Conformational Analysis of beta-Lactam-Containing Ferrocene Peptides

2009

The homochiral 3-amino-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-4-phenyl-beta-lactam (≡ Alm) was conjugated with Boc-Ala giving Ala-Alm (9) after Boc-deprotection (Boc = tert-butoxycarbonyl, Ala = alanine). Coupling of FcCOOH (1) and Boc-Fca (10) with “ dipeptide” 9 resulted in the formation of FcCO-Ala-Alm (12) and the trisamide Boc-Fca-Ala-Alm (13), respectively (Fc = ferrocenyl, Fca = 1’ -aminoferrocene-1-carboxylic acid). The reactions were accomplished by the HOBt/EDC procedure and the products were obtained in good yields (HOBt = 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, EDC = N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N’ -ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride). Symmetrically 1, 1’ -disubstituted “ tetrapeptide” Fn(CO-Ala-Alm)2 (14) was prepared…

C2-Symmetric Ferrocene-Bis(ureido)peptides : Synthesis, Conformation and Solid-State Structure

2009

The extension of peptide derivatives of ferrocene-1,1'-dicarboxylic acid by formal insertion of NH units between ferrocene and peptide strands results in ferrocene-bis(ureido)-peptides. Experimentally, alanine and dialanine methyl esters were attached to the 1- and 1'-position of 1,1'-diiso-cyanoferrocene to give the corresponding bis(ureido)peptide derivatives 3 and 4. The conformation of 3 has been determined in the solid state by X-ray crystallography. In solution the preferred conformation of 3 and 4 has been elucidated by NMR, IR and CD spectroscopy in concert with DFT calculations. The secondary structure of ferrocene―bis(ureido)peptides 3 and 4 is determined by double bifurcated intr…
