A convenient synthetic procedure for the preparation of seven-membered cyclic α,β-dipeptides is described. Following coupling of N-protected α-amino acids with N-substituted β-amino acid tert-butyl esters, that affords linear α,β-dipeptides, the protecting groups at the terminal functionalities were removed and the open-chain dipeptides were cyclized with phenylphosphonic dichloride, PhP(O)Cl2, to give the desired cyclic α,β-dipeptides in good yields. NMR studies, X-ray diffraction analysis, and DFT calculations provided evidence for the conformation adopted by these cyclic dipeptides in solution, in the solid-state, and in the gas phase. |
