Abstract
The synthess of 18 co‐oligopeptides of L‐methionine and glycine is reported. A series of oligomers, Boc‐Gly‐Met~n~‐OMe (n = 1–6), and six hexamers‐containing five methionyl and one glycyl residue were synthesized using the mixed anhydride procedure. Polarimetric studies give evidence that oligomers in the Boc‐Gly‐Met~n~‐Ome series are essentially disordered in hexafluoroacetone sesquihydrate but begin forming secondry structures at n > 4 in trifluorethanol. Difference in the molar rotation values found for the six hexamers in hexafluoroacetone sesquihydrate may indicate that these compounds, while primirily disordered, are present in slightly different conformations.
