The addition of an aqueous solution of diketopiperazine cyclo(Pro-Xxx) (Xxx: amino acid residue) to an aqueous solution of (?)-epigallocatechin-3-O-gallate (EGCg) led to precipitation of the complex of EGCg and cyclo(Pro-Xxx). The molecular capture abilities of cyclo(Pro-Xxx) using EGCg were evaluated by the ratio of the amount of cyclo(Pro-Xxx) included in the precipitates of the complex with EGCg to that of the total cyclo(Pro-Xxx) used. Stronger hydrophobicity of the side chain of the amino acid residue of cyclo(Pro-Xxx) led to a higher molecular capture ability. Furthermore, the molecular capture ability decreased when the side chain of the amino acid residue had a hydrophilic hydroxyl group. When diketopiperazine cyclo(Pro-Xxx), excluding cyclo(D-Pro-L-Ala), was taken into the hydrophobic space formed by the three aromatic A, B, and B′ rings of EGCg, and formed a complex, their conformation was maintained in the hydrophobic space. Based on nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) measurement, the 3-position methyl group of cyclo(D-Pro-L-Ala) in D2O was axial, whereas that of cyclo(L-Pro-L-Ala) was equatorial. When cyclo(D-Pro-L-Ala) was taken into the hydrophobic space of EGCg and formed a 2:2 complex, its 3-position methyl group changed from the axial position to the equatorial position due to steric hindrance by EGCg.

Two diastereoisomers of cyclo(Pro-Tyr) have been synthesized simultaneously. The crystal structures and conformations of both cyclo(L-Pro-L-Tyr) and a racemic mixture of cyclo(D-Pro-L-Tyr) and cyclo(L-Pro-DTyr), abbreviated as rac-cyclo(D-Pro-L-Tyr/L-Pro-D-Tyr), have been determined by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study at low temperature. The crystals of rac-cyclo(D-Pro-L-Tyr/L-Pro-D-Tyr) belong to orthorhombic space group Pna21 with a = 10.755 (1), b = 12.699 (1), c = 9.600 (1) A and Z = 4. The tyrosine side chain is folded towards the diketopiperazine (DKP) ring. The DKP ring adopts a twist boat conformation with pseudo symmetry C2v. The pyrrolidine ring has an envelope conformation with the N5, C4, C7 and C8 atoms in a plane. The crystal of rac-cyclo(D-Pro-L-Tyr/L-Pro-D-Tyr) is stabilized by hydrogen bonds between amide N2-H2 and carbonyl oxygen O2 in the neighbor. The hydroxyl group of tyrosine residue is also hydrogen bonded to the oxygen of the carbonyl group of the DKP ring in the next molecule. The spectroscopic properties of both isomers are also described.

l-Proline-based cyclic dipeptides were synthesized from N-Boc-protected dipeptide methyl esters under catalyst-free condition using water as a solvent. One-pot deprotection and cyclization have been used as the key steps, providing an efficient and environmentally friendly approach. Clean reaction conditions, easy isolation, and good yields of cyclic dipeptides are the salient features of the proposed methodology.
