## Abstract We have studied the nmr spectra of the series of alanine oligopeptides containing a methoxyethoxyethoxyacetyl blocking group on the __N__‐terminal residue and a morpholino blocking group on the __C__‐terminal residue. Spectra were measured in chloroform–trifluoroacetic acid solvent syst

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
By use of high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance and infrared spectroscopy, we have found evidence for specific folded forms for the methoxyethoxyethoxyacetyl‐blocked alanine tetramer ethyl ester. It appears that this tetrapeptide derivative exists in a folded form which is in rapid equilibrium with an extended structure (i.e., below 1% w/v). At high concentrations (i.e., above 1% w/v in chloroform) the folded form is stabilized by an association of the alanine tetrapeptide derivative into a side‐by‐side dimer which contains specific hydrogen bonds between the amine terminal regions of the two folded structures.
