Abstract

Peptide side chains play critical roles in the event of molecular recognition. In order to study the bioactive conformation of parent peptides, a concise and straightforward five-step synthesis of [5.5]-bicyclic reverse turn dipeptide mimetic scaffolds with side chain functionality at the i + 1 and i + 2 positions has been developed. In the bicyclic structure, two dihedral angles (ψ2 and φ3) are greatly restricted.
