disrupted through α-helixmimetics. However, methods to control the conformation of mimetics for maximum efficacy can be restrictive. Here we show that destabilising syn-pentane interactions allow substituted hydrocarbons to adopt well-defined conformations to present functional groups in a way that mimics the α-helix, thus allowing them to be used as scaffolds for inhibitor design.
