Abstract:The development of peptidomimetics to modulate the conformational profile of peptides has been extensively studied in the fields of biological and medicinal chemistry. However, large‐scale synthesis of peptidomimetics with both an ordered sequence and a controlled secondary structure is highly challenging. In this paper, the framework of peptidomimetics has been designed to be alternating an achiral α,α‐disubstituted α‐amino acid unit and a chiral α‐methylphenylalanine unit. The polymers were synthesized via o… Show more
