G. Pattenden et T. Thompson, Design and synthesis of novel tubular and cage structures based on thiazole-containing macrolactams related to marine cyclopeptides, CHEM COMMUN, (8), 2001, pp. 717-718
Tubular and cage structures, i.e. 16 and 18, have been synthesised from mod
ified cyclic peptides following selective cyclotrimerisations of l-ornithin
e and l-glutamic acid thiazole amino acids under high dilution conditions.
