Dipeptides with two hydrophobic side chains have proved to be an exceptional source of microporous organic materials, but since previous structures were limited to the incorporation of only proteinogenic residues, their full potential as adsorbents has remained unexplored. Single-crystal XRD data for ten new compounds with non-proteinogenic L-2-aminobutanoic acid and/or L-2-amino-pentanoic acid are presented. The gas-phase accessibility of their crystal pores, with cross-sections of 2.3 to 5.1?, was monitored by CO2 and CH4 adsorption isotherms. Included CO2 was also detected spectroscopically by 2D MAS NMR. An extensive conformational analysis reveals that the use of linear rather than branched side chains (such as L-valine and L-isoleucine) affords peptides with a greater degree of conformational freedom and yields more-flexible channel surfaces that may easily adapt to a series of potential guest molecules.

Protease catalysed hydrolysis of N-Boc-amino acid esters allows us to obtain N-Boc l-acids and d-esters of amino butanoic acid, nor-leucine, nor-valine, leucine and t-leucine in excellent ee. The reaction occurs in short reaction times and high concentrations. When a biphasic system (buffer-MTBE) is employed, a strong solvent effect is observed. This method could be of significance for the preparation of d-t-leucine, for which a practical method is currently unavailable.

Ten indolactam congeners with L-Ala, Abu, γ,δ-Δ-Nva, Nva, Nle, tert-Leu, Leu, Ile, allo-Ile. Phg instead ofL-Val in (-)-indolactam-Val, were synthesized from their seco-compounds (N-methyl-L-amino acidyl-L-tryptophonol) by microbial conversion.
