Popis: | Starting from a single, chiral, bicyclic derivative of uracil, all four stereoisomers of 2-aminocyclobutanecarboxylic acid have been prepared in enantiomerically pure form, using a synthetic sequence which begins with a key photochemical (2+2) cycloaddi- tion reaction and includes a practical cis to trans b-amino acid isom- erisation procedure. The impact of b-amino acids and b-peptides in nature, 1 in medicinal chemistry, 2 and in the controlled design of pep- tide folding structures 3 is evident from the exponential in- crease in the volume of published research on these substances. 4 Commensurately, an increasing variety of methods have been described for the synthesis of b-amino acids in both racemic and enantiomerically enriched form. 5 A particular interest has developed for alicyclic b- amino acids; 6 these compounds are of biological interest in their own right, 6,7 while hybrid or homo-oligomers which contain these rigid cyclic motifs pre-organize in a well-defined manner leading to unique 'foldamer' struc- tures. Thus, stable helical motifs have been prepared using oligomers of trans-2-aminocyclohexanecarboxylic acid 8 and trans-2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid, 8b,9 and some of these oligopeptides are bestowed with biological activities 10 or liquid crystal properties. 11 In marked con- trast, oligomers of cis-2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid adopt a sheet-like structure. 12 Much less work has been done using small-ring b-amino acids, although initial results have been promising: for example, cis-2-aminocy- clopropanecarboxylic acid derived oligopeptides adopt stable helical conformations. 13 In the only studies involv |
