(12) Four independent beta-glycerophosphates commonly act as two types of bidentate ligands, where one is the coordination to the calcium ion by the glycerol O(1) and phosphate O(22) atoms, and the other by the phosphate O(22) and O(23) atoms, thus forming the calcium coordination of a distorted square plane, respectively.
(13) For this purpose, bidentate ligands as hydroxamate and N-hydroxy-N-formylamino groups were selected as highly potent metal coordinating agents and introduced on Phe-Gly and Phe-Ala related structures.
