In this work, a visible-light-induced oxidative α-alkylation of glycine derivatives with ethers has been developed in the presence of catalytic Eosin Y. Under the blue light of a 3 W LED, a range of α-etherized glycine derivatives, including α-amino esters, α-amino ketones and α-amino amides, were achieved with good to excellent yields and functional group tolerance with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as oxidant at ambient temperature. The operationally easy procedure provides an economical, metal-free, and mild alternative for the synthesis of the α-etherized glycine derivatives.

Joining the fold: A series of peptoids, or oligomers of N-substituted glycines, adopt a novel secondary structure, designated the peptoid ribbon . This fold was stable at short chain lengths and in a variety of solvents (both organic and aqueous), and arose from a primary sequence of peptoid monomers designed to enforce an alternating pattern of cis and trans main-chain amides.
