To investigate diazepinone analogues as γ-turn mimics, seven 1,4-benzodiazepin-2-ones 6 and fourteen pyrrolo[1,2-d][1,4]benzodiazepin-6-ones 4 and 5 were synthesized from 1-(2-aminophenyl)pent-4-en-1-one (7). Acylation of aniline 7 with N-Boc-amino acids, olefin oxidation, Boc removal, and intramolecular Paal-Knorr condensation gave 4 and 5. Alternatively, Boc removal prior to oxidation gave benzodiazepinones 6, which were converted to 4 by ozonolysis and cyclization. Comparison of dihedral angle values for the amino acid component from X-ray analyses of 4g, 5f, and 6f and related diazepinones has catalogued the manner by which ring substituents affect the component's ability to mimic the central residues of γ-turns.

Protected enantiopure 2-pyrrolylalanine was synthesized for application in peptide science as an electron-rich arylalanine (histidine) analog with π-donor capability. (2S)-N-(Boc)-N'-(Phenylsulfonyl)-, (2S)-N,N'-bis-(phenylsulfonyl)-, and (2S)-N,N'-bis-(Boc)-3-(2-pyrrolyl)alanines (10, 3, and 14, respectively) were made in 13-17% overall yields and six to seven steps from oxazolidine ß-methyl ester 4. Homoallylic ketone 5 was prepared by a copper-catalyzed cascade addition of vinylmagnesium bromide to ester 4 and converted to pyrrolyl amino alcohol 7 by olefin oxidation and Paal-Knorr condensation. Protecting group shuffle and oxidation of the primary alcohol enabled the synthesis of pyrrolylalanines. The bis-Boc analog 14 proved useful in peptide chemistry and was employed to make N-acetyl-pyrrolylalaninyl-proline N''-methylamide 25. A study of the influence of the pyrrole moiety on the prolyl amide isomer equilibrium of 25 using (1)H NMR spectroscopy in chloroform, DMSO, and water demonstrated that the pyrrolylalanine peptide exhibited behavior and conformations different from those of other arylalanine analogs.
