Abstract: ?-Hairpin peptidomimetics of the general formula Cyclo(-Xaa1-Xaa2-Xaa3-Xaa4-Xaa5-Xaa6-Xaa7-Xaa8-Xaa9-Xaa10-Xaa11-Xaa12-Xaa13-Xaa14-), enantiomers and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, with Xaa1-Xaa14 being amino acid residues of certain types which are defined in the description and the claims, have anti-infective activity, e.g. to selectively inhibit the growth of or to kill microorganisms such as Bacillus subtilis and/or Shigella boydii. They can be used as medicaments to treat or prevent infections or as disinfectants for foodstuffs, cosmetics, medicaments or other nutrient-containing materials. These peptidomimetics can be manufactured by a process which is based on a mixed solid- and solution phase synthetic strategy.
