Solid-Phase Synthesis of γ-AApeptides Using a Submonomeric Approach

The solid-phase synthesis of γ-AApeptides using a novel submonomeric approach that utilizes an allyl protection is reported. The strategy successfully circumvents the necessity of preparing γ-AApeptide building blocks in order to prepare γ-AApeptide sequences. This method will maximize the potential of developing chemically diverse γ-AApeptide libraries and thereby facilitate the biological applications of γ-AApeptides in the future.
