The beta-subunit of the human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone, which is believed to be related to certain types of cancer, contains three hairpin-like fragments. To investigate the role of beta-hairpin formation in the early stages of the hCGbeta folding, a 28-residue peptide with the sequence

## Abstract The chemical synthesis and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis of a model peptide, Boc–Thr–Thr–NH~2~ (**1**) comprised of proteinogenic residues bearing an amphiphilic C^β^‐stereogenic center, has been described. Interestingly, the analysis of its molecular structure revealed the
