Condensation Approach to Aliphatic Oligourea Foldamers: Helices with N-(Pyrrolidin-2-ylmethyl)ureido Junctions

Caught in a fold: A simple and efficient coupling strategy to make aliphatic oligourea foldamers is reported. Crystal structures show that the pyrrolidine units (red; see picture) do not impair the 2.5‐helical folding of the oligoureas. This modular strategy enables assembly of long helical segments...

Zusammenfassung:Caught in a fold: A simple and efficient coupling strategy to make aliphatic oligourea foldamers is reported. Crystal structures show that the pyrrolidine units (red; see picture) do not impair the 2.5‐helical folding of the oligoureas. This modular strategy enables assembly of long helical segments containing non‐adjacent pyrrolidine units as exemplified by the synthesis of a helix that is approximately 40 Å long.
