from the resin by treatment with 45% TFA in DCM. The peptides were tested in the guinea-pig ileum (GPI) and mouse vas deferens (MVD) assays. Divers opioid activities were observed, depending on the size of the ring. In comparison with [Leu(5)]enkephalin, all peptides were more active in the GPI assay (between 125 and 12 times), and some of them were also more potent in the MVD assay. The conformational propensities of each peptide were determined using the EDMC method in conjunction with NMR experiments. This approach allows treating the dynamical behavior of small peptides properly. The results were compared with those obtained previously for corresponding nonsubstituted amides and are in agreement with the biologically active conformation proposed by us earlier.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
