Macrocyclic arylopeptoids--a novel type of cyclic N-alkylated aromatic oligoamides forming nanotubular assemblies

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Apr 7;50(27):3564-7. doi: 10.1039/c4cc00821a. Epub 2014 Feb 24.

Abstract

The head-to-tail conversion of linear arylopeptoids (oligomeric N-substituted aminomethyl benzamides) into the derived novel macrocycles has enabled the first X-ray structures of arylopeptoid constructs and the identification of well-defined architectures in solution.
