Abstract
A triazole-containing branched bis(dipeptidomimetic) 2 using l-lysine as a flexible branching unit was synthesized and characterized. The compound was found to form weak dimers (K dim = 19 M–1) in chloroform as shown by vapor pressure osmometry (VPO) and concentration-dependent 1H NMR studies. On the other hand, the compound was capable of binding chloride and monobasic diethyl phosphate (DEP) in chloroform. Job plot analysis, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and NMR titration studies revealed a 1:1 binding stoichiometry with good binding affinities (K a ≈ 640–780 M–1). Structural studies using ROESY NMR spectroscopy and molecular modelling on the 2–DEP complex indicated the adoption of a helix-like conformation by the host with the guest situated near the branching juncture.

- 21 Typical Experimental Procedure – Compound 2 Boc-V-Prg (56 mg, 0.22 mmol) and diazide 7 (57 mg, 0.1 mmol) were dissolved in degassed THF. CuSO4·5H2O (5.5 mg, 22 μmol) and sodium ascorbate (22 mg, 0.11 mmol) were then added, followed by the addition of small amount of water. The reaction mixture was stirred at 25 °C for 12 h. Saturated KHSO4 aqueous solution was added to quench the reaction. THF was removed under reduced pressure, and the remaining slurry aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc. The organic extracts were then combined, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by flash column chromatography (hexane/EtOAc = 1:1) to afford the product 2 (76 mg, 0.07 mmol, 71%) as a white solid; 159–162 °C; Rf = 0.38 (EtOAc). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 8.01 (s, T′, 1 H), 7.96 (s, T, 1 H), 7.71 (br d, J = 7.5, LαNH, 1 H), 7.46 (br s, NH2 and NH2′, 2 H), 7.39 (br s, LεNH, 1 H), 5.49 (br d, J = 8.7, BocNH or BocNH′, 1 H), 5.44 (br d, J = 8.8, BocNH′ or BocNH, 1 H), 5.16 (d, J = 10.2, V1αCH, 1 H), 4.95 (d, J = 10.2, V1′αCH, 1 H), 4.65–4.47 (m, CH2Triaz and LαCH, 5 H), 4.20–4.10 (m, V2αCH and V2′αCH, 2 H), 4.07–3.97 (m, OCH2, 2 H), 3.30–3.19 (m, LεCHH, 1 H), 3.15–3.05 (m, LεCHH, 1 H), 2.60–2.45 (m, 2 H), 2.17–2.04 (m, 2 H), 1.80–1.70 (m, 1 H), 1.64–1.50 (m, 3 H), 1.50–1.44 (m, 3 H), 1.40 (s, C(CH3)3, 18 H), 1.35–1.26 (m, 6 H), 1.20–1.10 (m, 4 H), 1.11 (d, J = 6.4, CH3, 3 H), 1.05 (d, J = 6.4, CH3, 6 H), 0.94–0.85 (m, CH3, 21 H), 0.77 (d, J = 6.4, CH3, 3 H), 0.76 (d, J = 6.4, CH3, 3 H). 13C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl3): δ = 172.3, 172.2, 171.8, 168.3, 168.2, 156.2, 144.6, 122.2, 122.0, 79.5, 70.1, 69.6, 68.1, 59.6, 52.3, 38.9, 37.6, 35.8, 35.7, 34.9, 32.2, 32.0, 31.5, 31.0, 28.7, 28.6, 28.3, 28.2, 22.6, 19.24, 19.16, 18.7, 18.0, 17.9; [α] –7.4 (c 0.06, CHCl3); ESI-MS: m/z (%) = 1096 (100) [M + Na+].
