Microwave‐assisted RCM for the synthesis of carbocyclic peptides

Abstract
Microwave irradiation dramatically improves the efficiency of ring closing metathesis (RCM) reactions of resin-attached peptides and the technology is illustrated by the highly selective synthesis of dicarba analogues of α-conotoxin IMI.
