Spin-labelled diketopiperazines and peptide-peptoid chimera by Ugi-multi-component-reactions

Abstract

For the first time, spin-labelled coumpounds have been obtained by isonitrile-based multi component reactions (IMCRs). The typical IMCR Ugi-protocols offer a simple experimental setup allowing structural variety by which labelled diketopiperazines (DKPs) and peptide-peptoid chimera have been synthesized. The reaction keeps the paramagnetic spin label intact and offers a simple and versatile route to a large variety of new and chemically diverse spin labels.
