Materials and equipment All the chemical reagents and solvents from commercial sources were used without further purification. Coupling reagents and amino acid derivatives were purchased from Matrix Innovation Inc. (Quebec, QC, Canada). Rink Amide AM resin (0.56 mmol/g) was purchased from ChemImpex (Wood Dale, IL, USA). All other reagents and solvents were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Reactions on solid support were performed in filter columns (2 ml) from Roland Vetter Laborbedarf OHG (Ammerbuch, Germany). Flash chromatography was performed on silica gel F60 (230-400 mesh) from SiliCycle (Quebec, QC, Canada). 1 H and 13 C NMR spectra were obtained in CDCl 3, CD 3 OD, (CD 3 ) 2 SO or (CD 3 ) 2 CO as solvent and internal reference on a Bruker AVANCE 400 spectrometer (Billerica, MA, USA). RP-HPLC analyses were conducted on a Shimadzu Prominence instrument (Columbian, MD, USA) using a Phenomenex Kinetex column (4.6 mm x 100 mm, 2.6 µm XB-C 18, 100 Å, 1.8 ml/min) with a 10.5 min gradient from water (0.1% TFA) and CH 3 CN (0.1% TFA) (CH 3 CN 10-100%) and detection at 220 nm and 254 nm. Mass spectrometry was performed on a Waters Synapt G2-Si (Quadrupole/TOF) with a Waters UPLC binary pump and FTN injector. The mass spectrometer was operated in High resolution mode. The mass spectrometer calibration was performed with a sodium formate (Sigma) solution and lock-mass correction was performed using a Leucine-enkephaline solution (Waters). Synthesis of tert-butyl (4-aminobutyl) carbamate (1h*) A solution of (Boc) 2 O (9.4 mmol, 0.1 equiv.) in CHCl 3 (50 ml) was added dropwise on 2 h to 1,4- diaminobutane (94.4 mmol) in CHCl 3 (100 ml) and the reaction was stirred overnight. The organic layer was then washed with water (3 x 30 ml) and dried over MgSO 4.

Peptoid and Peptomer synthesis The synthesis of peptoid oligomers 8-11 was performed on Rink amide resin ( 50 mg, 0.56 mmol/g) by standard submonomer or monomer method. Submonomer approach Acylation step: Resin-bound free primary or secondary amines were treated with a mixture of 1.2 M bromoacetic acid in DMF (0.8 ml) and DIC (0.2 ml, 1.27 mmol) for 40 min. The resin was filtered and washed with DMF (5 30 s). Amination step: Resin-bound bromoacetylated oligomers were treated with a solution of 1 M primary amine in DMF (1 ml) for 40 min. The resin was filtered and washed with DMF (5 30 s). These 2 steps were repeated until the desired oligomer was obtained. When the synthesis was completed the resin was washed with DMF (5 30 s) and CH 2 Cl 2 (5 30 s) and dried under vacuum. Insertion of monomers or amino acids on peptoids (8-11) A Fmoc-amino acid or ons-nsg monomer (5a-j or 7a-c) (3 equiv.) was added to a mixture of HATU (3 equiv.) and HOAt (3 equiv.). NMM (6 equiv.) was then added to the mixture and the resulting solution introduced into a syringe containing the elongating oligomer on solid support. The mixture was stirred for 3 h and the evolution of the reaction monitored using the chloranil test. Fmoc group removal The Fmoc protecting group was removed by treating the resin twice with a solution of 20% piperidine in DMF (v/v) for 10 min followed by washing with DMF (5 30 s). ons group cleavage The resin bearing ons-protected oligomers was treated with a solution of p-methoxybenzenethiol (15 equiv) and DBU (20 equiv) in DMF (1 ml) for 10 min at room temperature. The step was repeated and the resin washed with DMF (5 30 s). Cleavage of peptoid and peptomer oligomers from the resin The resin bearing the peptoid oligomers was treated with a cleavage solution composed of TFA/water/TIS (95:2.5:2.5) for 1 h. After filtration the resin was washed with CH 2 Cl 2 (5 ) and the filtrate was evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure. The crude products were precipitated in cold Et 2 O and centrifuged. The supernatant was carefully discarded and this process repeated twice. The residue was dried under vacuum and submitted to HPLC, HRMS and MS/MS analyses. Allyl ester deprotection The resin was swollen in CH 2 Cl 2 for 15 minutes before the introduction of a mixture of Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 (0.5 equiv) and phenylsilane (15 equiv) in CH 2 Cl 2 and stirred for 40 minutes. The step was repeated once and the resin washed with CH 2 Cl 2 (3 30 s), with a solution of 0.5% DIPEA in DMF (3 30 s), with a solution of 0.5% sodium diethyldithiocarbamate trihydrate in DMF (3 30s) and another time with CH 2 Cl 2 (3 30 s). Peptoids cyclisation The resin bearing the free carboxylic acid and the free N-terminus amine was swollen in DMF for 15 min. Then a solution of PyAOP (5 equiv), HOAt (5 equiv), and DIPEA (10 equiv) in DMF was added to the resin and the resulting mixture was stirred for 6 h. Finally, the resin was washed with DMF (5 30 s).

HPLC purification Compounds 8-11 were purified by RP-HPLC on a Vydac 218MS C18 column (22.0 x 250 mm, 300 Å, 10 µm) using 0.1% TFA/H 2 O (A) and 0.1% TFA/CH 3 CN (B), with a linear gradient of 10% to 100% of B for 20 min at 10 ml min -1 and UV detection at 220 nm and 254 nm. The collected fractions were freeze dried to afford the desired peptoid oligomers as white powder. Sequence Table S1.
