Abstract

The structural features required of-terminal helix caps which might display high α-helix- forming propensities (Zimm–Bragg-values close to unity) were considered and two systems were identified as initial candidates for synthesis and evaluation. The first system was an eleven-membered cyclic all-triamide derived
