Peptoids, amino acid mimics, have the basic unit of N-substituted glycine derivatives and were designed as a new series of potentially bioactive compounds (Simon et al., 1992; Zuckermann, Kerr, Kent, & Moos, 1992). The side chain or functional group is bonded to the alpha-nitrogen, contrary to the usual side chain, bound to the alpha-carbon. The chemical structure is similar to that of a \b-amino acid, and metabolic stability, reduction of conformational constraint by chirality and wide variability of functional groups are expected (Figliozzi, Goldsmith, Ng, Banville, & Zuckermann, 1996). Relative to polypeptides, polypeptoids have their side chains shifted by one position along the backbone. A monomer derivative, N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-N-benzylglycine (Boc-Nphe), was crystallized from ethyl acetate solution in the centrosymmetric space group P21/a.
