Abstract

Abstract Ring-closing metathesis (RCM) was used for the preparation of the first member of a new class of ureapeptoid-containing macrocycles. Key to the approach was the enantioselective synthesis of functionalized carbamoyl alkenylglycine equivalents using (-)- B-allyldiisopinocampheylborane [(-)-d-Ipc 2 Ball]-mediated asymmetric allylation.
