A chiral cyclotetrapeptide ( 1 ) was synthesized from 2‐nitrobenzoic acid and leucine. A single‐crystal X‐ray of the compound revealed a C 2 ‐symmetric bowl‐shaped structure. The cyclic compound had a unique hydrogen‐bonding network composed of three‐centered hydrogen bonds and bifurcated hydrogen bonds between NH and CO of anthranilic residue. The NMR spectra and molecular modeling of 1 also suggested the chiral bowl structure. Chirality, 2011. © 2011 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
