Abstract
Olefin metathesis has been successfully applied to the synthesis of macrocyclic helical peptides [Eq. (a)]. Carbon–carbon bond tethers between amino acid side chains were introduced by ring‐closing metathesis. This macrocyclization protocol is a novel and mild procedure for introducing nonnative covalent cross‐links into peptide helices.
