Abstract: The design, synthesis, and conformational analysis of a novel aromatic oligoester helix mimetic scaffold is reported. A range of amino acid-type side-chain functionality can be readily incorporated into monomer building blocks over three facile synthetic steps. Analysis of representative dimers revealed a stable conformer capable of effective mimicry of a canonical α-helix and the scaffold was found to be surprisingly stable to degradation in aqueous solutions at acidic and neutral pH.
