A thorough experimental and computational study on the conformational properties of (S)-indoline-2-carboxylic acid derivatives has been conducted. Methyl (S)-1-acetylindoline-2-carboxylate, both a mimetic of proline and phenylalanine, shows a remarkable tendency toward the cis amide isomer when dissolved in polar solvents. This behavior is opposite to the general preference of proline for the trans isomer, making indoline-2-carboxylic acid a good candidate for the design of different secondary structures and new materials.π-S
