abstract
Two amino acid derived synthons were combined to give homopropargylic amines 2. Platinum dichloride was used to cyclize these intermediates into pyrroles 3 which collapsed to the target secondary structure mimics 1 on treatment with base. Side chains of these compounds overlay with an idealized type 1 -turn and with an inverse -turn.
