Synthesis of a 6,6-spiroketal amino acid and its incorporation into a peptide turn sequence using solid-phase peptide synthesis

摘要

Spiropins for SPPS: The rigid structure of an anomerically stabilised spiroketal motif enables the appendage of substituents in a fixed conformation. To assess the ability of a spiroketal motif to induce a turn structure and participate in solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), an Fmoc-spiroketal amino acid was synthesised and incorporated into a spiroketal-containing cyclic peptide (see figure).
