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.

Covalent adaptable networks (CANs) are polymer networks cross-linked via dynamic covalent bonds that can proceed with bond exchange reactions upon applying external stimuli. In this report, a series of cross-linked polyacrylate films were fabricated by changing the combination of acrylate monomer and the amount of diacrylate cross-linker possessing oxime-urethane bonds as a kind of dynamic covalent bond to evaluate their rheological relaxation properties. Model analysis of the experimental relaxation curves of cross-linked polyacrylate films was conducted by assuming that they consist of two types of relaxation, one of which is related to the oxime-urethane bond exchange reaction, and another of which is associated with the melting of the aggregated cross-linker.

A site-selective functionalization of a C(sp)-H bond was achieved in the presence of an intrinsically more reactive C(sp)-H bond by controlling the orientation of a directing group via a photo-induced E/Z isomerization of an oxime ether. By combining E/Z isomerization and an electron deficient Cp*Ir(III) catalyst, the scope of oxime ethers in C(sp)-H functionalization was successfully expanded. Based on this strategy, the order of C-H activation was switchable and successive C(sp)-H/C(sp)-H and C(sp)-H/C(sp)-H double functionalizations were accomplished to construct densely functionalized structures.

In this work, a series of novel Pterostilbene-oxime ether-carboxylic acid (POC) derivatives (d1-d10, e1-e10 and 1-13) were designed, synthesized, and characterized by spectroscopic techniques. In order to further determine the absolute configuration of these compounds, one of them, compound d3, was investigated by X-ray single crystal diffraction method. d3 had a triclinic crystal with P-1 space group, and its CHCH and CHN was confirmed as E configuration.

A series of sulfonamido-substituted oxime-ethers have been synthesized by the reaction of donor-acceptor aziridines with aldo- and keto-oximes through C-C bond cleavage. Nucleophilic attack by an oxime hydroxyl group on the -generated azomethine ylide rather than the routine cycloaddition reaction draws the novelty of the developed methodology. Selective protection of the oxime hydroxyl group is observed in the presence of phenolic -OH, which made the protocol enriched.

Oxime ethers are extensively present as key components in numerous active pharmaceutical ingredients and many other synthetically viable organic compounds. Herein, we present a metal, base and additive free mild C-O bond formation strategy for the synthesis of oxime ethers from various oxime derivatives and tertiary and secondary aryl alcohols. The reaction is carried out in the presence of 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propanol (HFIP) as the green solvent at 30 °C.
