The peptide is an important class of biological targeting molecule; herein, a new bifunctional octadentate non-macrocyclic H4octapa, tBu4octapa-alkyl-NHS, which is compatible with solid-phase peptide synthesis and thus useful for radiopeptide preparation, has been synthesized. To preserve denticity, the alkyl-N-hydroxylsuccinimide linker was covalently attached to the methylene-carbon on one of the acetate arms, yielding a chiral carbon center. According to density-functional theory (DFT) calculations using [Lu(octapa-alkyl-benzyl-ester)]- as a simulation model, the chirality has minimal effects on the complex geometry; regardless of the S-/R-stereochemistry, DFT calculations revealed two possible geometric isomers, distorted bicapped trigonal antiprism (DBTA) and distorted square antiprism (DSA), due to the asymmetry in the chelator.

The reaction of 2-(6-methyl-2-pyridyl)-1,1-diphenyl-ethanol [HONCH] with Ln(AlMe) (Ln = La, Nd, Y) via a deprotonation/C-H-bond activation sequence gave complexes [ONCH]Ln(AlMe)(AlMe) (Ln = La, Nd, Y) bearing the dianionic tridentate ligand [ONCH]. In contrast, the reactions involving the smaller rare-earth metals yttrium and lutetium resulted in double C-H-bond activation and formation of [ONCH]Ln(AlMe) (Ln = Y, Lu) with the formally trianionic tridentate ligand [ONCH]. The solid-state structures of all complexes as obtained by X-ray structure analysis revealed an axial chirality which could be corroborated by low-temperature H NMR spectroscopy.

Diamagnetic lanthanium(III) and lutetium(III) tris beta-diketonate complexes of 3-(trifluoroacetyl)-d-camphor, 3-(heptafluorobutyryl)-d-camphor, and d,d-dicampholylmethane are shown to be effective chiral NMR shift reagents for determining the enantiomeric purity of compounds with hard Lewis base functional groups. These include substrates with amine, alcohol, epoxide, sulfoxide, and oxaxolidine moieties. Enantiomeric discrimination is observed in the (1)H NMR spectrum.

To the middle of oligonucleotide, 9-amino-2-methoxy-6-nitroacridine (pKa = 8.8) and 9-amino-6-chloro-2-methoxyacridine (pKa = 10.5) were tethered through three linkers, and the abilities of these conjugates for site-selective activation of RNA (inducing site-selective scission by Lu(III)) were compared.
