Efficient optimization of a peptide lead into a drug candidate frequently needs further transformation to augment properties such as bioavailability. Among the different options, foldamers, which are sequence-based oligomers with precise folded conformation, have emerged as a promising technology. We introduce oligourea foldamers to reduce the peptide character of inhibitors of protein–protein interactions (PPI). However, the precise design of such mimics is currently limited by the lack of structural information on how these foldamers adapt to protein surfaces. We report a collection of X-ray structures of peptide–oligourea hybrids in complex with ubiquitin ligase MDM2 and vitamin D receptor and show how such hybrid oligomers can be designed to bind with high affinity to protein targets. This work should enable the generation of more effective foldamer-based disruptors of PPIs in the context of peptide lead optimization.

The sulfated polyborate catalyzed an efficient and chemoselective N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines under ultrasonic irradiation is developed. A broad substrate scope has been demonstrated for N-Boc protection of various primary/secondary amines. It allows converting several aliphatic/aryl/heteroaryl amines, amino alcohol, aminoester, and chiral amines to their N-Boc-protected derivatives under solvent-free conditions with excellent yields. The protocol has several advantages such as easy catalyst, and product isolation, short reaction time, excellent yields, outstanding chemoselectivity, and catalyst recyclability, among others. This makes the process practicable, economical, and environmentally benign.

Sulfated tungstate catalyzed an efficient and ecofriendly protocol has been described for the chemoselective N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines under the solvent-free conditions at room temperature. The variety of functionalized aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic amines efficiently undergoes the N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation under the developed protocol. The aminoalcohol, aminophenol, aminoester as well as various chiral amines underwent the chemoselective N-Boc protection under the optimized reaction condition. The rapid reaction rate, mild conditions, very good functional group tolerance, excellent yield, solvent-free, easy recovery products and excellent catalyst recyclability are the advantages of this protocol. This makes the protocol feasible, economical and environmentally benign.
