Conformational investigation of α,β-dehydropeptides. IX. N-Acetyl-(E)-α,β-dehydrobutyrine N′-methylamide: stereoelectronic properties from infrared a…

2009

The Fourier transform infrared spectra of Ac-(E)-deltaAbu-NHMe were analyzed to determine the predominant solution conformation(s) of this (E)-alpha,beta-dehydropeptide-related compound and the electron density perturbation in its amide groups. The measurements were performed in dichloromethane and acetonitrile in the region of mode vs (N-H), amide I, amide II and vs (C(alpha)=Cbeta). The equilibrium geometrical parameters, calculated by a method based on the density functional theory with the B3LYP functional and the 6-31G* basis set, were used to support spectroscopic interpretation and gain some deeper insight into the molecule. The experimental and theoretical data were compared with th…

Co-ordination of copper(II) ions by prolyl-α,β-dehydroamino acids: comparative studies and general considerations

1996

Potentiometric and spectroscopic measurements and theoretical calculations have revealed that α,β-dehydroamino acid residues have a considerable effect on the co-ordination ability of an adjacent amide nitrogen towards Cu2+ ions. Also the side chain of such residues affects the stability constants and, in some cases, the binding mode of short peptides containing α,β-dehydroamino acid residues. The theoretical calculations showed that all dehydroamino acids except α,β-dehydroalanine tend to bend a peptide chain towards a turn conformation. This has a very strong impact on the co-ordination ability of a dehydropeptide ligand.

Conformational investigation of α,β-dehydropeptides VII*. Conformation of Ac-Pro-ΔAla-NHCH3 and Ac-Pro-(E)-ΔAbu-NHCH3: comparison with (Z)-substitute…

2009

The crystal structure and solution conformation of Ac-Pro-deltaAla-NHCH3 and the solution conformation of Ac-Pro-(E)-deltaAbu-NHCH3 were investigated by X-ray diffraction method and NMR, FTIR and CD spectroscopies. Ac-Pro-deltaAla-NHCH3 adopts an extended-coil conformation in the crystalline state, with all-trans peptide bonds and the deltaAla residue being in a C5 form, phi(1)=-71.4(4), psi(1)=-16.8(4), phi(2)= -178.4(3) and psi(2)= 172.4(3) degrees. In inert solvents the peptide also assumes the C5 conformation, but a gamma-turn on the Pro residue cannot be ruled out. In these solvents Ac-Pro-(E)-deltaAbu-NHCH3 accommodates a beta(II)-turn, but a minor conformer with a nearly planar dispo…

Conformational investigation of αβ-dehydropeptides

2009

Solution conformations of three series of model peptides, homochiral Ac-Pro-L-Xaa-NHCH3 and heterochiral Ac-Pro-D-Xaa-NHCH3 (Xaa = Val, Phe, Leu, Abu, Ala) as well as alpha,beta-unsaturated Ac-Pro-delta Xaa-NHCH3 [delta Xaa = delta Val, (Z)-delta Phe, (Z)-delta Leu, (Z)-delta Abu] were investigated in CDCl3 and CH2Cl2 by 1H-, 13C-NMR, and FTIR spectroscopy. NH stretching absorption spectra, solvent shifts delta delta for NH (Xaa) and NHCH3 on going from CDCl3 to (CD3)2SO, diagnostic interresidue proton NOEs, and trans-cis isomer ratios were examined. These studies performed showed the essential difference in conformational propensities between homochiral peptides (L-Xaa) on the one hand and…
