An optimal hydrogen-bond surrogate for ?-helices.


ABSTRACT: Substitution of a main chain i ? i + 4 hydrogen bond with a covalent bond can nucleate and stabilize the ?-helical conformation in peptides. Herein we describe the potential of different alkene isosteres to mimic intramolecular hydrogen bonds and stabilize ?-helices in diverse peptide sequences.
