In the fight against disease . new molecular scaffolds are required to mediate protein–protein interactions. A promising strategy for the recognition of these large and often featureless interfacial surfaces is the mimicry of secondary structural protein elements. In their Communication on page 14699 ff. , S. Thompson, A. D. Hamilton and co‐workers detail a modular and scalable synthesis of non‐peptidic mimics that are conformationally preorganised by dipolar repulsion to reproduce the presentation of amino acid side‐chains from one face of a β–strand.
