α-Helices are common secondary structural elements forming key parts of the large, generally featureless interfacial regions of many therapeutically-relevant protein-protein interactions (PPIs). The rational design of helix mimetics is an appealing small-
Diphenylindane-based proteomimetics reproduce the projection of the i, i+3, i+4, and i+7 residues on an α-helix

The design of a nonpeptidic scaffold based on 4,7-diphenyl-1,6- disubstituted indanes mimicking i, i+3, i+4, and i+7 residues of an α-helix has been described, and its synthesis has been accomplished. This strategy makes general approaches possible to hel
