Abstract The chelate ligands 1-3 with lateral asymmetric centers at the nitrogen atoms were prepared and characterized. In the Rh complexes 4 and 5 the asymmetric centers directly interact with those coordination positions where during enantioselective catalysis pro-chiral substrates are converted into optically active products. The compounds 4 and 5, as well as the in situ catalysts [Rh(COD)Cl]2/2 were used in the asymmetric hydrogenation of α-N[acetamino]cinnamic acid and in the asymmetric hydrosilylation of acetophenone with diphenylsilane. The low optical inductions obtained result from the catalyst loosing its chiral information during catalysis due to racemization or fragmentation.

<div> <div> <div> <p>“Peptoids” was proposed, over decades ago, as a term describing analogs of peptides that exhibit better physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties than peptides. Oligo-(N-substituted glycines) (oligo-NSG) was previously proposed as a peptoid due to its high proteolytic resistance and membrane permeability. However, oligo-NSG is conformationally flexible and is difficult to achieve a defined shape in water. This conformational flexibility is severely limiting biological application of oligo-NSG. Here, we propose oligo-(N-substituted alanines) (oligo-NSA) as a new peptoid that forms a defined shape in water. A synthetic method established in this study enabled the first isolation and conformational study of optically pure oligo-NSA. Computational simulations, crystallographic studies and spectroscopic analysis demonstrated the well-defined extended shape of oligo-NSA realized by backbone steric effects. The new class of peptoid achieves the constrained conformation without any assistance of N-substituents and serves as an ideal scaffold for displaying functional groups in well-defined three-dimensional space, which leads to effective biomolecular recognition. </p> </div> </div> </div>
