Histidine-based copper tetrapeptides as enantioselective catalysts for aldol reactions

Copper(II)-peptides are widely used as industrial catalysts such as in the aerobic oxidation of organic molecules, formation of new C–H bonds and in the azide–alkyne cycloaddition reaction. The length of peptides and the effect of adding copper metal into peptides were questioned in their field of a...
