One fold to rule them all : New heterogeneous aliphatic backbone foldamers belonging to the γ‐peptide superfamily and containing various combinations of urea/amide (U/A) and urea/carbamate (U/C) units are reported. Structural studies at atomic resolution reveal hydrogen‐bonded helical structures akin to that formed by cognate U n homooligomers.
