Abstract:
Metal‐free triazole turns : 1,5‐Disubstituted peptidyl triazoles are obtained regioselectively from the 1,3‐dipolar cycloaddition of peptidyl phosphoranes and azides. Peptide turns are thus formed that contain a conformationally locked cis peptide bond. Being regioselective and free of heavy metals, this reaction may find broad application in chemical biology and medicinal chemistry.
