Key words
palladium catalysis - macrocyclization - S-arylation - iodoarenes - cross-linked peptide macrocyclesSignificance
Macrocyclic peptides are highly demanding targets in the field of peptide-drug discovery. The authors have developed an unprecedented macrocyclization of native peptides containing cysteine residues by reaction with di- or triiodo(het) arenes with the help of a palladium catalyst.

Comment
The palladium-catalyzed multiple S-arylation of cysteine residues of unprotected native peptides with di- or triiodo(het)arenes proceeded smoothly to afford the desired macrocyclic peptides in good yields. This method is practically simple and is one of the most powerful methods for the production of cross-linked peptide macrocycles.
