In recent years, oligopeptides have been developed as efficient catalysts for a range of important organic reactions, including acylation, silylation, oxidation, ester hydrolysis and aldol reactions. With many peptidic catalysts, high yields and chiral induction can be achieved under mild reaction conditions. Discovery and optimization of these catalysts typically involves the testing of compound collections and is therefore strongly linked to advances in combinatorial screening methods. This review summarizes recent developments in the field of catalytically active short-chain peptides, highlighting the combinatorial techniques that have facilitated their discovery.
