synthetic equivalents of a variety of α‐carboxylate anions. Phase‐transfer catalysis (PTC) enabled their mild deprotonation and catalytic asymmetric addition to highly reactive imines generated in situ from α‐amidosulfones (see scheme; Pg=protecting group). The synthetic utility of the products was demonstrated by their straightforward transformation into a range of β‐amino acid derivatives.

that, for α‐fluoroamides, the FCC(O)N(H) moiety adopts an antiperiplanar conformation. In addition, a gauche conformation is favoured between the vicinal CF and CN(CO) bonds in N‐β‐fluoroethylamides. This study details the synthesis of a series of fluorinated β‐peptides (1–8) designed to use these stereoelectronic effects to control the conformation of β‐peptide bonds. X‐ray crystal structures of

A systematic modification of the C3 side-chain of the beta-aminoester class of factor Xa inhibitors and a survey Of P-4 variations is described. These changes have resulted in the identification of sub-nanomolar inhibitors with improved selectivity versus related proteases. Coagulation parameters (i.e., APTT doubling concentrations) are also improved. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
CD Spectra in Methanol ofβ-Oligopeptides Consisting ofβ-Amino Acids with Functionalized Side Chains, with Alternating Configuration, and with Geminal Backbone Substituents - Fingerprints of New Secondary Structures?

beta -Hexa-, beta -hepta-, and beta -nonapeptides, 1-6, which carry functionalized side chains (CO(2)R, CO(2)(-), (CH(2))(4)NH(3)(+), CH(2)-CH=CH(2)) consisting of beta (3)-amino-acid residues of alternating configuration, or which carry geminal substituents in the 2- or 3-positions of all residues, have been synthesized (Schemes 1 - 3), and their CD spectra in MeOH are reported (Figs. 2 - 6). Strong Cotton effects (Theta >10(5)) are indicative of the presence of chiral secondary structures. It is suggested by simple modelling (Fig. 1) that the new beta -peptides should not be able to fold to the familiar 3(14)-helical structures. Still, three of them (3, 4, and 5) give rise to CD spectra matching those of beta -peptides that are known to be present as (M)- or (P)3(14)-helices in MeOH solution. While possible folding motifs (Figs. 3, b, and 7) of the new beta -peptides have been identified in crystal structures, an interpretation of the CD spectra has to be postponed until NMR solution structures become available. A list of all beta -peptides giving rise to CD spectra with a minimum near 215 nm is included (Table).
