Precision Chemistry for Protein Lysine Modification

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Selective modification of lysine residues is challenging due to their similar intrinsic reactivity. Inspired by enzymatic recognition, ligand‐guided electrophiles enable site‐selective labeling and functionalization, while ligand‐guided catalyses achieve regioselective installation of bio‐relevant post‐translational modifications.

Quarternization of 3-azido-1-propyne oligomers obtained by copper(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition polymerization

Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2015
3-Azido-1-propyne oligomer (oligoAP) samples, prepared by copper(I)-catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) polymerization, were quarternized quantitatively with methyl iodide in sulfolane at 60 °C to obtain soluble oligomers.

Extracellularly Activatable Conjugates of RGD Peptidomimetics and Cryptophycin for αVβ3‐Targeted Cancer Therapy

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Integrin αVβ3‐targeting small‐molecule drug conjugates (SMDCs) were synthesized by conjugating a cryptophycin payload through a neutrophil elastase‐cleavable NPV‐PABC linker. RGD peptidomimetic and linker epimers served as controls for targeting and enzymatic cleavage, and the resulting conjugates displayed subnanomolar cytotoxicity in vitro.

Peptide Marriages: Modular Assembly of Multi‐Agonist Therapeutics

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A modular polyethylene glycol (PEG) scaffold enables rapid assembly of dual peptide agonists using strain‐promoted azide–alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) and copper‐catalysed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) and amylin agonists were combined with controlled valency, yielding low‐picomolar activity and receptor‐selective ...

Mild C─F Activation of Azido(per)Fluoroalkanes

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Mild and selective activation of C(sp3)–F bonds in azido(per)fluoroalkanes using thiolates was developed, leading to novel functionalized azides. The reaction is initiated by nucleophilic attack of the sulfur atom to the terminal nitrogen of the azido group, followed by fluoride ion elimination.

Metal‐Ion Regulated Light‐Free Z→E Isomerization of Azobenzene Glycomacrocycle

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Metal ion‐catalyzed Z→E isomerization of photoswitchable azobenzene glycomacrocycle: A new azobenzene‐based glycomacrocycle is capable of forming a 1:1 complex with divalent metal ions in both E‐ and Z‐isomers. The complexes undergo light‐free Z→E isomerization in a timescale spanning from seconds to weeks.

Tribochemical Surface Modification of Silicon

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Mechanical scribing activates silicon surfaces by generating reactive sites that spontaneously graft alcohol‐, thiol‐, and alkyne‐terminated molecules under ambient conditions. Within 10 s, high‐coverage, electroactive organic layers form without light, heat, or applied voltage, offering a rapid tribochemical route to functional silicon interfaces for ...

Auto‐Click Synthesis of a Copper(I)–N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Porous Organic Polymer and Its Transmetalation to Palladium(II) for Azide–Alkyne Cycloaddition and Cross‐Coupling Reactions

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
An azide‐functionalized Cu(I)–NHC complex acts as both a monomer and a catalyst in an auto‐click polymerization, yielding a Cu(I)–NHC polymer that can be transmetalated to Pd(II). The two materials catalyze copper‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition, C–N/C–O coupling, and Suzuki–Miyaura reactions, while copper reloading restores activity.

Exploring the Anticancer Activity of Ruthenium(II)–Arene and Copper(I) Complexes Bearing N‐Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands Containing Azido, Pyridinium, and Ethisterone‐Derived Triazole Groups

European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
A versatile library of backbone‐functionalized N‐heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands was developed and efficiently converted into Cu(I) and Ru(II) NHC complexes, demonstrating that ligand functionalization strongly modulates anticancer activity, with Cu(I)–NHC species showing potent and selective antiproliferative effects against ovarian and breast ...
