Abstract
Non-symmetric disubstituted malonamides rAA-mGly-AA', obtained from Meldrum's acid, were considered as methylene active compounds and a Knoevenagel condensation methodology was developed involving piperidine and activated 4 molecular sieves as catalysts. The reaction is efficient, broad in scope, and easy to perform and allows access to E/Z mixtures of short malonyl dehydro peptides (MDHPs) rAA-m Delta(2)AAaEuro(3)-AA', partially modified retro peptides characterized by an interesting combination of retro and dehydro modifications in the same structure.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
