Bioorthogonal fluorogenic reactions serve as enabling tools in research and biotechnology. Herein we describe fluorogenic conjugations of semicarbazide with coumarin derivatives that incorporate a 2-acetylphenylboronic acid motif. These designed coumarins rapidly conjugate with semicarbazide to give diazaborine products with significantly enhanced fluorescence. To demonstrate potential applications of this fluorogenic reaction, we synthesized a semicarbazide-presenting amino acid d-Dap-Scz, whic ...[more]
