A simplified Boc deprotection using a high-temperature flow reactor is described. The system afforded the qualitative yield of a wide variety of deprotected substrates within minutes using acetonitrile as the solvent and without the use of acidic conditions or additional workups. Highly efficient, multistep reaction sequences in flow are also demonstrated wherein no extraction or isolation was required between steps.

A series of 3-phosphonyl polysubstituted pyridine were first synthesized by photocatalysis, combining a phosphonyl radical cascade reaction, Boc deprotection, and aromatization. This strategy can avoid the difficulties of activating the C3-H bond on pyridine to synthesize 3-phosphonylpyridine under mild conditions. Furthermore, by constructing different enynes, we can achieve the metal-free modular synthesis of 3-phosphonyl polysubstituted pyridine, which will be transferred into a new type of phosphine ligand.

One of the grand challenges in chemical biology is identifying a small-molecule modulator for all proteins within a proteome. To expand the variety and number of ligandable proteins for drug discovery, the objective of this study was to synthesize and evaluate the protein target profiles of electrophilic and photoreactive fully functionalized small-molecule probes (FFSMPs) featuring increased scaffold-, appendage-, and protein-reactive functional group (PRFG) diversity. FFSMPs contain: (1) a protein-binding motif, (2) an electrophilic or photoreactive PRFG for target protein capture, and (3) a terminal alkyne for click chemistry-based proteomic applications.

Aqueous asymmetric catalysis using chiral covalent organic frameworks (COFs) represents a significant advancement but remains to be explored. Herein, we present the first example of aqueous asymmetric catalysis catalyzed by a primary amine-tagged chiral -ADP-TAPB COF. The -ADP-TAPB COF was synthesized by the postsynthetic deprotection of -ADP-TAPB-Boc bearing a protective tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc) group, which was constructed by a Schiff-base reaction between an alanine-derived chiral building block (-ADP-Boc) and 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)benzene (TAPB).

Bile acids (BAs) are steroidal molecules that play important roles in nutrient absorption, distribution, and excretion. They also act on specific receptors implicated in various metabolic and inflammatory diseases demonstrating their importance as potential drug candidates. Accordingly, there has been a concerted effort to develop new BA derivatives to probe structure-activity relationships with the goal of discovering BA analogues with enhanced pharmacological properties.

A solvent-free, operationally simple, and chemoselective mechanochemical method for -butoxycarbonyl (Boc) deprotection is described. In a planetary ball mill, -Boc groups from protected heterocycles, amides, and anilines, as well as -Boc groups from carbonates, can be removed selectively, using basic alumina. This high-yielding protocol avoids tedious extraction and column chromatography.
