✦ Synopsis


Short syntheses of enantiomeric templated scaffolds of cis-and trans-tetrahydrofuran g-amino acids from pentono-dlactones derived from arabinose and ribose are reported; an unexpectedly efficient synthesis of a templated tetrahydrofuran b-amino acid by azide displacement of a triflate b to an ester function proceeds with remarkably little elimination. These materials should allow evaluation of such peptidomimetics to induce predisposition towards secondary structures.
