In this study, we developed an efficient and practical procedure for the synthesis of tetra-substituted ∆5-2-oxopiperazine that mimics the bioactive β-turn structural motif of proteins. This synthetic route is robust and modular enough to accommodate 4 different substituents to obtain a high level of molecular diversity without any deterioration in stereochemical enrichment of the natural and unnatural amino acids. Through the in silico studies, including a distance calculation of side chains and a conformational overlapping of our model compound with a native β-turn structure, we successfully demonstrated the conformational similarity of tetra-substituted ∆5-2-oxopiperazine to the β-turn motif. For the library construction in a high-throughput manner, the fluorous tag technology was adopted with the use of a solution-phase parallel synthesis platform. A 140-membered pilot library of tetra-substituted ∆5-2-oxopiperazines was achieved with an average purity of 90% without further purification.
