Abstract
(Chemical Equation Presented) Short α/β-peptides, containing conformationally restricted cis-β-aminocyclopropylcarboxylic acid units as turn-inducing elements, have been found to be efficient catalysts for inter-and intramolecular aldol reactions. The tripeptide H-(L)-Pro-▲-(L)-Pro-OH was identified to perform especially well in homogeneous and heterogeneous aqueous solutions as well as in organic solvents.
