Abstract

One of the marquis challenges in modern Organic Chemistry concerns the design and synthesis of abiotic compounds that emulate the exquisite complex structures and/or functions of biological macromolecules. Oligomers possessing the propensity to adopt well- defined compact conformations, or foldamers, have been attained utilizing hydrogen bonding, torsional restriction, and solvophobic interactions. 1 In this laboratory, aromatic ...
