AbstractThis communication reports the use of a rigid organic scaffold to attach two unsymmetrical peptide chains on a single carbon atom. The approach describes the step-by-step attachment of peptide chains to the rigid dimedone template (5,5-dimethyl-1,3-cyclohexanedione) - a molecular scaffold that directs orientation of the peptide helices in a well-defined arrangement via intra-molecular hydrogen bonding. The overall topology of the final molecules was studied using CD spectroscopy which suggested existence of helical architecture.
