Chiral five‐membered carbocyclic ring amino acids bearing various diol acetal moieties were synthesized starting from l ‐malic acid, and homo‐chiral homopeptides composed of cyclic amino acid (S)‐Ac 5 c 3EG bearing an ethylene glycol acetal, up to an octapeptide, were prepared. A conformational analysis revealed that (S)‐Ac 5 c 3EG homopeptides formed helical structures. (S)‐Ac 5 c 3EG homopeptides, up to hexapeptides, formed helical structures without controlling the helical screw direction, while (S)‐Ac 5 c 3EG hepta‐ and octapeptides formed helical structures with a preference for the left‐handed (M) helical‐screw direction. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
