In water, diketopiperazines cyclo(L-Pro-L-Xxx) and cyclo(L-Pro-D-Xxx) (Xxx=Phe, Tyr) formed an intramolecular hydrophobic interaction between the main skeleton part and their benzene ring, and both cyclo(L-Pro-L-Xxx) and cyclo(L-Pro-D-Xxx) took a folded conformation. The conformational changes from folded to extended conformation by addition of several deuterated organic solvents (acetone-d6, metanol-d4, dimethyl sulfoxide-d6 (DMSO-d6)) and the temperature rise were investigated using 1H-NMR spectra. The results suggested that the intrarmolecular hydrophobic interaction of cyclo(L-Pro-D-Xxx) formed more strongtly than that of cyclo(L-Pro-L-Xxx). Under a basic condition of 1.0×10-1 mol/L potassium deuteroxide, enolization of O1-C1-C9-H9 moiety of cyclo(L-Pro-L-Xxx) occurred, while that of the O4-C4-C3-H3 moiety did not. Cyclo(L-Pro-L-Xxx) epimerized to cyclo(D-Pro-L-Xxx), while cyclo(L-Pro-D-Xxx) did not change.
