Abstract
A chiral cyclotetrapeptide (1) was synthesized from 2-nitrobenzoic acid and leucine. A single-crystal X-ray of the compound revealed a C(2) -symmetric bowl-shaped structure. The cyclic compound had a unique hydrogen-bonding network composed of three-centered hydrogen bonds and bifurcated hydrogen bonds between NH and CO of anthranilic residue. The NMR spectra and molecular modeling of 1 also suggested the chiral bowl structure.Entities:
