AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
The Diels-Alder reaction and its retro breakdown has garnered increasing research focus due to several of its advantageous properties including, atomic conservation, reversibility, and substituent retention. This is especially true in biomedical application and nanomedicine development which display a preference for rapid, efficient, and clean "click" chemistry reactions allowing for delivery of active ingredients and subsequent release upon temperature elevation. There are multiple variations on the Diels-Alder reaction based around substitution position and materials being coupled which can affect the temperature threshold for and rate of the retro reaction reversal. Hence, the Diels-Alder reaction offers a simple coupling reaction for active ingredients with tailorable release. In this review the incorporation of the Diels-Alder chemistries and linkers within the biomedical and nanomedicine field will be discussed, as well as its use in future potential technologies.

We report a base-promoted, metal-free multicomponent tandem reaction, involving a [4 + 1 + 1] cycloaddition process between -substituted nitroarenes, aldehydes, and ammonium salts. Modifying the substituents on the nitroaromatic compounds effectively provides structurally diverse 2-substituted and 4-alkenylquinazolines with good to excellent yields (77%-90% and quinazoline 51 examples) and high tolerance for various inorganic ammonium salts (13 examples, such as NH·HO, NHCl, and NHHF). A new method for constructing 2,4-substituted quinazoline compounds with high selectivity from simple nitrogen source compounds was developed, and the reaction can be scaled up to a gram scale.

The enantioselective domino Heck/cross-coupling has emerged as a powerful tool in modern chemical synthesis for decades. Despite significant progress in relative rigid skeleton substrates, the implementation of asymmetric Heck/cross-coupling cascades of highly flexible haloalkene substrates remains a challenging and and long-standing goal. Here we report an efficient asymmetric domino Heck/Tsuji-Trost reaction of highly flexible vinylic halides with 1,3-dienes enabled by palladium catalysis.

The inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) cycloaddition between tetrazines and strained dienophiles is recognized as a fast and specific reaction. The integrating tetrazines and strained dienophiles onto the backbone of polysaccharides yield appropriate water-soluble precursors for IEDDA cycloaddition. Due to the high specificity of the IEDDA reaction and its outstanding cytocompatibility, a range of cargos (live cells, peptides and pharmaceuticals) can be effectively encapsulated in polysaccharide solutions throughout the hydrogel formation.

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.

This review reports the achievements in copper(II) triflate-catalyzed processes concerning the multicomponent reactions, applied to the synthesis of acyclic and cyclic compounds. In particular, for the heteropolycyclic systems mechanistic insights were outlined as well as cycloaddition and aza-Diels-Alder reactions were included. These strategies have gained attention due to their highly atom- and step-economy, one-step multi-bond forming, mild reaction conditions, low cost and easy handling.
