Abstract

The heal of solution of Poly‐ε‐carbobenzoxy‐L‐lysine and of a series of its copolymers with phenylalanine was measured as a function of solvent composition. The enthalpy change of the helix‐to‐coil transition was estimated for the various cases. The previous findings that side chains do not greatly affect the transition enthalpy is confirmed also in cases having much larger differences in helix stability.
