Using the host-guest technique, tentative scales for the helix-inducing power and the (3-structure-forming potential of various side-chain protected amino acid residues in trifluoroethanol are established mainly by CD measurements.

## Abstract Understanding the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity of amino acid side chains in peptides/proteins is one the most important aspects of biology. Though many hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity scales have been generated, an “intrinsic” scale has yet to be achieved. “Intrinsic” implies the maximum
