Dynamic Control of Nucleic Acids Self‐Assembly and Expression Using Photoswitches

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
We review here the recent progress made in the design of molecular photoswitches, and highlight their implementation for the dynamic control over nucleic acids self‐assembly and expression. ABSTRACT Synthetic nucleic acids have become readily available and now constitute versatile building blocks in materials science—where they can be used to engineer ...

Strain Release of 1‐Azabicyclo[1.1.0]butanes as a Gateway to Highly Functionalized Azetidines: New Strategies and Structural Motifs

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Over the past decade, the interest in azetidines has continuously risen, by virtue of their highly appealing pharmaceutical properties. Monocyclic, spirocyclic, and bridged azetidines can be accessed by leveraging 1‐azabicyclo[1.1.0]butanes as precursors.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Well‐Defined M6P(n)‐Modified Glycopeptides for Targeted Protein Degradation

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
A synthetic methodology has been developed to prepare multifunctional M6P and M6Pn ligands of different valency. The glycopeptides were conjugated to cetuximab and then examined to mediate cellular uptake of fluorescently labeled EGFRvIII. Only cetuximab modified by glycopeptides having 3 or 6 M6P or M6Pn residues demonstrated greater uptake.

Flipping the Card With Enantiodivergent Organocatalysis

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
This minireview elaborates on recent organocatalytic strategies for achieving enantiodivergence—the ability to access both product enantiomers using a single chiral catalyst. It highlights how achiral stimuli, such as solvent polarity and chemical additives, along with minimal catalyst modifications, trigger stereochemical inversions in reactions ...

Late‐Stage Modification of Halotryptophan‐Containing Peptides Via Negishi Cross‐Coupling

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Negishi cross‐coupling provides access to the late‐stage functionalization of bromotryptophan‐containing peptides under comparatively mild conditions and is applicable to a range of peptide substrates in the investigated model systems. The examined alkyl iodides and variation of N‐terminal residues demonstrate the feasibility of the transformation in a

FLP Mediated Conversion of Difluorobenzylalkynes to Fluoroallenyl Oniums via an SN1’ Pathway

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) selective C‒F activation of difluorobenzylalkynes allows the formation of fluoroallenic oniums via an SN1’ substitution pathway. The fluoroallenic onium salts are synthetic precursors that allow subsequent functionalization at allenic and onium positions.

Organocatalytic Formal (3+2+1)‐Cycloaddition of Allenoates, Michael Acceptors, and Carbaldehydes

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The use of secondary amine Lewis base organocatalysts allows for the unprecedented activation of allenoates for formal (3+2+1)‐cycloadditions with Michael acceptors and aromatic carbaldehydes. ABSTRACT Employing secondary amines as covalently interacting Lewis basic organocatalysts allows for the activation of electron‐deficient allenes (allenoates ...

Stereoretentive Nucleophilic Aromatic Substitution Accesses Atropisomeric 4‐Amino‐N‐Arylquinolinium Salts

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Quinolin‐4‐ones were converted to chloroquinolinium salts, allowing formation of axially chiral aminoquinolinium salts via an enantioretentive SNAr reaction with a variety of amine nucleophiles. The salts have a high rotational barrier, with a racemization half‐life of ∼1000s of years.

Fluorogenic Sydnones for Bioorthogonal Labeling of DNA

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Conjugates of sydnones with cyanine‐styryl dyes combine bioorthogonal reactivity with fluorogenicity. The reactivity with bicyclo[6.1.0]non‐4‐yne (BCN)‐modified DNA showed second‐order rate constants of up to k2 = 2,300 M−1s−1 and fluorescence turn‐on by one magnitude of order.
