Abstract
X‐ray diagrams from oriented films and fibers of poly‐N^γ^‐carbobenzoxy‐L‐α,γ‐diaminobutyric acid (PCLB) and of poly‐N^δ^‐carbobenzoxy‐L‐ornithine (PCLO) have been examined. The conformation in the solid state for both polymers is that of an α‐helix, 18/5 for PCLB and 11/3 for PCLO, respectively.
Furthermore, while the PCLB molecules are packed in a trigonal lattice whose dimensions, on hexagonal axes, are a = 27.5 and c = 27.0 Å, the PCLO unit cell is monoclinic with a = 23.3, b = 22.7, c = 16.2 Å, and γ = 119.2°.
