## Abstract In the present paper we describe the synthesis, purification, and single‐crystal x‐ray analysis of the cyclic tetrapeptide __cyclo__‐(L‐Pro‐L‐Phe‐β‐Ala‐β‐Ala). This compound contains the β‐alanyl‐β‐alanine dipeptide as putative cyclization arm to force the remaining dipeptide‐L‐Pro‐L‐Ph
