Abstract
Crystals of the dimeric β-peptides 13 and 20, derived from (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid and (1S,2R,3S)-2-amino-3-methylcyclopentanecarboxylic acid, respectively, were synthesised and studied by X-ray diffraction in order to establish their solid state secondary structural characteristics. Compound 13 crystallises in the monoclinic space group P 2 1 with cell parameters of a = 5.2682(1) Å, b = 9.1211(2) Å, c = 22.4467(6) Å, β = 91.3855(9)°, V = 1078.29(4) Å3 and Z = 2. Compound 20 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P 2 1 2 1 2 1 with cell parameters of a = 5.0968(1) Å, b = 11.5546(2) Å, c = 43.5414(8) Å, V = 2564.22(8) Å3 and Z = 4. In both cases adjacent molecules are linked by a series of N–H···O=C hydrogen bonds to form β-sheet like structures.
Graphical Abstract
The structures of two dipeptides derived from the β-amino acids (1R,2S)-2-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid and (1S,2R,3S)-2-amino-3-methylcyclopentanecarboxylic acid have been analysed by X-ray diffraction.

Notes
It was found that 2,6-di-tert-butylphenol (2,6-DTBP) was not compatible with preparing large quantities (>10 g) of the prerequisite β-amino ester in the lithium amide conjugate addition step. Thus, an alternative, scalable procedure was developed using 2-pyridone to quench the lithium β-amino enolate which produced a 97:3 mixture of C(2)-epimeric β-amino esters. For other diastereoselective protonations of lithium β-amino enolates with 2-pyridone from our laboratory, see Refs. [45–47].
The structures of 13 and ent-20 were overlaid using the Chem-3D structure mapping function.
