Conformationally constrained aromatic oligoamide foldamers with supersecondary structure motifs†
Abstract
The design, synthesis, and structural studies of aromatic foldamers based on oligo(phenanthroline dicarboxamide)s that displayed supersecondary structure motifs have been described. Governed by a combined conformational restriction, the foldamers adopted well defined and compact 3D structures, which have been validated by UV/Vis,
