Cyclic b-peptoids

Abstract

The first synthesis of functionalized -peptoid macrocycles is reported. X-ray crystallographic structure of tetramer 9 reveals a C2-symmetrical derivative with unexpected all-cis-amide bonds and spatial disposition of the appendages toward the two opposite faces of the ring. Quantum calculations suggest that 9 is locked in this layout. These macrocycles constitute novel promising templates for multimeric ligation of biologically active ligands. The concept was exemplified by chemical decoration of tetramer 9 via "click" reaction
