The solvent and catalyst free thermolysis of biphenylenes at 350 °C furnishes [n]cyclo-ortho-phenylenes ([n]COPs, n=4-10) in one step and in high yields. At 400 °C biphenylene dimerizes into tetraphenylene, but lower reaction temperatures produce cyclooligomers. If suitably substituted, the oligomers are soluble and can be isolated and characterized.

Ligase-Controlled Cyclo-oligomerization of Peptides.

A biomimetic one-step ligase-catalyzed cyclo-oligomerization mediated by butelase 1, an Asn/Asp-specific ligase, is introduced that is time-, concentration-, length-, and sequence-dependent. This reaction yields cyclic mono-, di-, tri-, and tetramers from peptide precursors containing 3-15 amino acids ended with Asn and a His-Val tail. The cyclomonomers were favored when the peptide lengths were >9 amino acids.

Macrocyclic oligomers possessing direction-defining ester linkages were synthesized via metathesis of the nondirectional alkyne functional group. Alkyne metathesis is expected to scramble the relative orientation of adjacent ester groups, potentially leading to a complex mixture of macrocyclic products. We wondered whether a narrow product distribution would be achievable with a proper choice of the building block structure.
