Abstract
The syntheses of several fully protected dipeptide isosteres which incorporate a methylene-oxy bond replacing the amide bond are described. The novel methylene-oxy modification offers a polar, flexible, proteolytically resistant peptide bond surrogate which can be easily incorporated into biologically active peptides. The standard geometries of the trans-amide, methylene-oxy and methylene-thio units are compared, showing a very close geometrical resemblance of the ψ[CH2-0] unit to the amide bond.
