A PtCl(4)-catalyzed hydroamination-triggered cyclization strategy to access biologically interesting N-containing heterocycles such as pyrrolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines, indolo[1,2-a]quinoxalines, and indolo[3,2-c]quinolines is described. The reaction makes use of aminoaromatics such as 1-(2-aminophenyl)pyrroles, N-(2-aminophenyl)indoles, 2-(2-aminophenyl)indoles, and alkynes having a tethered hydroxyl group. Mechanistically, the reaction is very appealing since it involves multiple catalytic cycles catalyzed by a single metal catalyst PtCl(4). We observed a remarkable enhancement of the rate when reactions were run under microwave-assisted conditions.

Indole-fused pyridines are an important motif in pharmaceuticals and functional molecules. A visible-light induced Ru(bpy)Cl·6HO catalyzed radical cascade sulfonylation/cyclization strategy for the synthesis of indole-fused pyridine derivatives was developed. Diverse indole-fused pyridines bearing different functional groups were obtained in moderate to good yields.

1,4-Azaborine-based arenes are promising electroluminescent emitters with thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF), offering narrow emission spectra and high quantum yields due to a multi-resonance (MR) effect. However, their practical application is constrained by their limited operational stability. This study investigates the degradation mechanism of MR-TADF molecules.

(Hetero)polyaryl amines are extensively prevalent in pharmaceuticals, fine chemicals, and materials but the intricate and varied nature of their structures severely restricts their synthesis. Here, we present a selective multicomponent cycloaromatization of structurally and functionally diverse amine substrates for the general and modular synthesis of (hetero)polyaryl amines through copper(I)-catalysis. This strategy directly constructs a remarkable range of amino group-functionalized (hetero)polyaryl frameworks (194 examples), including naphthalene, binaphthalene, phenanthren, benzothiophene, dibenzothiophene, benzofuran, dibenzofuran, quinoline, isoquinoline, quinazoline, and others, which are challenging or impossible to obtain using alternative methods.

We here report an efficient DNA-compatible furan-thiol-amine reaction for macrocyclization and late-stage amine transformation. This reaction, conducted under mild conditions, enables the facile cyclization of DNA-conjugated linear peptides into thiopyrrole-grafted macrocycles regardless of ring size or side-chain modification with good to excellent conversion yields. Additionally, this strategy was employed for the late-stage transformation of terminal amines, serving as critical intermediates in the construction of DNA-encoded peptide libraries.

Article Synopsis
- Cyclization can improve the properties of umami peptides, and this study is the first to explore cyclic forms of these peptides.
- Researchers generated cyclic and linear peptide structures and analyzed their interactions with umami receptors, identifying three promising candidates through docking and clustering.
- Sensory evaluation showed that cyclization significantly enhanced the umami intensity of one peptide (DPLRGGY), while another (RGEPNND) did not benefit, with molecular analysis revealing structural changes as key factors in these differences.
