A Versatile Catalyst-Free Perfluoroaryl Azide-Aldehyde-Amine Conjugation Reaction.

ABSTRACT: A tri-component reaction, involving an electrophilically-activated perfluoroaryl azide, an enolizable aldehyde and an amine, reacts readily at room temperature without any catalysts in solvents including aqueous conditions to yield a stable amidine conjugate. The versatility of this reaction is demonstrated in the conjugation of an amino acid without prior protection of the carboxyl group, and in the synthesize antibiotic-nanoparticle conjugates.

Perfluoroaryl Azide Staudinger Reaction: A Fast and Bioorthogonal Reaction.

Project description:We report a fast Staudinger reaction between perfluoroaryl azides (PFAAs) and aryl phosphines, which occurs readily under ambient conditions. A rate constant as high as 18?m-1 ?s-1 was obtained between methyl 4-azido-2,3,5,6-tetrafluorobenzoate and methyl 2-(diphenylphosphanyl)benzoate in CD3 CN/D2 O. Furthermore, the iminophosphorane product was stable toward hydrolysis and aza-phosphonium ylide reactions. This PFAA Staudinger reaction proved to be an excellent bioothorgonal reaction. PFAA-derivatized mannosamine and galactosamine were successfully transformed into cell-surface glycans and efficiently labeled with phosphine-derivatized fluorophore-conjugated bovine serum albumin.

Effective microwave-assisted approach to 1,2,3-triazolobenzodiazepinones via tandem Ugi reaction/catalyst-free intramolecular azide-alkyne cycloaddition.

Project description:A novel catalyst-free synthetic approach to 1,2,3-triazolobenzodiazepinones has been developed and optimized. The Ugi reaction of 2-azidobenzaldehyde, various amines, isocyanides, and acids followed by microwave-assisted intramolecular azide-alkyne cycloaddition (IAAC) gave a series of target heterocyclic compounds in moderate to excellent yields. Surprisingly, the normally required ruthenium-based catalysts were found to not affect the IAAC, only making isolation of the target compounds harder while the microwave-assisted catalyst-free conditions were effective for both terminal and non-terminal alkynes.

New Alkyne and Amine Linkers for Versatile Multiple Conjugation of Oligonucleotides.

Project description:Oligonucleotide (ON) conjugates are increasingly important tools for various molecular diagnostics, nanotechnological applications, and for the development of nucleic acid-based therapies. Multiple labeling of ONs can further equip ON-conjugates and provide improved or additional tailored properties. Typically, the preparation of ON multiconjugates involves additional synthetic steps and/or manipulations in post-ON assembly. This report describes the simplified methodology allowing for multiple labeling of ONs on a solid support and is compatible with phosphodiester as well as phosphorothioate (PS) ONs. The current approach utilizes two novel alkyne- and amino-functionalized linker phosphoramidites that can be readily synthesized from a common aminodiol intermediate in three steps. The combination of new linkers provides orthogonal functionalities, which allow for multiple attachments of similar or varied moieties. The linkers are incorporated into ONs during automated solid-phase ON synthesis, and the conjugation with functional entities is achieved by either amide bond formation or by copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). The versatility of the approach is demonstrated by the synthesis of 5'-site ON multiconjugates with small molecules, peptides, and fatty acids as well as in the preparation of an internal peptide-ON conjugate.

A fluorogenic probe for the catalyst-free detection of azide-tagged molecules.

Project description:Fluorogenic reactions in which non- or weakly fluorescent reagents produce highly fluorescent products can be exploited to detect a broad range of compounds including biomolecules and materials. We describe a modified dibenzocyclooctyne that under catalyst-free conditions undergoes fast strain-promoted cycloadditions with azides to yield strongly fluorescent triazoles. The cycloaddition products are more than 1000-fold brighter compared to the starting cyclooctyne, exhibit large Stokes shift, and can be excited above 350 nm, which is required for many applications. Quantum mechanical calculations indicate that the fluorescence increase upon triazole formation is due to large differences in oscillator strengths of the S(0) ↔ S(1) transitions in the planar C(2v)-symmetric starting material compared to the symmetry-broken and nonplanar cycloaddition products. The new fluorogenic probe was successfully employed for labeling of proteins modified by an azide moiety.

Sequential "click" - "photo-click" cross-linker for catalyst-free ligation of azide-tagged substrates.

Project description:Heterobifunctional linker allows for selective catalyst-free ligation of two different azide-tagged substrates via strained-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC). The linker contains an azadibenzocyclooctyne (ADIBO) moiety on one end and a cyclopropenone-masked dibenzocyclooctyne (photo-DIBO) group on the other. The first azide-derivatized substrate reacts only at the ADIBO end of the linker as the photo-DIBO moiety is azide-inert. After the completion of the first SPAAC step, photo-DIBO is activated by brief exposure to 350 nm light from a fluorescent UV lamp. The unmasked DIBO group then reacts with the second azide-tagged substrate. Both click reactions are fast (k = 0.4 and 0.07 M(-1) s(-1), respectively) and produce quantitative yield of ligation in organic solvents or aqueous solutions. The utility of the new cross-linker has been demonstrated by conjugation of azide functionalized bovine serum albumin (azido-BSA) with azido-fluorescein and by the immobilization of the latter protein on azide-derivatized silica beads. The BSA-bead linker was designed to incorporate hydrolytically labile fragment, which permits release of protein under the action of dilute acid. UV activation of the second click reaction permits spatiotemporal control of the ligation process.

Versatile Phosphate Diester-Based Flame Retardant Vitrimers via Catalyst-Free Mixed Transesterification.

Project description:We herein report a new vitrimer system integrated with UV curability, recyclability, and flame retardancy. Energy-efficiency, sustainability, and safety have been required features for next-generation polymer materials. Various attempts have been made to endow thermoset polymers with rapid prototyping capacity, recyclability, and flame retardancy. Thermoset vitrimers based on covalent adaptable networks (CANs) are recyclable and remoldable but are generally not UV curable or flame retardant. Here, we present a conceptually novel option to achieve fast exchange reactions in CANs via catalyst-free mixed transesterification of a UV curable phosphate diester-based acrylate cross-linker. In this system, the phosphate diesters serve as reversible covalent bonds, hydrogen bonding ligands, and flame-retardant structures, while acrylate groups serve as UV curable units as well as transesterification collaborators. After the facile UV curing, an intrinsic flame-retardant and mechanically strong dynamic network was achieved due to abundant hydrogen bonds between P-OH and C═O structures. Additionally, this highly cross-linked network exhibited an attractive recyclability even at temperatures lower than Tg. This phosphate diester-based mixed transesterification concept represents an efficient approach for developing multifunctional vitrimers and can also be generalized into other thermally cured polymer systems.

Amine-to-Azide Conversion on Native RNA via Metal-Free Diazotransfer Opens New Avenues for RNA Manipulations.

Project description:A major challenge in the field of RNA chemistry is the identification of selective and quantitative conversion reactions on RNA that can be used for tagging and any other RNA tool development. Here, we introduce metal-free diazotransfer on native RNA containing an aliphatic primary amino group using the diazotizing reagent fluorosulfuryl azide (FSO2 N3 ). The reaction provides the corresponding azide-modified RNA in nearly quantitatively yields without affecting the nucleobase amino groups. The obtained azido-RNA can then be further processed utilizing well-established bioortho-gonal reactions, such as azide-alkyne cycloadditions (Click) or Staudinger ligations. We exemplify the robustness of this approach for the synthesis of peptidyl-tRNA mimics and for the pull-down of 3-(3-amino-3-carboxypropyl)uridine (acp3 U)- and lysidine (k2 C)-containing tRNAs of an Escherichia coli tRNA pool isolated from cellular extracts. Our approach therefore adds a new dimension to the targeted chemical manipulation of diverse RNA species.

Light-induced primary amines and o-nitrobenzyl alcohols cyclization as a versatile photoclick reaction for modular conjugation.

Project description:The advent of click chemistry has had a profound impact on many fields and fueled a need for reliable reactions to expand the click chemistry toolkit. However, developing new systems to fulfill the click chemistry criteria remains highly desirable yet challenging. Here, we report the development of light-induced primary amines and o-nitrobenzyl alcohols cyclization (PANAC) as a photoclick reaction via primary amines as direct click handle, to rapid and modular functionalization of diverse small molecules and native biomolecules. With intrinsic advantages of temporal control, good biocompatibility, reliable chemoselectivity, excellent efficiency, readily accessible reactants, operational simplicity and mild conditions, the PANAC photoclick is robust for direct diversification of pharmaceuticals and biorelevant molecules, lysine-specific modifications of unprotected peptides and native proteins in vitro, temporal profiling of endogenous kinases and organelle-targeted labeling in living systems. This strategy provides a versatile platform for organic synthesis, bioconjugation, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology and materials science.

A practical and catalyst-free trifluoroethylation reaction of amines using trifluoroacetic acid.

Project description:Amines are a fundamentally important class of biologically active compounds and the ability to manipulate their physicochemical properties through the introduction of fluorine is of paramount importance in medicinal chemistry. Current synthesis methods for the construction of fluorinated amines rely on air and moisture sensitive reagents that require special handling or harsh reductants that limit functionality. Here we report practical, catalyst-free, reductive trifluoroethylation reactions of free amines exhibiting remarkable functional group tolerance. The reactions proceed in conventional glassware without rigorous exclusion of either moisture or oxygen, and use trifluoroacetic acid as a stable and inexpensive fluorine source. The new methods provide access to a wide range of medicinally relevant functionalized tertiary ?-fluoroalkylamine cores, either through direct trifluoroethylation of secondary amines or via a three-component coupling of primary amines, aldehydes and trifluoroacetic acid. A reduction of in situ-generated silyl ester species is proposed to account for the reductive selectivity observed.
