| Peptidomimetic structures are important for their ability to mimic the biological activity of their natural counterparts, while exhibiting greater metabolic stability. The seminal work of Freidinger with dipeptide lactams is a classic example of peptidomimetic structures that have been frequently used for this purpose. Azapeptide analogues of Freidinger lactams have now been synthesized via intramolecular Mitsunobu reaction of azapeptide-serine or azapeptide-serine homologues. Serine homologues have been synthesized from aspartic and glutamic acid derivatives. The serine homologues were coupled with azapeptides and cyclized under Mitsunobu conditions. These methods provide a concise, unified manner to generate dipeptide lactams with a range of ring sizes.
