Abstract
Within the canonical repertoire of the amino acid involved in protein biogenesis, proline plays a unique role as an amino acid presenting a modified backbone rather than a side-chain. Chemical structures that mimic proline but introduce changes into its specific molecular features are defined as proline analogues. This review article summarizes the existing chemical, physicochemical, and biochemical knowledge about this peculiar family of structures. We group proline analogues from the following compounds: substituted prolines, unsaturated and fused structures, ring size homologues, heterocyclic, e.g., pseudoproline, and bridged proline-resembling structures. We overview (1) the occurrence of proline analogues in nature and their chemical synthesis, (2) physicochemical properties including ring conformation and cis/trans amide isomerization, (3) use in commercial drugs such as nirmatrelvir recently approved against COVID-19, (4) peptide and protein synthesis involving proline analogues, (5) specific opportunities created in peptide engineering, and (6) cases of protein engineering with the analogues. The review aims to provide a summary to anyone interested in using proline analogues in systems ranging from specific biochemical setups to complex biological systems.

Abstract
Spiro-3,2'-azetidine oxindoles combine two independently important pharmacophores in an understudied spirocyclic motif that is attractive for medicinal chemistry. Here, the enantioselective synthesis of these structures is achieved in up to 2:98 er through intramolecular C-C bond formation, involving activation of the substrate with a novel SF5-containing chiral cation phase-transfer (PT) catalyst. The products are readily elaborated/deprotected to afford medicinally relevant enantioenriched compounds. Control experiments suggest an interfacial PT mechanism, whereby catalytic asymmetric induction is achieved through the activation of the chloride leaving group.

Abstract
A rational combination of photoredox catalyst anthraquinone and hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) catalyst methyl thioglycolate allows for the rapid and straightforward conversion of a range of 2-amidated acetylenic alcohols to multifunctional N,O-spirocycles under visible light irradiation. With oxygen as the sole terminal oxidant, these reactions can be carried out efficiently at room temperature without the involvement of transition metals or strong oxidants. The successful application of this mild catalytic strategy in the late-stage functionalization of bioactive skeletons further highlights its practical value.

Abstract
1-Azaspiro[3.3]heptanes were synthesized, characterized, and validated biologically as bioisosteres of piperidine. The key synthesis step was thermal [2+2] cycloaddition between endocyclic alkenes and the Graf isocyanate, ClO2 S-NCO, to give spirocyclic β-lactams. Reduction of the β-lactam ring with alane produced 1-azaspiro[3.3]heptanes. Incorporation of this core into the anesthetic drug bupivacaine instead of the piperidine fragment resulted in a new patent-free analogue with high activity.

Abstract
Azaspiro[3.3]heptanes are valuable synthetic targets for drug discovery programs. The challenges associated with the preparation and diversification of this moiety as compared to other small, saturated rings have led to limited applications of compounds containing this spirocycle. In this regard, important advances in the field of synthetic photochemistry have exploited the biradical nature of the triplet excited state of 2-isoxazoline-3-carboxylates, engaging these species in intermolecular coupling reactions under visible light irradiation. As a continuation of our program preparing F(sp3)-rich, structurally complex molecules for DNA-encoded library technology (DELT) applications via photocatalysis, we disclose herein the incorporation of unique and densely functionalized 2-oxa-1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptanes via [2+2] cycloaddition energy transfer sensitization, providing access to an unexplored library of azaspiro compounds, many of which include additional synthetic handles important for further functionalization of the DNA-conjugated products and for library production.

Abstract
The synthesis of polycyclic compounds is of high interest due to the prevalence of these motifs in drugs and natural products. Herein, we report on the stereoselective construction of 3D bicyclic scaffolds and azetidine derivatives by modulation of N-sulfonylimines to achieve either [4+2]- or [2+2]-cycloaddition reactions. The utility of the method was established by further modulation of the product. Mechanistic studies are also included, which support reaction via Dexter energy transfer.

Abstract
The selective and controllable construction of spio-tricyclic skeletons through visible light promoted radical cyclization still remains challenging. Herein, a general and convenient protocol for the blue light-promoted radical-mediated cascade spiro-cyclization/Michael addition of N-arylpropiolamides with thiophenols under metal-free conditions was developed. In this protocol, commercially available hydrochloric acid was employed as the cheap promoter and air as the sustainable oxidant. In addition, many functional groups tolerate the reaction conditions and produce a series of sulfur-containing benzo[b]pyrrolo[2,1-c][1,4]oxazine-3,9-diones.

Abstract
2 + 2 Photocycloadditions are idealized, convergent construction approaches of 4-membered heterocyclic rings, including azetidines. However, methods of direct excitation are limited by the unfavorable photophysical properties of imines and electronically unbiased alkenes. Here, we report copper-catalyzed photocycloadditions of non-conjugated imines and alkenes to produce a variety of substituted azetidines. Design principles allow this base metal-catalyzed method to achieve 2 + 2 imine-olefin photocycloaddition via selective alkene activation through a coordination-MLCT pathway supported by combined experimental and computational mechanistic studies. An ideal method to construct azetidines would be through a [2 + 2] photocycloaddition that joins an olefin and an imine, shown only rarely in the literature, partially due to competitive photochemical processes of the imine. Here, the authors report copper-catalyzed photocycloadditions of imines and alkenes to produce a variety of substituted azetidines, via activation of the olefin.

Abstract
Unlike the oxetane ring, which, as evidenced by numerous studies, is known to play an increasingly important role in medicinal chemistry, the thietane ring has thus far received comparatively limited attention. Nonetheless, a growing number of reports now indicate that this 4-membered ring heterocycle may provide opportunities in analog design. In the present review article, we discuss the possible use and utility of the thietane fragment in medicinal chemistry and provide an overview of its properties and recent applications with a focus on isosteric replacements.

Abstract
To improve the selectivity of the fenoxaprop herbicide to rice and barnyard grass, a series of fenoxaprop-P-ethyl-amino acid ester conjugates were designed and synthesized, and tested for biological activity as well as their phloem mobility. The bioassay results indicated that the target compounds possessed better activity against barnyard grass (Echinochloa crusgalli) than rape (Brassica campestris L.) at the concentration of 0.5 mmol/L. Compounds 3h and 3i, showed more than 70% control efficiency against barnyard grass, while less than 30% for rape. The compounds showed less impact on rice after spray treatment than in the germination test. Compounds 3i, 3j, and 3k showed excellently herbicidal activities against barnyard grass and low phytotoxicity to rice. Compound 3k showed 6.1% phytotoxicity to rice at a spray concentration of 0.25 mmol/L, better than fenoxaprop-P-ethyl (61.6%) at the same concentration. The selectivity results of the target compounds revealed that most of compounds obviously reduced phytotoxicity to rice while retaining herbicidal activity of barnyard grass. The herbicidal activity of compound 3d compared to FPE was increased by 50%, while its safety on rice was also increased by 50%. The concentration of the compounds in barnyard grass roots was higher than in rice roots, showing greater phloem mobility. In particular, the concentration of compound 3d on barnyard grass exhibited 142.72 mg/kg which was 3 times as much as Fenoxaprop, while its concentration on rice exhibited 3.65 mg/kg, the results revealed that the difference of phloem mobility might be the important reason for causing the selectivity.

Abstract
The generation and functionalization, under continuous flow conditions, of two different lithiated four-membered aza-heterocycles is reported. N-Boc-3-iodoazetidine acts as a common synthetic platform for the genesis of C3-lithiated azetidine and C2-lithiated azetine depending on the lithiation agent. Flow technology enables easy handling of such lithiated intermediates at much higher temperatures compared to batch processing. Flow technology combined with cyclopentylmethyl ether as an environmentally responsible solvent allows us to address sustainability concerns.

Abstract
A general approach to bicyclic fused pyrrolidines via [3 + 2]-cycloaddition between nonstabilized azomethyne ylide and endocyclic electron-deficient alkenes was elaborated. "Push-pull" alkenes and CF3-alkenes did not react with the azomethyne ylide under the previously reported conditions, and we developed a superior protocol (LiF, 140 °C, no solvent). Among obtained products were medchem-relevant bicyclic sulfones, monofluoro-, difluoro-, and trifluoromethyl-substituted pyrrolidines. This approach not only allowed preparation of novel molecules but also significantly simplified synthesis of the existing ones (e.g., sofinicline).

Abstract
A general approach to a new generation of spirocyclic molecules – oxa-spirocycles – was developed. The key synthetic step was iodocyclization. More than 150 oxa-spirocyclic compounds were prepared. Incorporation of an oxygen atom into the spirocyclic unit dramatically improved water solubility (by up to 40 times) and lowered lipophilicity. More potent oxa-spirocyclic analogues of antihypertensive drug terazosin were synthesized and studied in vivo. A general practical approach to a new generation of spirocyclic molecules – oxa-spirocycles – is developed.![]()

Abstract
BACKGROUND Herein, a new chitosan-supported ytterbium nano-catalyst has been prepared and used in a mild, efficient, and expeditious method for the synthesis of substituted piperidine derivatives via threecomponent condensation of substituted anilines, formaldehyde and different cyclic/acyclic active methylene compounds at room temperature. METHODS The catalyst was characterized by FTIR, XRD, SEM, EDX, TEM, ICP-AES and the stability of the catalyst was evaluated by TG analysis. The synthesized compound 3,3,11,11-Tetramethyl-15-(phenyl)-15- azadispiro[5.1.5.3]hexadecane-1,5,9,13-tetrone (3a) was explored for pBR322 DNA cleavage activity and genotoxicity. Further, the interaction of 3a with CT-DNA was investigated through UV-vis, fluorescence and viscosity. RESULTS The preparation of Yb/chitosan nano-catalyst was verified and the catalyst was found effective towards substituted piperidine formations with the catalyst reusability. Compound 3a was successfully tested for DNA cleavage activity. In addition, fluorescence results revealed that compound 3a interacted with DNA with a binding affinity of 4.84 x 104 M-1. CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that compounds bearing spiro-piperidine scaffold, synthesized using reusable nano-catalyst, could be effective biological agents.

Abstract
The development of a versatile platform for the synthesis of 1,2-difunctionalized bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes to potentially mimic ortho/meta-substituted arenes is described. The syntheses of useful building blocks bearing alcohol, amine, and carboxylic acid functional handles have been achieved from a simple common intermediate. Several ortho- and meta-substituted benzene analogs, as well as simple molecular matched pairs, have also been prepared using this platform. The results of in-depth ADME (absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion) investigations of these systems are presented, as well as computational studies which validate the ortho- or meta-character of these bioisosteres.

Abstract
A homology model of Nav1.5, based mainly on the crystal structures of Nav1.2/1.5 was built, optimized and successfully inserted into the membrane bilayer. We applied steered and free MD simulation protocols for the visualization of the mechanism of Nav1.5 activation. We constrained dihedrals of S4 trigger to introduce a structural tension with further rearrangement and movement of secondary structure elements. From these, we observed an intracellular gate opening and movement of the Lys1419 residue caused by a gradual displacement of the distal S6 α-helix with the extended S4 3-10 helix of voltage-sensing domains (VSD). A construction containing the Lys1419 residue in P-loop also changed its position due to the extension of this helix and subsequent induction of the pore-forming helixes motion. From this point, a double membrane system was generated, implying a free of ligand Nav1.5 protein and on the opposite side its copy containing a docked bupivacaine molecule inside the pore channel. The system can be used for the design of selective inhibitors against the Nav1.7 channel, instead of mixed effect on both channels.

Abstract
Spiroindole and spirooxindole scaffolds are very important spiro-heterocyclic compounds in drug design processes. Significant attention has been directed at obtaining molecules based on spiroindole and spirooxindole derivatives that have bioactivity against cancer cells, microbes, and different types of disease affecting the human body. Due to their inherent three-dimensional nature and ability to project functionalities in all three dimensions, they have become biological targets. Considering reports on spiroindole and spirooxindole-containing scaffolds in the past decades, introducing novel synthetic procedures has been an active research field of organic chemistry for well over a century and will be useful in creating new therapeutic agents. This review summarizes the pharmacological significance of spiroindole and spirooxindole scaffolds and highlights the latest strategies for their synthesis, focusing particularly on the past 2 years with typical examples. The spiroindole and spirooxindoles in this review are divided by the type and ring size of the spirocycle that is fused to indole or oxindole. Summarizing these procedures will be very beneficial for discovering novel therapeutic candidate molecules.

Abstract
An unprecedented tandem α-hydroxymethylation and α-aminomethylation reaction of aromatic cyclic β-keto phosphonates with N-nosyl-O-(2-bromoethyl)hydroxylamine in the presence of DBU base has been developed, affording a range of 1,3-aminoalcohols in good yields. The resultant products could be flexibly transformed into the spirocyclic and bispirocyclic azetidines via one step of Mitsunobu reaction. Mechanistic study revealed that hydroxylamine in situ generated the formaldehyde and nosylamide, which in turn triggered the sequential Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons, Michael, and aldol reactions.

Abstract
Due to their intrinsic rigidity, three-dimensionality and structural novelty, spirocyclic molecules have become increasingly sought-after moieties in drug discovery. Herein, we report a strain-release driven synthesis of azetidine-containing spirocycles by harnessing the inherent ring strain of the azabicyclo[1.1.0]butane (ABB) fragment. Novel ABB-ketone precursors bearing silyl-protected alcohols were synthesized in a single step and shown to engage in electrophile-induced spirocyclization-desilylation reactions. Primary, secondary and tertiary silyl ethers were effectively transformed into a library of new spiro-azetidines, with a range of substituents and ring sizes. In addition, the products are generated with synthetically useful ketone and protected-amine functional groups, which provides the potential for further elaboration and for this chemistry to be utilized in the rapid assembly of medicinally relevant compounds.

Abstract
A detailed computational study covering density functional theory (DFT), molecular docking, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of some spirocyclic compounds interacting with a B-DNA has been performed. DFT calculations were performed using the B3LYP functional with 6-311++G(d,p) basis set and were used to identify the electrophilic and nucleophilic centers in electrostatic forces. NMR results were in agreement with previous experimental data and approved the reliability of the used method and basis set. The in silico screening results showed that spirocyclic compounds fulfill the Lipinski's rule of five and can be developed as potential oral bioavailable drug candidates. Based on molecular docking results, the binding affinities follow the 4c < 4d < 4a = 4b < 4e < 4g < 4f order and ranged from -8.6 to -9.7 kcal/mol indicating a reasonably favorable interaction between DNA and investigated compounds. The adducts were stabilized by hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions. The MD simulations performed for 100 ns and the results are reported in terms of variables such as root-mean-square deviation (RMSD), root-mean-square fluctuation (RMSF), center of mass (COM) separation distance between DNA and ligands, intermolecular hydrogen bonds, and radial distribution functions (RDF). The MD simulations demonstrated that compounds 4a and 4d bind into the minor groove of 1BNA and may act as potential biological probes for B-DNA.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.

Abstract
Aliphatic three- and four-membered rings including cyclopropanes, cyclobutanes, oxetanes, azetidines and bicyclo[1.1.1]pentanes have been increasingly exploited in medicinal chemistry for their beneficial physicochemical properties and applications as functional group bioisosteres. This review provides a historical perspective and comparative up to date overview of commonly applied small rings, exemplifying key principles with recent literature examples. In addition to describing the merits and advantages of each ring system, potential hazards and liabilities are also illustrated and explained, including any significant chemical or metabolic stability and toxicity risks.

Abstract
Azetidines represent one of the most important four-membered heterocycles used in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. The reactivity of azetidines is driven by a considerable ring strain, while at the same the ring is significantly more stable than that of related aziridines, which translates into both facile handling and unique reactivity that can be triggered under appropriate reaction conditions. Recently, remarkable advances in the chemistry and reactivity of azetidines have been reported. In this review, we provide an overview of the synthesis, reactivity and application of azetidines that have been published in the last years with a focus on the most recent advances, trends and future directions. The review is organized by the methods of synthesis of azetidines and the reaction type used for functionalization of azetidines. Finally, recent examples of using azetidines as motifs in drug discovery, polymerization and chiral templates are discussed.

Abstract
A synthetic strategy to fused bicyclic piperidines-building blocks for medicinal chemistry-is developed. The key step was an intramolecular [2 + 2]-photocyclization. The photochemical step was performed on a gram scale. Crystallographic analysis of the obtained compounds revealed that they occupy a novel chemical space and can be considered as elongated analogues of 3-substituted piperidines.

Abstract
The azetidine group is frequently encountered within contemporary medicinal chemistry. However, the introduction of an azetidine can be synthetically challenging. Herein, a straightforward synthesis of azetidine-3-amines, starting from a bench stable, commercial material is presented. The reaction tolerates common functionality and proceeds in moderate-to-high yield with secondary amines, and moderate-to-low yield with primary amines. The methodology compares favorably to alternative procedures and can be utilized in "any-stage" functionalization, including late-stage azetidinylation of approved drugs and other compounds with pharmacological activity.

Abstract
Saturated bioisosteres of ortho-disubstituted benzenes (bicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes) were synthesized, characterized and validated. These cores were incorporated into the bioactive compounds Valsartan, Boskalid and Fluxapyroxad instead of the benzene ring. The saturated analogues showed a similar level of antifungal activity compared to that of Boskalid and Fluxapyroxad.

Abstract
We report here a simple and robust gold-catalyzed annulation reaction, giving N- and O-spirocycles in good to excellent yields. We have prepared a library of protected amines and tertiary alcohols that give, upon cyclization with alkynes, a representative set of heterospirocycles and illustrate reaction compatibility with diverse functional groups. A change in catalytic activity is possible by modifying the solvent, and two original tricyclic spirocycles were synthesized in a tandem reaction.

Abstract
Morpholine is a versatile moiety, a privileged pharmacophore and an outstanding heterocyclic motif with wide ranges of pharmacological activities due to different mechanisms of action. The ability of morpholine to enhance the potency of the molecule through molecular interactions with the target protein (kinases) or to modulate the pharmacokinetic properties propelled medicinal chemists and researchers to synthesize morpholine ring by the efficient ways and to incorporate this moiety to develop various lead compounds with diverse therapeutic activities. The present review primarily focused on discussing the most promising synthetic leads containing morpholine ring along with structure-activity relationship (SAR) to reveal the active pharmacophores accountable for anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, anticonvulsant, antihyperlipidemic, antioxidant, antimicrobial and antileishmanial activity. This review outlines some of the recent effective chemical synthesis for morpholine ring. The review also highlighted the metabolic liability of some clinical drugs containing this nucleus and various researches on modified morpholine to enhance the metabolic stability of drugs as well. Drugs bearing morpholine ring and those under clinical trials are also mentioned with the role of morpholine and their mechanism of action. This review will provide the necessary knowledge base to the medicinal chemists in making strategic structural changes in designing morpholine derivatives.

Abstract
A series of unprotected spirocyclic β-prolines and β-homoprolines are prepared by Rh-catalyzed C-H insertion. The key intermediate, a Rh nitrenoid, is generated by the N-O bond cleavage of a substituted isoxazolidin-5-one. The reaction proceeds on a gram scale with a catalyst loading of as little as 0.1 mol %, affording spirocyclic β-amino acids that are otherwise difficult to obtain. The building blocks prepared in this work will likely find applications in medicinal chemistry.

Abstract
The TiIV -mediated synthesis of spirocyclic NH-azetidines from oxime ethers using either an alkyl Grignard reagent or terminal olefin ligand exchange coupling partner is described. Through a proposed Kulinkovich-type mechanism, a titanacyclopropane intermediate forms and serves as a 1,2-aliphatic dianion equivalent, inserting into the 1,2-dielectrophilc oxime ether to ultimately give rise to the desired N-heterocyclic four-membered ring. This transformation proceeds in moderate yield to furnish previously unreported and structurally diverse NH-azetidines in a single step.

Abstract
Azetidines are valuable motifs that readily access under explored chemical space for drug discovery. 3,3-Diarylazetidines are prepared in high yield from N-Cbz azetidinols in a calcium(II)-catalyzed Friedel-Crafts alkylation of (hetero)aromatics and phenols, including complex phenols such as β-estradiol. Electron poor phenols undergo O-alkylation. The product azetidines can be derivatized to drug-like compounds through the azetidine nitrogen and the aromatic groups. The N-Cbz group is crucial to reactivity by providing stabilization of an intermediate carbocation on the four-membered ring.

Abstract
A systematic study on the directed Pd-catalyzed (hetero)arylation of 26 substituted cyclic α-amino acids at the C(3)-atom was performed. For the first time, the 7- and 8-membered cyclic amino acids were introduced to C–H activation. 8–Aminoquinoline was used as a directing group.

Abstract
The present study reports, for the first time, the synthesis and structural features of azetidine-borane complexes, as well as their reactivity in lithiation reactions. A temperature-dependent stereoselectivity has been disclosed in the reaction of borane with N-alkyl-2-arylazetidines, allowing for a stereoselective preparation of azetidine-borane complexes 2 and 3. A regioselective hydrogen/lithium permutation, at the benzylic position, was observed in lithiation reactions of complexes possessing a syn relationship, between the ring proton and the BH3 group. In contrast, scarce or no reactivity was noticed in complexes lacking such a stereochemical requirement. The configurational stability of the lithiated intermediates has also been investigated, in order to shed some light on the stereoselectivity of the lithiation/electrophile trapping sequence. Calculations helped in supporting experimental observations, concerning structure and reactivity of these azetidine-borane complexes. Data suggest that the BH3 group could promote the lithiation reaction likely by an electrostatic complex induced proximity effect. Interestingly, a new synthetic strategy for the synthesis of N-alkyl-2,2-disubstituted azetidines has been developed.
