A Host for Enantioselective Complexation of a Peptide in Chloroform

Eblinger, F.;Schneider, H.-J.

"An Artificial Receptor for the Intermolecular and Enantioselective Formation of Peptide Sheets"

J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun. 1998, 2297-2298.
 

Exercise: (Best done with Rasmol; save the *.pdb file before)

a) Identify the binding mode

b) Identify the interactions between host and guest / substrate and receptor molecules

c) Where possible try to estimate the corresponding free energies

d) Where applicable check where there are possible conformational distortions upon complex formation (induced fit)
