A one-pot protocol for the diversity-oriented synthesis of two indole-based annulated polyheterocycles, ketoindoloquinoxalines and indolotriazoloquinoxalines, has been described. The salient features of the methodology involves either a metal/O2-catalyzed aminooxygenation or a [3 + 2] cycloaddition pathway.

Owing to the inaccessibility of β1-4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase for direct glycan chain elongation, the enzymatic synthesis of 0-series gangliosides with extended backbones has not been explored. In this study, sialic acid was enzymatically introduced as an auxiliary group to overcome the limitation of substrate specificity of Campylobacter jejuni β1-4-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase (CjCgtA) to achieve the synthesis of desired extended 0-series ganglioside core structures, and the sialic acid auxiliary group could be removed by sialidase at appropriate stages. A bacterial α2-6-sialyltransferase from Photobacterium damselae (Pd2,6ST) exhibited unexpected acceptor substrate specificity for 0-series ganglioside core structures, providing ready access to complex gangliosides bearing the sialyl N-acetylgalactosamine unit.

We present a Diversity Oriented Clicking approach to synthesize a library of novel clickable -substituted 2-aminothiazoles which serve as versatile hubs for SuFEx click chemistry diversification. Leveraging the spring-loaded reactivity of the 2-Substituted-Alkynyl-1-Sulfonyl Fluoride (SASF) connectors, the transformation is simple to perform, tolerant of a wide range of functionality, and regioselective for a single product. Finally, we propose a detailed stepwise reaction mechanism that is supported by experimental and computational analysis.

α-/β-Galactosylceramide (GalCer) and glucosylceramide (GlcCer) derivatives having a radical label at the 6--position suitable for electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopic studies were synthesized by a diversity-oriented strategy that is highlighted by the efficient glycosylation of a lipid precursor and late-stage ceramide assembly to enable lipid diversification. The strategy was also utilized to synthesize natural α-/β-GalCers and GlcCers. Furthermore, the involved azido-intermediates are flexible platforms to access various other GalCer and GlcCer derivatives.
