Rapid coupling reactions between 2,6-bis(azidomethyl)pyridine and terminal alkynes in the presence of 5 mol% Cu(OAc)(2)·H(2)O without the addition of a reducing agent afford tridentate ligands for first-row transition-metal ions. The chelation between Cu(II) and alkylated nitrogen atoms of the azido groups of 2,6-bis(azidomethyl)pyridine, as observed in the solid state, is credited for the acceleration of the azide-alkyne cycloaddition reactions.

In this study, we applied a systematic approach to establish an iterative workflow and to drive the chemical design of thermosensitive, in situ forming injectables as a function of the intended target product profile. Self-assembly, mechanical properties, physical state, and thermal transition behavior were assessed via nuclear magnetic resonance, oscillatory rheology, turbidimetry and visual inspection techniques. Thus, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and poly(2-alkyl-2-oxazoline)s (PAOx)s with LCSTs below body temperature were studied before and after grafting them onto azido-substituted hyaluronic acid (HA) via strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC).

This computational study investigated the catalytic efficiency of novel RhCp complexes (X = CF, SiF, CCl, SOH) in [3 + 2] azide-alkyne cycloaddition reactions density functional theory (MN12-L/Def2-SVP). Through quantum mechanical approaches, we explore the impact of different substituents on the Cp* ligand on the mechanism, selectivity, and reactivity of these Rh-based catalysts. Non-covalent interaction (NCI) and reduced density gradient (RDG) analyses, along with frontier molecular orbital (FMO) and Hirshfeld atomic charge analyses, were utilized to assess ligand stability and catalytic performance.

Drug targeting strategies, such as peptide-drug conjugates (PDCs), have arisen to combat the issue of off-target toxicity that is commonly associated with chemotherapeutic small molecule drugs. Here we investigated the ability of PDCs comprising a human protein-derived cell-penetrating peptide-platelet factor 4-derived internalization peptide (PDIP)-as a targeting strategy to improve the selectivity of camptothecin (CPT), a topoisomerase I inhibitor that suffers from off-target toxicity. The intranuclear target of CPT allowed exploration of PDC design features required for optimal potency.

Organophosphorus compounds, characterized by the incorporation of phosphorus into organic molecules, play a critical role in various fields such as medicine, agriculture, and industry. Their unique electronic properties and versatility make them essential in developing therapeutic agents, pesticides, and materials. One prominent class of organophosphorus compounds is organophosphorus heterocycles, which combine the benefits of both phosphorus and cyclic structures.

Azide-alkyne cycloaddition of cyclooct-2-yn-1-ol and 2-(azidophenyl)boronic acid proceeded rapidly at room temperature with complete regioselectivity to afford a triazole having a boronate ester group. The secondary interaction to form a boronate ion contributed to cycloaddition rate acceleration and the control of regioselectivity. The interaction to form an imine or hemiaminal was also evaluated.
