## Abstract The synthesis of novel __N__βurethaneβprotected Ξ³βmethylaminoβΞ²βoxo esters and their use as precursors for the preparation of __N__βmethyltetramic acids is described. The presence of the bulky urethane protecting group on the nitrogen atom gives rise to rotational isomers detectable in
The calculation of group electronegativity and hardness for amino acid "functional groups," considered as a biradical taken out of their protein environment, is performed for both the a-helix and p-sheet geometry of these amino acids. Group electronegativity and hardness are then used to interpret t
