Unique β‐Turn Peptoid Structures and Their Application as Asymmetric Catalysts

Peptoids, N‐substituted glycine oligomers, represent an important class of peptidomimetics that can fold into three‐dimensional structures in solution. Most of the folded peptoid structures, however, resemble helices, and this can limit their applications, specifically in asymmetric catalysis. In this work, for the first time, unique examples of pyrrolidine‐based β‐turn‐like peptoids are described and characterized, both in the solid state, by...
