Significance

Late-stage functionalization of peptides has enormous potential for drug discovery. The authors have developed a palladium-catalyzed C(sp2)–H olefination at the aromatic ring of oxazole-containing peptides.


#

Comment

The palladium-catalyzed olefination proceeds for various oxazolone-containing peptides. Moreover, this method can be applied to macrocyclization.
