Abstract

We newly synthesized fatty acid-like amphiphiles that contain a glycine, diglycine, or triglycine residue, and investigated their hydrogen bonding modes. The FT-IR spectra of these amphiphiles showed a typical amide mode attributed to polyglycine II (PGII), which is called 31-helix in a broad sense. This mode was observed as a splitting band appearing at 1650 and 1640 cm−1. On the other hand, we have already shown the amide modes attributed to a β-sheet structure. The amide I mode of the parallel β-sheet gave a single peak at more than 1630 cm−1, whereas the antiparallel β-sheet absorbed at 1690 cm−1 (weak) and 1630 cm−1 (strong). The parallel β-sheet, antiparalle β-sheet, and PGII are possible structures for a small peptide such as tripeptide, and hence, the spectral chart of the three structures, demonstrated in this study, should be helpful to diagnose a secondary structure of small peptide-containing molecules.
