## Abstract The packing of peptide helices in crystals of the leucine‐rich decapeptide Boc‐Aib‐Leu‐Aib‐Aib‐Leu‐Leu‐Leu‐Aib‐Leu‐Aib‐OMe provides an example of ladder‐like leucylleucyl interactions between neighboring molecules. The peptide molecule forms a helix with five 5→1 hydrogen bonds and two

The protected poly-Aib oligopeptides Z-(Aib) n -N(Me)Ph with n ¼ 2 -6 were prepared according to the azirine/oxazolone method, i.e., by coupling amino or peptide acids with 2,2,N-trimethyl-N-phenyl-2H-azirin-3-amine (1a) as an Aib synthon (Scheme 2). Following the same concept, the segments Z-(Aib)
## Abstract A structural transition from a 3~10~‐helix to an α‐helix has been characterized at high resolution for an octapeptide segment located in 3 different sequences. Three synthetic peptides, decapeptide (A) Boc‐Aib‐Trp‐(Leu‐Aib‐Ala)~2~‐Phe‐Aib‐OMe, nonapeptide (B) Boc‐Trp‐(Leu‐Aib‐Ala)~2~‐Ph
## Abstract A single chiral cyclic α,α‐disubstituted amino acid, (3__S__,4__S__)‐1‐amino‐(3,4‐dimethoxy)cyclopentanecarboxylic acid [(__S__,__S__)‐Ac~5~c^dOM^], was placed at the __N__‐terminal or __C__‐terminal positions of achiral α‐aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) peptide segments. The IR and ^1^H NMR
## Abstract The conformational analysis of the CD spectrum is reported for the synthetic and membrane‐modifying nonadecapeptide analog of alamethicin __N__‐__t__‐Boc‐(Aib‐L‐Ala)~5~‐Gly‐Ala‐Aib‐Pro‐Ala‐Aib‐Aib‐Glu(OBzl)‐ Gln‐OMe. The CD data are evaluated according to three different methods and are
