A series of 37 peptides containing an iodo-aryl amide active site were generated by means of both solid phase and conventional synthesis. These peptides were screened for asymmetric induction in the bromolactonization of 4-phenyl-4-pentenoic acid based on the generation of chiral bromoiodinane bromenium sources. The study culminated in the discovery of a tri-peptide iodo-aryl amide that effected the desired bromolactonization in quantitative conversion with 24% ee. The experiments disclosed herein provided valuable insight that ultimately facilitated the development of more synthetically useful enantioselective halocyclization methodology.
