SYNTHESIS OF CARBOHYDRATE-TEMPLATED AMINO ACIDS AND METHODS OF USING SAME

摘要

The present invention generally relates to tetrahydropyranyl-derivatized amino acids, their syntheses and their incorporation into peptides and peptidomimetics. The tetrahydropyran moiety constrains the side chain of an amino acid, thereby providing a molecule that may act as a sugar- or amino acid-mimetic as well as a scaffold for combinatorial synthesis.
