Synthesis and characterization of new P(III) and P(V) bis(azido)phosphines/phosphoranes supported by an ,'-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl) imidazolin-2-iminato (IPrN) ligand and their reactivity with various secondary and tertiary phosphines result in the formation of chiral and/or asymmetric mono(phosphinimino)azidophosphines via the Staudinger reaction. The reaction of IPrNP(N) () or IPrNP(S)(N) () with an excess of tertiary phosphine resulted in the chemoselective formation of IPrNP(N)(NPMe) () or IPrNP(S)N(NPR) (), respectively. The chemoselective Staudinger reactivity was also observed in reactions using a secondary phosphine (HPCy) to produce IPrNP(S)N[NP(H)Cy] (), which exists in equilibrium with a tautomeric IPrNP(S)N[N(H)PCy] form (), as confirmed by P-P nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY). Density functional theory (DFT) calculations point to a combination of energetically unfavorable lowest unoccupied molecular orbitals (LUMOs) and the accumulation of increasing negative charge at the terminal azido-nitrogen upon a single azide-to-phosphinimine conversion that gave rise to the observed chemoselectivity.

Surface biotinylation has been widely adapted in profiling the cellular proteome associated with the plasma membrane. However, the workflow is subject to interference from the cytoplasmic biotin-associated proteins that compete for streptavidin-binding during purification. Here we established a bioorthogonal conjugation-assisted purification (BCAP) workflow that utilizes the Staudinger chemoselective ligation to label and isolate surface-associated proteins while minimizing the binding of endogenous biotin-associated proteins.

Since that time, phosphine probes have been used in myriad applications to tag azide-functionalized biomolecules. The Staudinger ligation also paved the way for the development of other phosphorus-based chemistries, many of which are widely employed in biological experiments.

We report a solid-phase strategy for total synthesis of the peptidic natural product yaku'amide B (1), which exhibits antiproliferative activity against various cancer cells. Its linear tridecapeptide sequence bears four β,β-dialkylated α,β-dehydroamino acid residues and is capped with an N-terminal acyl group (NTA) and a C-terminal amine (CTA). To realize the Fmoc-based solid-phase synthesis of this complex structure, we developed new methods for enamide formation, enamide deprotection, and C-terminal modification.

In this paper, we introduce vinylphosphonites for chemoselective Staudinger-phosphonite reactions (SPhR) with azides to form vinylphosphonamidates for the subsequent modification of cysteine residues in peptides and proteins. An electron-rich alkene is turned into an electron-deficient vinylphosphonamidate, thereby inducing electrophilic reactivity for a following thiol addition. We show that by varying the phosphonamidate ester substituent we can fine-tune the reactivity of the thiol addition and even control the functional properties of the final conjugate.
