β-Peptides: Influence of Fluorine on Structure, Conformation and Function
This thesis examines the synthesis of α-fluoro-β-amino acids, and the influence of the constituent fluorine on the conformation and biological properties of β-peptide derivatives. Chapter One discusses the unique properties of the C-F bond, and applications of fluorine substitution in organic and m...
