Elaboration and structural studies of cyclo 1:1-[α/α-N-amino]mers

In order to investigate the ability of self-organization of the alternance of α-amino and α-N-amino-acids the synthesis of cyclo 1:1-[α/α-N-amino]mers has been achieved by an iterative sequence of deprotection and coupling reactions followed by a macrocyclization step. The self-assembling of N-amino deprotected cyclo-oligomers has been characterized using X-ray diffraction experiments and FT-IR analysis.
