N-alkyl-β-alanine oligomers (β-peptoids) with α-chiral side chains [(R)- or (S)-1-(phenylethyl)amino groups] were synthesized and analyzed by CD spectroscopy. These chiral β-peptoid homomers exhibited chain-length-dependent and solvent-dependent ellipticity, strongly indicating the presence of a secondary structure in solution. The CD behaviour was only slightly temperature-dependent upon heating, as also previously observed for stable α-peptoid helices containing the same type of side chains. Thus, the data presented here comprise the first evidence for a chain length-dependent secondary folding of compounds with this novel peptidomimetic backbone design. In addition, applicability of a novel hyphenated technique, HPLC-SPE-NMR/MS, for analysis of crude SPPS reaction products was demonstrated.
