摘要
Aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) is a synthetic amino acid known to favor the formation of 3(10) helical structures in condensed phases, namely, crystals. The intrinsic character of these helicogenic properties has been investigated on the Ac-Aib-Phe-Aib-NH2 molecule under isolated conditions, namely, in the gas phase, both experimentally by double-resonance IR/UV spectroscopy and theoretically by quantum chemistry. A convergent set of evidence, based on energetic, IR, and UV spectroscopic data as well as on analogies with the similar peptide Ac-Ala-Phe-Ala-NH2 previously studied, enables us to conclude the formation of an incipient 3(10) helix in these isolated systems.
