Abstract
The discovery of safe platforms that can circumvent the endocytic pathway is of great significance for biological therapeutics that are usually degraded during endocytosis. Here we show that a self-assembled and dynamic macrocycle can passively diffuse through the cell membrane and deliver a broad range of biologics, including proteins, CRISPR Cas9, and ssDNA, directly to the cytosol while retaining their bioactivity. Cell-penetrating macrocycle CPM can be easily prepared from the room temperature condensation of diketopyrrolopyrrole lactams with diamines. We attribute the high cellular permeability of CPM to its amphiphilic nature and chameleonic properties. It adopts conformations that partially bury polar groups and expose hydrophobic side chains, thus self-assembling into micellar-like structures. Its superior fluorescence makes CPM trackable inside cells where it follows the endomembrane system. CPM outperformed commercial reagents for biologics delivery and showed high RNA knockdown efficiency of CRISPR Cas9. We envisage that this macrocycle will be an ideal starting point to design and synthesize biomimetic macrocyclic tags that can readily facilitate the interaction and uptake of biomolecules and overcome endosomal digestion.

Abstract
A diversity of unprecedented chiral aza-crown ethers were synthesized straightforwardly from readily available and inexpensive aza-crown ethers. Catalyzed by a chiral phosphoric acid, desymmetrization of an array of symmetric N-arylated aza-crown ethers through tert-amino reaction proceeded efficiently under mild conditions to produce novel tetrahydroquinoline-fused aza-crown ethers in good to excellent yields with up to 96% ee. Our strategy opens a new route to functionalized chiral crown ethers.

Abstract
Work on the use of cyclic peptides or pseudopeptides as synthetic receptors started even before the field of supramolecular chemistry was firmly established. Research initially focused on the development of synthetic ionophores and involved the use of macrocycles with a repeating sequence of subunits along the ring to facilitate the correlation between structure, conformation, and binding properties. Later, nonnatural amino acids as building blocks were also considered. With growing research in this area, cyclopeptides and related macrocycles developed into an important and structurally diverse receptor family. This review provides an overview of these developments, starting from the early years. The presented systems are classified according to characteristic structural elements present along the ring. Wherever possible, structural aspects are correlated with binding properties to illustrate how natural or nonnatural amino acids affect binding properties.

Abstract
Combined IR and UV laser spectroscopic techniques in molecular beams merged with theoretical approaches have proven to be an ideal tool to elucidate intrinsic structural properties on a molecular level. It offers the possibility to analyze structural changes, in a controlled molecular environment, when successively adding aggregation partners. By this, it further makes these techniques a valuable starting point for a bottom-up approach in understanding the forces shaping larger molecular systems. This bottom-up approach was successfully applied to neutral amino acids starting around the 1990s. Ever since, experimental and theoretical methods developed further, and investigations could be extended to larger peptide systems. Against this background, the review gives an introduction to secondary structures and experimental methods as well as a summary on theoretical approaches. Vibrational frequencies being characteristic probes of molecular structure and interactions are especially addressed. Archetypal biologically relevant secondary structures investigated by molecular beam spectroscopy are described, and the influences of specific peptide residues on conformational preferences as well as the competition between secondary structures are discussed. Important influences like microsolvation or aggregation behavior are presented. Beyond the linear α-peptides, the main results of structural analysis on cyclic systems as well as on β- and γ-peptides are summarized. Overall, this contribution addresses current aspects of molecular beam spectroscopy on peptides and related species and provides molecular level insights into manifold issues of chemical and biochemical relevance.

Abstract
Macrocycles cover a small segment of molecules with a vast range of biological activity in the chemotherapeutic world. Primarily, the natural sources derived from macrocyclic drug candidates with a wide range of biological activities are known. Further evolutions of the medicinal chemistry towards macrocycle-based chemotherapeutics involve the functionalization of the natural product by hemisynthesis. More recently, macrocycles based on carbohydrates have evolved a considerable interest among the medicinal chemists worldwide. Carbohydrates provide an ideal scaffold to generate chiral macrocycles with well-defined pharmacophores in a decorated fashion to achieve the desired biological activity. We have given an overview on carbohydrate-derived macrocycle involving their synthesis in drug design and discovery and potential role in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
Macrocyclic alkaloids (macrolides) and cyclopeptides have an immense range of applications in drug discovery research because of their natural abundance and potential biological and physicochemical properties. Presently, more than 100 approved drugs or clinical drug candidates contain macrocyclic scaffolds as the biologically active component. This review provides an interesting perspective about the use of amino acid-derived chiral pools versus other methods derived from miscellaneous synthons towards the total synthesis of non-peptidic macrolides. The synthetic routes and the key strategies involved in the total syntheses of ten natural macrolides have been discussed. Both the amino acid-derived and non-amino acid-derived synthetic routes have been illustrated to present a comparative study between the two approaches.

Abstract
A novel and simple approach was used to synthesize a reversible macrocyclic compound. This approach is based on capturing molecules with a photodynamic covalent bond inside microemulsions as nanoreactors and exposing them to UV radiation to facilitate a stereoselective reaction to form cyclic compounds quantitatively and selectively. The size of the microemulsion droplets used played a crucial role in synthesizing the reversible macrocyclic compounds. The formed macrocyclic compound was able to revert to monomers under UV irradiation of a shorter wavelength.

Abstract
In the past decade, multicomponent reactions have experienced a renaissance as powerful peptide macrocyclization tools enabling the rapid creation of skeletal complexity and diversity with low synthetic cost. This review provides both a historical and modern overview of the development of the peptide multicomponent macrocyclization as a strategy capable to compete with the classic peptide cyclization methods in terms of chemical efficiency and synthetic scope. We prove that the utilization of multicomponent reactions for cyclizing peptides by either their termini or side chains provides a key advantage over those more established methods; that is, the possibility to explore the cyclic peptide chemotype space not only at the amino acid sequence but also at the ring-forming moiety. Owing to its multicomponent nature, this type of peptide cyclization process is well-suited to generate diversity at both the endo- and exo-cyclic fragments formed during the ring-closing step, which stands as a distinctive and useful characteristic for the creation and screening of cyclic peptide libraries. Examples of the novel multicomponent peptide stapling approach and heterocycle ring-forming macrocyclizations are included, along with multicomponent methods incorporating macrocyclization handles and the one-pot syntheses of macromulticyclic peptide cages. Interesting applications of this strategy in the field of drug discovery and chemical biology are provided.

Abstract
To date, the synthesis of peptides is concurrent with the production of enormous amounts of toxic waste. DMF, CH2 Cl2 , and NMP are three of the most toxic organic solvents used in chemical synthesis and are the most common solvents used for peptide synthesis. Additionally, concerns about the hepatotoxicity caused by exposure to DMF and from the toxic and allergenic nature of additives used in peptide synthesis necessitates the need for a green, environmentally friendly, and safer protocol for peptide synthesis. This review summarizes the current literature on green solid-phase peptide synthesis successes and challenges encountered. The review concludes with suggestions for future research towards a simple and efficient green peptide synthesis protocol.

Abstract
A series of 3,5-disubstituted 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives including the derivative with two chiral centers, 6H (R2 = CH3, CH2Ph), as a new type of organic hydride source were synthesized and characterized. The thermodynamic driving forces (defined as enthalpy changes or standard redox potentials) of the 6 elementary steps for the organic hydrides to release hydride ions in acetonitrile were measured by isothermal titration calorimetry and electrochemical methods. The impacts of the substituents and functional groups bearing the N1 and C3/C5 positions on the thermodynamic driving forces of the 6 elementary steps were examined and analyzed. Moreover, the results showed that the reaction mechanism between the chiral organic hydride and activated ketone (ethyl benzoylformate) was identified as the concerted hydride transfer pathway based on the thermodynamic analysis platform. These valuable and crucial thermodynamic parameters will provide a broadly beneficial impact on the applications of 3,5-disubstituted 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical chemistry.

Abstract
Two new tetradentate C2-symmetric pseudopeptidic ligands derived from Val and Phe containing two amino and two amido groups and a central o-substituted aromatic spacer have been prepared. Their complexes with Cu(2+), Zn(2+), and Ni(2+) have been studied by potentiometry, UV-vis spectrophotometry, FT-IR, and ESI-MS. The presence of the aromatic spacer provides Cu(2+) complexes with stability constants several orders of magnitude higher than those observed for related ligands containing aliphatic central spacers. Besides, the formation of [MH-2L] complex species is favored. Crystal structures for the corresponding Cu(2+) and Ni(2+) have been obtained, revealing the metal atom in an essentially square-planar geometry, although, in several instances, the oxygen atom of an amide carbonyl of a second complex species can act as a fifth coordination site. In the case of Zn(2+), the only crystal structure obtained displays a square-pyramidal arrangement of the metal center. Finally, preliminary experiments show the catalytic activity of some of these complexes, in particular, Zn(2+) complexes, for epoxide ring-opening with using aniline as the nucleophile in a ligand accelerated process.

Abstract
Pseudopeptidic receptors containing an acridine unit have been prepared and their fluorescence response to a series of amino acids was measured in water. Free amino acids, not protected either at the C or the N terminus, were used for this purpose. The prepared receptors display a selective response to tryptophan (Trp) versus the other assayed amino acids under acidic conditions. The macrocyclic nature of the receptor is important as the fluorescence quenching is higher for the macrocyclic compound than for the related open-chain receptor. Notably, under the experimental acidic conditions used, both the receptor and guest are fully protonated and positively charged; thus, the experimental results suggest the formation of supramolecular species that contain two positively charged organic molecular components in proximity stabilized through aromatic-aromatic interactions and a complex set of cation-anion-cation interactions. The selectivity towards Trp seems to be based on the existence of a strong association between the indole ring of the monocharged amino acid and the acridinium fragment of the triprotonated form of the receptor, which is established to be assisted by the interaction of the cationic moieties with hydrogen sulfate anions.

Abstract
For years researchers have tried to understand the molecular behavior of complex biomolecules through the development of small molecules that can partially mimic their function. Now researchers are implementing the reverse approach: using the structural and mechanistic knowledge obtained from those complex systems to design small molecules with defined properties and for specific applications. One successful strategy for constructing bioinspired, minimalistic molecules is to combine natural building blocks that provide functional elements with abiotic fragments that serve as structural scaffolds. Therefore pseudopeptidic compounds, most of them based on C2 symmetric structures, represent a unique opportunity to explore and evaluate this approach. Some of these molecules are as simple as two amino acids connected by a diamino spacer. The results in this Account show how bioinspired minimalistic pseudopeptides can form ordered structures, participate in the recognition and transcription of information events in molecular devices, and catalyze reactions. This strategy allows researchers to design and prepare a variety of open-chain and macrocyclic compounds leading to systems that can self-aggregate to form hierarchically ordered micro- and nanostructures. In addition, small changes in the molecule or external stimuli can regulate the self-aggregation pattern. In the same way, researchers can also tune the molecular movements of simple pseudopeptides through environmental factors, providing a means to control new molecular devices. In addition, some of the prepared model compounds have shown interesting properties in molecular recognition and even as sensors for several targets of interest. Finally we have observed remarkable catalytic activities from these types of molecules, although those results are still far from the efficiency shown by natural peptides. This family of pseudopeptidic compounds offers the opportunity for the more elaborate design of relatively simple abiotic but bioinspired systems that display specific properties. In addition, the results can provide additional information that will increase the molecular understanding of the basic principles that underlie the extraordinary behavior of natural systems.

Abstract
Two new pseudopeptidic molecules (one macrocyclic and one open chain) containing an acridine unit have been prepared. The fluorescence response of these receptors to a series of acids was measured in CHCl(3). Receptors are selective to H(2)PO(4)(-) versus HSO(4)(-), and an even higher selectivity is found over other anions such as Cl(-), Br(-), CH(3)COO(-), and CF(3)COO(-). We show that the macrocyclic receptor is more selective for H(2)PO(4)(-) than the related open chain receptor. The supramolecular interactions of triprotonated receptors with different anions have been modeled in silico and have been studied by different experimental techniques. Optimized geometries obtained by computational calculations agree well with experimental data, in particular fluorescence experiments, suggesting that the selective supramolecular interaction takes places through coordination of the anions to the triprotonated form of the receptor.

Abstract
A synthesis of representative monohydroxy derivatives of valinomycin (VLM) was achieved under mild conditions by direct hydroxylation at the side chains of the macrocyclic substrate using dioxiranes. Results demonstrate that the powerful methyl(trifluoromethyl)dioxirane 1b should be the reagent of choice to carry out these key transformations. Thus, a mixture of compounds derived from the direct dioxirane attack at the β-(CH(3))(2)C-H alkyl chain of one Hyi residue (compound 3a) or of one Val moiety (compounds 3b and 3c) could be obtained. Following convenient mixture separation, each of the new oxyfunctionalized macrocycles became completely characterized.

Abstract
A chemoenzymatic method was developed for the synthesis of macrocyclic peptides and glycopeptides. Sortase A was found to mediate either head to tail cyclization or oligomerization and then head to tail cyclization of peptides and glycopeptides, depending on the peptide length, to produce 15-mer or higher cyclic peptides and glycopeptides.
