Significance

Macrocyclic peptides gained tremendous attention in peptide drug discovery. In this study, the authors developed the Rh(III)-catalyzed macrocyclization of suitably substituted acryloyl-peptide-dioxazolone precursors with arylboronic acids to form macrocyclic peptides.

Comment

A series of macrocyclic peptides were synthesized by Rh-catalyzed carboamidation ligation strategy of suitably substituted acryloyl-peptide-dioxazolone precursors with arylboronic acids. This protocol is useful for the synthesis of macrocyclic peptides having unnatural amino acids.
