Abstract

The E~0~ rotamer of c‐Gly‐Met has been found to be almost as equally populated as the F rotamer at low temperatures, whereas in c‐Gly‐D,L‐Nle and c‐Gly‐D,L‐Nvl the F rotamer predominates. The increase of the E~0~ rotamer population parallels the increase of the boat diketopiperazine (DKP) ring conformation, in which Med side‐chain occupies a pseudoaxial position. Thermodynamic parameters for DKP ring inversion and for conformational transitions in the side‐chains were experimentally determined for each cyclic dipeptide investigated.

Conformational energy calculations, aimed at verification of the suitability of the semiempirical molecular orbital CND0/2 method for conformational elucidations in cyclic dipeptides formed from amino acids with aliphatic side chains, have been carried out. The results obtained for four dioxopiperaz
