Oxetane amino acids: synthesis of tetrameric and hexameric carbopeptoids derived from L-ribo 4-(aminomethyl)-oxetan-2-carboxylic acid

The synthesis of methyl 2,4-anhydro-5-azido-3-O-benzyl-5-deoxy-l-ribonate, a δ-2,4-cis-oxetane-azido ester scaffold derived from l-arabinose, is reported. Iterative coupling methods were utilised to form homo-oligomers up to the hexamer in order to investigate the secondary structural preferences of...
