- structurally related to these natural peptidomimetics has been used as a promising strategy for the attenuation of bacterial virulence in strains of S. aureus [12][13][14][15]. Herein, we report the synthesis of new sulfide-based cyclic peptidomimetics through the allylic nucleophilic substitution (SN2’) of
