The decapeptides Boc-Aib-L-Val-Aib-Aib-(L-Val)3-Aib-L-Val-Aib-OMe and Boc-Aib-L-Leu-Aib-Aib-(L-Leu)3-Aib-L-Leu-Aib-OMe have been studied in CDCl3 and (CD3)2SO solutions by 270-MHz1 H-nmr. In CDCl3, the presence of eight intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded NH groups has been established, consistent with a 310-helical conformation, for both decapeptides. In (CD3)2SO, only seven solvent-shielded NH groups are observed, supporting either an α-helical conformation or a partially unfolded 310-helix. Ir studies provided supporting evidence for intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded structures in CHCl3, while CD studies suggest helical conformation in both decapeptides in various solvents. CD studies also support helical folding in the C-terminal hexapeptides. The central triplet of L-amino acids appears to destabilize 310-helical conformations in polar solvents like (CD3)2SO.
