Methyl-and (Trifluoromethyl)

alkene Peptide Isosteres: Synthesis and Evaluation of Their Potential as β-Turn Promoters and Peptide Mimetics.

-Enantioselective synthetic approaches toward L-Ala-D-Ala (or enantiomeric) dipeptide isosteres are presented, including for the first time the preparation of a CF 3 -alkene isostere. The particularly promising convergent pathway utilizes the S N 2'-addition of cuprate reagents to alkenyl aziridines and allylic mesylates. The conformations of the isosteres are compared with the structures of parent disubstituted alkenes with a view to peptide mimetic properties.
