Oligomers containing both 伪- and 纬-amino acid residues in a 1:1 alternating pattern have recently been shown by several research groups to adopt helical secondary structures. We have begun to explore the folding behavior of oligomers with different 伪-residue/纬-residue backbone patterns. Previously we reported that the 纬-amino acids bearing a cyclohexyl constraint at the C尾-C纬 bond and a variable side chain at C伪 strongly promote a helical conformation containing 12-atom CO(i)鈰疕-N(i+3) hydrogen bonds for 1:1 伪:纬 backbones. Here we report synthesis and crystallographic analysis of 2:1 and 1:2 伪/纬-peptides that adopt CO(i)鈰疕-N(i+3) hydrogen-bonded helical conformations.
