(S)-N-[(4-{(S)-1-[2-(4-Meth-oxy-benz-amido)-2-methyl-propano-yl]pyrrolidine-2-carboxamido}-3,4,5,6-tetra-hydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)carbon-yl]proline dimethyl sulfoxide monosolvate (4-MeBz-Aib-Pro-Thp-Pro-OH).

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C28H38N4O8·C2H6OS, contains one tetra-peptide and one disordered dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) mol-ecule. The central five-membered ring (Pro(2)) of the peptide mol-ecule has a disordered envelope conformation [occupancy ratio 0.879?(2):0.121?(2)] with the envelope flap atom, the central C atom of the three ring methylene groups, lying on alternate sides of the mean ring plane. The terminal five-membered ring (Pro(4)) also adopts an envelope conformation with the C atom of the methylene group closest to the carboxylic acid function as the envelope flap, and the six-membered tetra-hydro-pyrane ring shows a chair conformation. The tetra-peptide exists in a helical conformation, stabilized by an intra-molecular hydrogen bond between the amide N-H group of the heterocyclic ?-amino acid Thp and the amide O atom of the 4-meth-oxy-benzoyl group. This inter-action has a graph set motif of S(10) and serves to maintain a fairly rigid ?-turn structure. In the crystal, the terminal hy-droxy group forms a hydrogen bond with the amide O atom of Thp of a neighbouring mol-ecule, and the amide N-H group at the opposite end of the mol-ecule forms a hydrogen bond with the amide O atom of Thp of another neighbouring mol-ecule. The combination of both inter-molecular inter-actions links the mol-ecules into an extended three-dimensional framework.
