A Noncovalent Approach to Antiparallel β-Sheet Formation
摘要:
Four tripeptide chains, when attached to the same end of a hydrogen-bonded duplex (1.2) with the unsymmetrical, complementary sequences of ADAA/DADD, have been brought into proximity, leading to the formation of four hybrid duplexes, 1a.2a, 1a.2b, 1b.2a, and 1b.2b, each of which contains a two-stranded beta-sheet segment. The extended conformations of the peptide chains were confirmed by 1D and 2D NMR. The peptide strands stay registered through hydrogen bonding and the beta-sheets are stabilized by side chain interactions. Two-dimensional NMR data also indicate that the duplex template prevents further aggregation in the peptide segment. When the peptide chains are attached to the two different termini of the duplex template, NMR studies show the presence of a mixture with no clearly defined conformations. In the absence of the duplex template, the tripeptides are found to associate randomly. Finally, isothermal titration calorimetry studies revealed that the hybrid duplex 1a.2a was more stable than either the duplex template or the peptides alone.

In nothing flat: The title salts, having planar nitrogen centers, were utilized successfully as phase‐transfer catalysts for asymmetricMichaelreactions of tert‐butyl glycinate benzophenone Schiff base with vinyl ketone and chalcone derivatives, thus providing excellent levels of diastereo‐ and enantiocontrol (see scheme).
Herein we report the isolation and characterization of aminal intermediates in the organocatalytic α‐chlorination of aldehydes. These species are stable covalent ternary adducts of the substrate, the catalyst and the chlorinating reagent. NMR‐assisted kinetic studies and isotopic labeling experiments with the isolated intermediate did not support its involvement in downstream stereoselective processes

A family of new chiral zwitterionic phosphorus‐containing heterocycles (zPHC) have been derived from methylene‐bridged bis(imidazolines). These structures were unambiguously determined, including single‐crystal XRD analysis for two compounds. The stability, acid/base and electronic properties of these dipolar phosphorusheterocycles were subsequently investigated. zPHCs can be successfully employed

nickel-catalyzed direct ortho-thiolation of N-benzoyl α-amino acidderivatives. This novel strategy showed wide generality, functional tolerance, and high regioselectivity. In addition, dipeptidederivatives were also compatible with this transformation system, providing a potential protocol for the direct modification of peptide derivatives.
