Foldamers are sequence-specific oligomers akin to peptides, proteins and oligonucleotides
that fold into well-defined three-dimensional structures. They offer the chemical biologist a …

Stimuli‐responsive peptides and proteins are an exciting class of smart biomaterials for
various applications and have received significant attention over the past decades. A wide …

N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-mediated ring-opening polymerization (ROP) of N-
substituted N-carboxylanhydride (N R-NCA) yields cyclic poly (α-peptoid) s with controlled …

Polypeptoids have recently emerged as a subject of scientific interest due to their structural
resemblance to existing pseudo-peptidic polymers including poly (α-peptide) s, poly (β …

Peptoids (N-substituted polyglycines and extended peptoids with variant backbone amino-
acid monomer units) are oligomeric synthetic polymers that are becoming a valuable …

N-Heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-mediated polymerizations of N-butyl N-carboxyanhydride
(Bu-NCA) to produce cyclic poly (N-butyl glycine) s (c-NHC-PNBGs) have been investigated …

Non-natural peptide analogs have significant potential for the development of new materials
and pharmacologically active ligands. One such architecture, the β-peptoids (N-alkyl-β …

Conspectus For a long time, peptides were considered unsuitable for drug development due
to their inherently poor pharmacokinetic properties and proteolytic susceptibility. However …

We present an analysis of the conformational preferences of N-substituted glycine peptoid
oligomers. We survey the backbone conformations observed in experimentally determined …

Random copolymers based on poly (N-ethyl glycine) and poly (N-butyl glycine) have been
synthesized by NHC-mediated or primary amine-initiated copolymerization of the …
