Approach control. Stereoelectronic origin of geometric constraints on N-to-S and N-to-O acyl shifts in peptides

Abstract

Intramolecular N-to-S or N-to-O acyl shifts in peptides are of fundamental and practical importance, as they constitute the first step in protein splicing and can be used for the synthesis of thioester-modified peptides required for native chemical ligation.
