The conformations of all stereoisomers of PMRI cyclotetrapeptide mimetics 1 – 8 are essentially determined by the predisposition of the diamine to stabilize β‐turns. The peptide mimetics can be regarded as 3D scaffolds for designing molecules with a predictable display of the pharmacophores. We used the models for testing novel RGD analogues as α v β 3 ‐integrin receptor antagonists.
