OMe (I), which is an analogue of the N-terminal sequence of antiamoebins and emerimicins, establishes a completely 3,0-helical conformation with seven successive intramolecular 4 + 1 hydrogen bonds. The average, 4,+ values for residues 1-8 are -59" and -32", respectively. Crystal parameters are C47H

Abstract
Four diastereomeric‐Leu‐Leu‐Aib‐Leu‐Leu‐Aib‐peptides, Boc‐D‐Leu‐L‐Leu‐Aib‐L‐Leu‐L‐Leu‐Aib‐OMe (1), Boc‐L‐Leu‐D‐Leu‐Aib‐L‐Leu‐L‐Leu‐Aib‐OMe (2), Boc‐L‐Leu‐L‐Leu‐Aib‐D‐Leu‐L‐Leu‐Aib‐OMe (3), and Boc‐L‐Leu‐L‐Leu‐Aib‐L‐Leu‐D‐Leu‐Aib‐OMe (4), were synthesized. The crystals of the four hexapeptides were characterized by X‐ray crystallographic analysis. Two diastereomeric hexapeptides 1 and 2 having D‐Leu(1) or D‐Leu(2) were folded into right‐handed (P) 3~10~‐helical structures, while peptide 3 having D‐Leu(4) was folded into a turn structure nucleated by type III′ and I$' \bf{\beta}$‐turns, and peptide 4 having D‐Leu(5) was folded into a left‐handed (M) 3~10~‐helical structure.
