Amide bond hydrolysis of peptoids?

Chemical Communications Pub Date: 2022-08-02 DOI: 10.1039/D2CC02717H

Abstract

Incorporating a chiral non-coordinating substitution at the N-terminal end within peptoids facilitates regio-selective amide bond hydrolysis mediated by a transition metal ion and/or an acidic buffer as evident by X-ray crystallographic analysis, supported by ESI-MS. This opens up a new direction for peptidomimetic compounds towards future application in chemistry, biology and medicine.
