Abstract
Although known for their inferiority as hydrogen-bonding acceptors when compared to amides, esters are often found at the C-terminus of peptides and synthetic oligomers (foldamers), presumably due to the synthetic readiness with which they are obtained using protected peptide coupling, deploying amino acid esters at the C-terminus. When the H- bonding interactions deviate from regularity at the termini, peptide chains tend to “fray ...
