Page/Page column 33, (2019/10/19)
The invention provides an improved method of macrocyclization of peptidomimetics, as measured by isolated yields and product distribution, which comprises substitution of one or more of the backbone amide C=O bonds with a turn-inducing motif. The method is general with enhancements seen across a range of ring sizes (e.g. tri-, tetra-, penta- and hexapeptides). Specifically, the invention provides a peptidomimetic macrocycle comprising a carbonyl bioisosteric turn-inducing element having the structure: (I) wherein X is a heteroatom; and wherein R1 to R6 are each independently selected from alkyl, aryl, heteroaryl and H.
