Macrocyclic oligomers of isophthalic acid and trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane - Building blocks for synthetic peptide receptors

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(96)02040-0

New macrocyclic oligomers of isophthalic acid and trans-1,2-diaminocyclohexane are readily prepared and useful in the synthesis of new, sequence-selective receptors for peptides. Such receptors have a simple, two-armed structural motif and the peptide sequences they bind vary with the ring size of the macrocyclic arms.
