processes are blocked. Interestingly, using HPLC and NMR, we were also able to unravelan intermediate state in the interconversion process, namely the racemate of the trans/cisand cis/trans configurational isomers. This phenomenon was further, albeit indirectly,demonstrated by photoisomerization of the chiral dipeptide based on one azobenzeneresiduewith H-L-Leu-OMe, which afforded two diastereomeric intermediates, as detectedby HPLC and verified by NMR. We are currently extending this study to more <strong>com</strong>plexmolecular systems, where the two amino acids, appropriately N α -functionalized, are boundto various type of nanoparticles.References1.
