Abstract
Cyclic dipeptides are widely used as models for larger peptides because of their simplicity and limited conformational freedom. Some cyclic dipeptides have been shown to be antiviral, antibiotic and anti‐tumour. The aim of this study was to determine the biological activity of four cyclic dipeptides synthesized in this laboratory: cyclo(L‐phenylalanyl‐L‐prolyl), cyclo(L‐tyrosyl‐L‐prolyl), cyclo(L‐tryptophanyl‐L‐prolyl) and cyclo(L‐tryptophanyl‐L‐tryptophanyl).
