Abstract

The photochemistry of several phthalimido acetamides and phthaloyl dipeptide esters has been investigated. Their photocyclization ability strongly depended on the substitution pattern of the amide linker group. While secondary amide-derived starting materials were largely unreactive, the corresponding tertiary amide-linked derivatives furnished the desired cyclic peptide model compounds in acceptable to good yields (41–80%). The structurally related ester-linked model derivatives also remained unreactive upon irradiation. Preferential hydrogen-abstraction from the E-cis-substituent is suggested to explain the observed differences in cyclization ability.
