Conformationally rigid α‐amino‐δ‐lactam surrogates of Glu‐Gly and Gln‐Gly dipeptides have been synthesized from α‐amino‐γ‐vinyl‐δ‐lactam precursors. A reductive cyclization protocol from the respective (4 R )‐ and (4 S )‐2‐ N ‐(Boc)amino‐4‐(azidomethyl)hexenoates gave δ‐lactams, which were converted to the corresponding dipeptide surrogates by N ‐alkylation with methyl bromoacetate. The utility of these α‐amino‐γ‐vinyl‐δ‐lactam building blocks was demonstrated by olefin oxidation and peptide coupling to prepare constrained Glu and Gln residues.
