Abstract

Peptidomimetics offers a solution to the poor pharmacokinetic properties displayed by natural peptides, by providing pharmaceutically useful chemical structures with the ability to mimic the endogenous polyamide structure. This chapter gives an overview of the past decade’s developments in the field of Pictet-Spengler reactions for the synthesis of peptidomimetics, with an emphasis on the applications of constrained heterocycles in mimicry of peptide geometry and biology.
