Acetylene as a Dicarbene Equivalent for Gold(I) Catalysis: Total Synthesis of Waitziacuminone in One Step.

ABSTRACT: The gold(I)-catalyzed reaction of acetylene gas with alkenes leads to (Z,Z)-1,4-disubstituted 1,3-butadienes and biscyclopropanes depending on the donor ligand on gold(I). Acetylene was generated in situ from calcium carbide and water in a user-friendly procedure. Reaction of acetylene with 1,5-dienes gives rise stereoselectively to tricyclo[5.1.0.0^2,4 ]octanes. This novel double cyclopropanation has been applied to the one step total synthesis of the natural product waitziacuminone from acetylene and geranyl acetone.

One-pot synthesis of fused pyrroles through a key gold-catalysis-triggered cascade.

Project description:A two-step, one-pot synthesis of fused pyrroles is realized by firstly condensing an N-alkynylhydroxammonium salt with a readily enolizable ketone under mild basic conditions and then subjecting the reaction mixture to a gold catalyst, which triggers a cascade reaction involving a facile initial [3.3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of the gold-catalysis product, that is, an N,O-dialkenylhydroxamine. The reaction provides a facile access to polycyclic pyrroles in moderate to good yields.

One-Step Synthesis of 2,5-Diaminoimidazoles and Total Synthesis of Methylglyoxal-Derived Imidazolium Crosslink (MODIC).

Project description:Here we describe a general method for the synthesis of 2,5-diaminoimidazoles, which involves a thermal reaction between ?-aminoketones and substituted guanylhydrazines without the need for additives. As one of the few known ways to access the 2,5-diaminoimidazole motif, our method greatly expands the number of reported diaminoimidazoles and further supports our previous observations that these compounds spontaneously adopt the non-aromatic 4(H) tautomer. The reaction works successfully on both cyclic and acyclic amino ketone starting materials, as well as a range of substituted guanylhydrazines. Following optimization, the method was applied to the efficient synthesis of the advanced glycation end product (AGE) methylglyoxal-derived imidazolium crosslink (MODIC). We expect that this method will enable rapid access to a variety of biologically important 2,5-diaminoimidazole-containing products.

Fast microwave heating-based one-step synthesis of DNA and RNA modified gold nanoparticles.

Project description:DNA/RNA-gold nanoparticle (DNA/RNA-AuNP) nanoprobes have been widely employed for nanobiotechnology applications. Here, we discover that both thiolated and non-thiolated DNA/RNA can be efficiently attached to AuNPs to achieve high-stable spherical nucleic acid (SNA) within minutes under a domestic microwave (MW)-assisted heating-dry circumstance. Further studies show that for non-thiolated DNA/RNA the conjugation is poly (T/U) tag dependent. Spectroscopy, test strip hybridization, and loading counting experiments indicate that low-affinity poly (T/U) tag mediates the formation of a standing-up conformation, which is distributed in the outer layer of SNA structure. In further application studies, CRISPR/Cas9-sgRNA (136 bp), SARS-CoV-2 RNA fragment (1278 bp), and rolling circle amplification (RCA) DNA products (over 1000 bp) can be successfully attached on AuNPs, which overcomes the routine methods in long-chain nucleic acid-AuNP conjugation, exhibiting great promise in biosensing and nucleic acids delivery applications. Current heating-dry strategy has improved traditional DNA/RNA-AuNP conjugation methods in simplicity, rapidity, cost, and universality.

Gold-catalyzed one-step practical synthesis of oxetan-3-ones from readily available propargylic alcohols.

Project description:A general solution for the synthesis of various oxetan-3-ones is developed. This reaction uses readily available propargylic alcohols as substrates and proceeds without the exclusion of moisture or air ("open flask"). Notably, oxetan-3-one, a highly valuable substrate for drug discovery, can be prepared in one step from propargyl alcohol in a fairly good yield. The facile formation of the strained oxetane ring provides strong support for the intermediacy of alpha-oxo gold carbenes. This safe and efficient generation of gold carbenes via intermolecular alkyne oxidation offers a potentially general entry into alpha-oxo metal carbene chemistry without using hazardous diazo ketones.

One-Step Synthesis of [<sup>18</sup>F]Aromatic Electrophile Prosthetic Groups via Organic Photoredox Catalysis.

Project description:To avoid the harsh conditions that are oftentimes adopted in direct radiofluorination reactions, conjugation of bioactive ligands with 18F-labeled prosthetic groups has become an important strategy to construct novel PET agents under mild conditions when the ligands are structurally sensitive. Prosthetic groups with [18F]fluoroarene motifs are especially appealing because of their stability in physiological environments. However, their preparation can be intricate, often requiring multistep radiosynthesis with functional group conversions to prevent the decomposition of unprotected reactive prosthetic groups during the harsh radiofluorination. Here, we report a general and simple method to generate a variety of highly reactive 18F-labeled electrophiles via one-step organophotoredox-mediated radiofluorination. The method benefits from high step-economy, reaction efficiency, functional group tolerance, and easily accessible precursors. The obtained prosthetic groups have been successfully applied in PET agent construction and subsequent imaging studies, thereby demonstrating the feasibility of this synthetic method in promoting imaging and biomedical research.

One-step, Rapid and Green Synthesis of Multifunctional Gold Nanoparticles for Tumor-Targeted Imaging and Therapy.

Project description:Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) have always been used as doxorubicin (DOX) transport vectors for tumor diagnosis and therapy; however, the synthesis process of these vectors is to prepare GNPs via chemical reduction method firstly, followed by conjugation with DOX or specific peptides, so these meth•ods faced some common problems including multiple steps, high cost, time consuming, complicated preparation, and post-processing. Here, we present a one-step strategy to prepare the DOX-conjugated GNPs on the basis of DOX's chemical constitution for the first time. Moreover, we prepare a multifunctional GNPs (DRN-GNPs) with a one-step method by the aid of the reductive functional groups possessed by DOX, RGD peptides, and nuclear localization peptides (NLS), which only needs 30 min. The results of scattering images and cell TEM studies indicated that the DRN-GNPs could target the Hela cells' nucleus. The tumor inhibition rates of DRN-GNPs via tumor and tail vein injection of nude mice were 66.7% and 57.7%, respectively, which were significantly enhanced compared to control groups. One step synthesis of multifunctional GNPs not only saves time, materials, but also it is in line with the development direction of green chemistry, and it would lay the foundation for large-scale applications within the near future. Our results suggested that the fabrication strategy is efficient, and our prepared DRN-GNPs possess good colloidal stability in the physiological system; they are a potentially contrast agent and an efficient DOX transport vector for cervical cancer diagnosis and therapy.

One-step synthesis of gold and silver non-spherical nanoparticles mediated by Eosin Methylene Blue agar.

Project description:Nowadays, there are several approaches reported to accomplish the green synthesis of metal nanoparticles by using bacterial and fungi supernatants or by-products generated by these microorganisms. Therefore, agars as solely reductive regents have started to be used in order to obtain metal nanoparticles. This paper shows the results of the synthesis of gold and silver nanoparticles with different morphology, mainly triangular and truncated triangular, using Eosin Methylene Blue (EMB) agar as reducing agent. To control the reaction process, the necessary activation energy for the reducer was provided by three different techniques: microwave radiation, using a domestic microwave oven, ultraviolet radiation, and heating on a conventional plate. The evolution of the reduction process and stability of the samples was performed by ultraviolet visible spectroscopy. Morphology was carefully analyzed using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). A one step synthesis for gold and silver nanoparticles was optimized with an eco-friendly and economic process.

11-Step Total Synthesis of Araiosamines.

Project description:A concise route to a small family of exotic marine alkaloids known as the araiosamines has been developed, and their absolute configuration has been assigned. The dense array of functionality, high polarity, and rich stereochemistry coupled with equilibrating topologies present an unusual challenge for chemical synthesis and an opportunity for innovation. Key steps involve the use of a new reagent for guanidine installation, a remarkably selective C-H functionalization, and a surprisingly simple final step that intersects a presumed biosynthetic intermediate. Synthetic araiosamines were shown to exhibit potency against Gram-positive and -negative bacteria despite a contrary report of no activity.
