Selection of Amino Acids and the Biomimetic Synthesis of Amido Bond in the Presence of β-CD

Abstract

<div><p></p><p>A new method was developed to construct a special amido bond in the presence of β-cyclodextrin. This process is similar to peptide synthesis in organisms. NMR experiments were performed to investigate the possible mechanism. This work has potential application in biomimetic peptide synthesis.</p> <p>[Supplementary materials are available for this article.
