We present a photo- and Cu-mediated C cyanation of bench-stable (hetero)aryl thianthrenium salts via an aryl radical addition pathway. The thianthrenium substrates can be readily accessed via C-H functionalization, and the radiocyanation protocol proceeds under mild conditions (<50 °C, 5 min) and can be automated using open-source, readily accessible augmentations to existing radiochemistry equipment.

Scalable Approach to Molecular Motor-Polymer Conjugates for Light-Driven Artificial Muscles.

Adv Mater

July 2024

Life-Like Materials and Systems, Department of Chemistry, University of Mainz, Duesbergweg 10-14, 55128, Mainz, Germany.

The integration of molecular machines and motors into materials represents a promising avenue for creating dynamic and functional molecular systems, with potential applications in soft robotics or reconfigurable biomaterials. However, the development of truly scalable and controllable approaches for incorporating molecular motors into polymeric matrices has remained a challenge. Here, it is shown that light-driven molecular motors with sensitive photo-isomerizable double bonds can be converted into initiators for Cu-mediated controlled/living radical polymerization enabling the synthesis of star-shaped motor-polymer conjugates.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS)-involved photodynamic therapy (PDT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) hold great promise for tumor treatment. However, hypoxia, insufficient HO, and overexpressed glutathione (GSH) in the tumor microenvironment (TME) hinder ROS generation significantly. Herein, we reported CaO@Cu-TCPP/CUR with O/HO/Ca self-supply and GSH depletion for enhanced PDT/CDT and Ca overload synergistic therapy.

Nanozyme-based catalytic therapy is an effective method for cancer treatment, but insufficient catalytic activity presents a challenge in achieving optimal therapeutic outcomes. External light can provide an innovative approach to modulate nanozyme catalytic activity. Herein, we report on plasmonic gold nanobipyramid@cuprous oxide (Au NBP@CuO) nanozyme for the effective phototherapy of breast cancer.

Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Phthalideisoquinoline Derivatives.

J Org Chem

February 2023

Guangdong Key Laboratory of Chiral Molecule and Drug Discovery, School of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou510006, China.

A photo and Cu-mediated radical-radical approach enabling the one-step synthesis of the phthalideisoquinoline skeleton has been reported. Under mild reaction conditions, a series of -aryl phthalideisoquinolines containing various substituents were synthesized in moderate to good yields. Bioactivity data demonstrated that a new compound can efficiently inhibit the growth of multiple tumor cell lines with enhancements of more than 10-fold by significantly increasing G/M arrest compared with noscapine.
