Keywords: catalysis; dehydroamino acids; Hartwig–Buchwald reaction; myxovalargin; peptides; Introduction Dehydroamino acids [1] are rare amino acids that are constituents of many oligopeptides from
  • microbial sources. Typical examples are myxovalargin (1), argyrin (2) and nisin (3, Scheme 1). Dehydroamino acids and peptides are characterized by the presence of an olefinic double bond conjugated with the carboxyl or peptidic carbonyl group. Besides being α,β-unsaturated acids or amides, respectively
  • , they can also be regarded as enamines. Due to the lack of reactivity of the amino group as well as the carboxylate, dehydroamino acids have hardly employed as building blocks in peptide synthesis. Therefore, the olefinic double bond is commonly introduced after the peptide backbone is assembled and

  • important issue of the determination of the secondary structure and properties of peptides is the Z/E-isomerism of dehydroamino acids. This phenomenon can be critical for their biological activity [16][17][18] and for the secondary structure of the peptide chain. Generally, the (Z)-isomers are
  • thermodynamically more stable and easier to obtain. As a consequence, the (Z)-isomers are much more common than the (E)-counterpart [19]. Dehydroamino acids contribute to a catalytic role in the active sites of some enzymes [20][21][22]. Additionally, the presence of these dehydrogenated analogues of amino acids is
