Three optically active polymers of isocyanides, n, which contain imidazolyl, carboxyl, and hydroxymethyl functions in their side chains R, are described.The polymers are derived from the following diastereomeric tripeptides: L-Ala-L-His-L-Ser, L-Ala-L-His-D-Ser, and D-Ala-L-His-L-Ser.The terminal amino groups of these tripeptides are converted into isocyano functions, which are subsequently polymerized with catalytic amounts of nickel(II) chloride.The molecular weights of the polymers are in the Mv range 20000-35000.The CD spectra reveal that the polymers derived from L-Ala-L-His-L-Ser and L-Ala-L-His-D-Ser have right-handed helical configuractions.The pKa values of the imidazolyl and carboxyl groups in the polymers have increased as compared to model compounds.This suggests that strong electrostatic interactions exist between these groups.

Two variants are proposed for the synthesis of Nα-Boc-Nim-tritylhistidiine.The first variant starts from Nα,Nim-di-Boc-histidine, from which the Nim-Boc group is removed with hydrazine hydrate.The Nα-Boc-histidine formed is esterified with chlorotrimethylsilane, tritylated in the imidazole group, and, after the elimination of the trimethylsilyl protection from the carboxyl group, Nα-Boc-Nim-tritylglycine is obtained with a yield of 80percent.The second variant starts from Nα,Nim-ditritylhistidine, which, by treatment with hydrochloric acid in acetone and then with dilute ammonia, is converted into Nim- tritylhistidine.From this, by acylation with di-tert-butyl pyrocarbonate, Nα-Boc-Nim-tritylhistidine is obtained with a yield of 91percent.The acylation of Nim-tritylhistidine with other alkoxycarbonylating reagents leads to Nα-tert-amyl-, Nα-benzyl-, and Nα-4-methoxybenzyloxycarbonyl derivatives of Nim-tritylhistidine.

A sequential procedure has been developed whereby neutral amino acids 1 were tritylated via their corresponding trimethylsilyl esters 2 to afford, after mild hydrolysis, N-trityl amino acids 3 in high yields and purity.Hydroxy amino acids 4 were preferent
