Abstract

The present invention is concerned with tetrahydronaphthalene derivatives which are mimics of domains of peptides or proteins which can interact with other proteins or with DNA or RNA through .alpha.-helical conformation, said tetrahydronaphthalene derivatives having the formulae: ##STR1## are valuable aids in the determination of biologically active peptide sequences and are accordingly so-called "research tools". They are, however, also potentially suitable as medicaments.
