title: An imidazoline pseudodipeptide suitable for solid phase peptide synthesis.
abstract: This paper describes the synthesis of two diastereoisomers of an imidazoline dipeptide mimetic (a 4,5 dihydroimidazole-4-carboxylic acid), suitably protected for incorporation into solid phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) using the Fmoc protocol, from a phenylalanine-derived thioimidate and an alpha,beta-diaminopropanoic acid ester, followed by protecting group manipulation.
