Exceptionally rapid oxime and hydrazone formation promoted by catalytic amine buffers with low toxicity.

ABSTRACT: Hydrazone and oxime bond formation between ?-nucleophiles (e.g. hydrazines, alkoxy-amines) and carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) is convenient and is widely applied in multiple fields of research. While the reactants are simple, a substantial drawback is the relatively slow reaction at neutral pH. Here we describe a novel molecular strategy for accelerating these reactions, using bifunctional buffer compounds that not only control pH but also catalyze the reaction. The buffers can be employed at pH 5-9 (5-50 mM) and accelerate reactions by several orders of magnitude, yielding second-order rate constants of >10 M^-1 s^-1. Effective bifunctional amines include 2-(aminomethyl)imidazoles and N,N-dimethylethylenediamine. Unlike previous diaminobenzene catalysts, the new buffer amines are found to have low toxicity to human cells, and can be used to promote reactions in cellular applications.

Fast alpha nucleophiles: structures that undergo rapid hydrazone/oxime formation at neutral pH.

Project description:Hydrazones and oximes are widely useful structures for conjugate formation in chemistry and biology, but their formation can be slow at neutral pH. Kinetics studies were performed for a range of structurally varied hydrazines, and a surprisingly large variation in reaction rate was observed. Structures that undergo especially rapid reactions were identified, enabling reaction rates that rival orthogonal cycloaddition-based conjugation chemistries.

Water-soluble organocatalysts for hydrazone and oxime formation.

Project description:The formation of oximes and hydrazones is widely used in chemistry and biology as a molecular conjugation strategy for achieving ligation, attachment, and bioconjugation. However, the relatively slow rate of reaction has hindered its utility. Here, we report that simple, commercially available anthranilic acids and aminobenzoic acids act as superior catalysts for hydrazone and oxime formation, speeding the reaction considerably over the traditional aniline-catalyzed reaction at neutral pH. This efficient nucleophilic catalysis, involving catalyst-imine intermediates, allows rapid hydrazone/oxime formation even with relatively low concentrations of the two reactants. The most efficient catalysts are found to be 5-methoxyanthranilic acid and 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid; we find that they can enhance rates by factors of as much as 1-2 orders of magnitude over the aniline-catalyzed reaction. Evidence based on a range of differently substituted arylamines suggests that the ortho-carboxylate group in the anthranilate catalysts serves to aid in intramolecular proton transfer during imine and hydrazone formation.

Rapid oxime and hydrazone ligations with aromatic aldehydes for biomolecular labeling.

Project description:A high-yielding and rapid chemoselective ligation approach is presented that uses aniline catalysis to activate aromatic aldehydes toward two amine nucleophiles, namely, 6-hydrazinopyridyl and aminooxyacetyl groups. The rates of these ligations are resolved for model reactions with unprotected peptides. The resulting hydrazone and oxime conjugates are attained under ambient conditions with rate constants of 10(1)-10(3) M(-1) s(-1). These rate constants exceed those of current chemoselective ligation chemistries and enable efficient labeling of peptides and proteins at low muM concentrations, at neutral pH, without using a large excess of one of the components. The utility of the approach is demonstrated by the p-fluorobenzylation of human serum albumin and by the fluorescent labeling of an unprotected peptide with Alexa Fluor 488.

New organocatalyst scaffolds with high activity in promoting hydrazone and oxime formation at neutral pH.

Project description:The discovery of two new classes of catalysts for hydrazone and oxime formation in water at neutral pH, namely 2-aminophenols and 2-(aminomethyl)benzimidazoles, is reported. Kinetics studies in aqueous solutions at pH 7.4 revealed rate enhancements up to 7-fold greater than with classic aniline catalysis. 2-(Aminomethyl)benzimidazoles were found to be effective catalysts with otherwise challenging aryl ketone substrates.

Fluorescence quenchers for hydrazone and oxime orthogonal bioconjugation.

Project description:We describe the synthesis and properties of new fluorescence quenchers containing aldehyde, hydrazine, and aminooxy groups, allowing convenient bioconjugation as oximes or hydrazones. Conjugation to oligonucleotides proceeded in high yield with aniline as catalyst. Kinetics studies of conjugation show that, under optimal conditions, a hydrazine or aminooxy quencher can react with aldehyde-modified DNA to form a stable hydrazone or oxime adduct in as little as five minutes. The resulting quencher-containing DNAs were assessed for their ability to quench the emission of fluorescein in labeled complements and compared to the commercially available dabcyl and Black Hole Quencher 2 (BHQ2), which were conjugated as phosphoramidites. Results show that the new quenchers possess slightly different absorbance properties compared to dabcyl and are as efficient as the commercial quenchers in quenching fluorescein emission. Hydrazone-based quenchers were further successfully incorporated into molecular beacons and shown to give high signal to background ratios in single nucleotide polymorphism detection in vitro. Finally, aminooxy and hydrazine quenchers were applied to quenching of an aldehyde-containing fluorophore associated with living cells, demonstrating cellular quenching within one hour.

A highly efficient catalyst for oxime ligation and hydrazone-oxime exchange suitable for bioconjugation.

Project description:Imine-based reactions are useful for a wide range of bioconjugation applications. Although aniline is known to catalyze the oxime ligation reaction under physiological conditions, it suffers from slow reaction kinetics, specifically when a ketone is being used or when hydrazone-oxime exchange is performed. Here, we report on the discovery of a new catalyst that is up to 15 times more efficient than aniline. That catalyst, m-phenylenediamine (mPDA), was initially used to analyze the kinetics of oxime ligation on aldehyde- and ketone-containing small molecules. While mPDA is only modestly more effective than aniline when used in equal concentrations (~2-fold), its much greater aqueous solubility relative to aniline allows it to be used at higher concentrations, resulting in significantly more efficient catalysis. In the context of protein labeling, it was first used to site-specifically label an aldehyde-functionalized protein through oxime ligation, and its kinetics were compared to reaction with aniline. Next, a protein was labeled with an aldehyde-containing substrate in crude cell lysate, captured with hydrazide-functionalized beads and then the kinetics of immobilized protein release via hydrazone-oxime exchange were analyzed. Our results show that mPDA can release and label 15 times more protein than aniline can in 3 h. Then, using the new catalyst, ciliary neurotrophic factor, a protein with therapeutic potential, was successfully labeled with a fluorophore in only 5 min. Finally, a protein containing the unnatural amino acid, p-acetyl phenylalanine, a ketone-containing residue, was prepared and PEGylated efficiently via oxime ligation using mPDA. This new catalyst should have a significant impact on the field of bioconjugation, where oxime ligation and hydrazone-oxime exchange are commonly employed.

SmI2-promoted Reformatsky-type coupling reactions in exceptionally hindered contexts.

Project description:Highly substituted, very hindered enones were synthesized using a two-step procedure that utilizes a diiodosamarium-promoted Reformatsky-type coupling and dehydration using Martin sulfurane. Both alpha-chloro- and alpha-bromoketones were coupled with a variety of carbonyl nucleophiles to form the intermediate beta-hydroxyketones, occurring with excellent diastereoselectivity, favoring the syn isomer (R1=Me). This technique complements other methods and enables the preparation of enones outside of the scope of current olefination methodology.

P-C-Activated Bimetallic Rhodium Xantphos Complexes: Formation and Catalytic Dehydrocoupling of Amine-Boranes.

Project description:{Rh(xantphos)}-based phosphido dimers form by P-C activation of xantphos (4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-9,9-dimethylxanthene) in the presence of amine-boranes. These dimers are active dehydrocoupling catalysts, forming polymeric [H2 BNMeH]n from H3 B⋅NMeH2 and dimeric [H2 BNMe2 ]2 from H3 B⋅NMe2 H at low catalyst loadings (0.1 mol %). Mechanistic investigations support a dimeric active species, suggesting that bimetallic catalysis may be possible in amine-borane dehydropolymerization.

Different Modes of Acid-Promoted Cyclooligomerization of 4-(4-Thiosemicarbazido)butan-2-one Hydrazone: 14-Membered versus 28-Membered Polyazamacrocycle Formation.

Project description:Unprecedented self-assembly of a novel 14-membered cyclic bis-thiosemicarbazone or/and a 28-membered cyclic tetrakis-thiosemicarbazone upon acid-promoted cyclooligomerization of 4-(4-thiosemicarbazido)butan-2-one hydrazone has been discovered. A thorough study of the influence of various factors on the direction of macrocyclization provided the optimal conditions for the highly selective formation of each of the macrocycles in excellent yields. Plausible pathways for macrocyclizations have been discussed. The macrocycle precursor was prepared by the reaction of readily available 4-isothiocyanatobutan-2-one with an excess of hydrazine.

Protein nanopatterns by oxime bond formation.

Project description:Patterning proteins on the nanoscale is important for applications in biology and medicine. As feature sizes are reduced, it is critical that immobilization strategies provide site-specific attachment of the biomolecules. In this study, oxime chemistry was exploited to conjugate proteins onto nanometer-sized features. Poly(Boc-aminooxy tetra(ethylene glycol) methacrylate) was synthesized by free radical polymerization. The polymer was patterned onto silicon wafers using an electron beam writer. Trifluoroacetic acid removal of the Boc groups provided the desired aminooxy functionality. In this manner, patterns of concentric squares and contiguous bowtie shapes were fabricated with 150-170-nm wide features. Ubiquitin modified at the N-terminus with an α-ketoamide group and N(ε)-levulinyl lysine-modified bovine serum albumin were subsequently conjugated to the polymer nanopatterns. Protein immobilization was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy. Control studies on protected surfaces and using proteins presaturated with O-methoxyamine indicated that attachment occurred via oxime bond formation.
