optimal combination of cyclic amino acid ring sizes at positions 1, 4, and 5 and the role of the N-alkyl substituent at position 6 was elucidated. The lipophilic amino acids at positions 2 and 3 and the unusual amino acid D-dehydropiperazic acid at position4 were found to be the most critical residues for obtaining good oxytocin receptor affinity. Analogs containing a basic side chain at the less critical
