Abstract
Bioorthogonal click chemistry has played a transformative role in many research fields, including chemistry, biology, and medicine. Click reactions are crucial to produce increasingly complex bioconjugates, to visualize and manipulate biomolecules in living systems and for various applications in bioengineering and drug delivery. As biological (model) systems grow more complex, researchers have an increasing need for using multiple orthogonal click reactions simultaneously. In this review, we will introduce the most common bioorthogonal reactions and discuss their orthogonal use on the basis of their mechanism and electronic or steric tuning. We provide an overview of strategies to create reaction orthogonality and show recent examples of mutual orthogonal chemistry used for simultaneous biomolecule labeling. We end by discussing some considerations for the type of chemistry needed for labeling biomolecules in a system of choice.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal chemistry is a rapidly expanding field of research that involves the use of small molecules that can react selectively with biomolecules in living cells and organisms, without causing any harm or interference with native biochemical processes. It has made significant contributions to the field of biology and medicine by enabling selective labeling, imaging, drug targeting, and manipulation of bio-macromolecules in living systems. This approach offers numerous advantages over traditional chemistry-based methods, including high specificity, compatibility with biological systems, and minimal interference with biological processes. In this review, we provide an overview of the recent advancements in bioorthogonal chemistry and their current and potential applications in translational research. We present an update on this innovative chemical approach that has been utilized in cells and living systems during the last five years for biomedical applications. We also highlight the nucleic acid-templated synthesis of small molecules by using bioorthogonal chemistry. Overall, bioorthogonal chemistry provides a powerful toolset for studying and manipulating complex biological systems, and holds great potential for advancing translational research.

Abstract
Two pyrene-tetrazole conjugates were synthesized as photoreactive chromophores that allow for the first time the combination of metabolic labelling of DNA in cells and subsequent bioorthogonal "photoclick" modification triggered by visible light. Two strained alkenes and three alkene-modified nucleosides were used as reactive counterparts and revealed no major differences in their "photoclick" reactivity. This is a significant advantage because it allows 5-vinyl-2'-deoxyuridine to be applied as the smallest possible alkene-modified nucleoside for metabolic labelling of DNA in cells. Both pyrene-tetrazole conjugates show fluorogenicity during the "photoclick" reactions, which is a second advantage for cellular imaging. Living HeLa cells were incubated with 5-vinyl-2'-deoxyuridine for 48 h to ensure one cell division. After fixation, the newly synthesized genomic DNA was successfully labelled by irradiation with visible light at 405 nm and 450 nm. This method is an attractive tool for the visualization of genomic DNA in cells with full spatiotemporal control by the use of visible light as a reaction trigger.

Abstract
Selective structural modification of amino acids and peptides is a central strategy in organic chemistry, chemical biology but also in pharmacology and material science. In this context, the formation of tetrazole rings, known to possess significant therapeutic properties, would expand the chemical space of unnatural amino acids but has received less attention. In this study, we demonstrated that the classic unimolecular Wolff rearrangement of α-amino acid-derived diazoketones could be replaced by a faster intermolecular cycloaddition reaction with aryldiazonium salts under identical practical conditions. This strategy provides an efficient synthetic platform that could transform proteinogenic α-amino acids into a plethora of unprecedented tetrazole-decorated amino acid derivatives with preservation of the stereocenters. Density functional theory studies shed some light on the reaction mechanism and provided information regarding the origins of the chemo- and regioselectivity. Furthermore, this diazo-cycloaddition protocol was applied to construct tetrazole-modified peptidomimetics and drug-like amino acid derivatives.

Anal Bioanal Chem 2023:10.1007/s00216-023-04773-w. [PMID: 37256307 DOI: 10.1007/s00216-023-04773-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/18/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Itaconic acid (IA) and its derivatives produced by fungi have significant potential as industrial feedstocks. We recently developed a method for the detection of these compounds based on their terminal C-C double bonds. However, the presence of reducing agents, such as glucose and other fungal metabolites, leads to undesirable side reactions, and consequently, deteriorates the detection specificity. Therefore, we developed a fluorescence detection method for IA and its derivatives underpinned by a photoclick reaction. The photoclick reaction between conjugated IA and 5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-phenyl-2H-tetrazole under UV irradiation affords a fluorescent product. No fluorescence was detected when succinic acid was subjected to the reaction, indicating that a terminal C-C double bond is required to induce fluorescence. Optimal reaction conditions were determined to be a combination of 80% final dimethyl sulfoxide concentration, 30-s UV irradiation, and a pH of 2. Two weeks after the reaction at 4 °C, 89.0% of the initial intensity was retained, indicating that the reaction product was relatively stable. Glucose and kojic acid did not induce fluorescence after the reaction, indicating that these reducing agents did not affect fluorescence. IA was detected in a culture of Aspergillus terreus, and its quantification using the photoclick reaction was in agreement with the results obtained using high-performance liquid chromatography analysis. Interestingly, the IA derivative avenaciolide present in submillimolar quantities was also detectable in a culture of Aspergillus avenaceus using this method. The established method will enable the development of high-throughput screening methods to identify fungi that produce IA and its derivatives.

Abstract
Cyclooctyne molecules have found wide applications in the strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions, which avoid the biotoxicity caused by the use of Cu(I) catalysts. Among the various cyclooctyne systems, dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO) series have displayed the highest reaction activity. However, the synthesis processes of such structures are time-consuming, which to some extent limit their large-scale development and application. This review has summarized current synthesis routes of two DBCO molecules, aza-dibenzocyclooctyne (DIBAC) and biarylazacyclooctynone (BARAC).

Abstract
Photochemical ligation has become an indispensable tool for applications that require spatially addressable functionalisation, both in biology and materials science. Interestingly, a number of photochemical ligations result in fluorescent products, enabling a self-reporting function that provides almost instantaneous visual feedback of the reaction's progress and efficiency. Perhaps no other chemical reaction system allows control in space and time to the same extent, while concomitantly providing inherent feedback with regard to reaction success and location. While photoactivable fluorescent properties have been widely used in biology for imaging purposes, the expansion of the array of photochemical reactions has further enabled its utility in soft matter materials. Herein, we concisely summarise the key developments of fluorogenic-forming photoligation systems and their emerging applications in both biology and materials science. We further summarise the current challenges and future opportunities of exploiting fluorescent self-reporting reactions in a wide array of chemical disciplines.

Abstract
The creation of discrete, covalent bonds between a protein and a functional molecule like a drug, fluorophore, or radiolabeled complex is essential for making state-of-the-art tools that find applications in basic science and clinical medicine. Photochemistry offers a unique set of reactive groups that hold potential for the synthesis of protein conjugates. Previous studies have demonstrated that photoactivatable desferrioxamine B (DFO) derivatives featuring a para-substituted aryl azide (ArN3) can be used to produce viable zirconium-89-radiolabeled monoclonal antibodies (89Zr-mAbs) for applications in noninvasive diagnostic positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of cancers. Here, we report on the synthesis, 89Zr-radiochemistry, and light-triggered photoradiosynthesis of 89Zr-labeled human serum albumin (HSA) using a series of 14 different photoactivatable DFO derivatives. The photoactive groups explore a range of substituted, and isomeric ArN3 reagents, as well as derivatives of benzophenone, a para-substituted trifluoromethyl phenyl diazirine, and a tetrazole species. For the compounds studied, efficient photochemical activation occurs inside the UVA-to-visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum (∼365-450 nm) and the photochemical reactions with HSA in water were complete within 15 min under ambient conditions. Under standardized experimental conditions, photoradiosynthesis with compounds 1-14 produced the corresponding 89ZrDFO-PEG3-HSA conjugates with decay-corrected isolated radiochemical yields between 18.1 ± 1.8% and 62.3 ± 3.6%. Extensive density functional theory (DFT) calculations were used to explore the reaction mechanisms and chemoselectivity of the light-induced bimolecular conjugation of compounds 1-14 to protein. The photoactivatable DFO-derivatives operate by at least five distinct mechanisms, each producing a different type of bioconjugate bond. Overall, the experimental and computational work presented here confirms that photochemistry is a viable option for making diverse, functionalized protein conjugates.

Abstract
Dual probes that possess positron emission tomography (PET) and fluorescence imaging (FI) capabilities are precision medicine tools that can be used to improve patient care and outcomes. Detecting tumor lesions using PET, an extremely sensitive technique, coupled with fluorescence-guided surgical resection of said tumor lesions can maximize the removal of cancerous tissue. The development of novel molecular probes is important for targeting different biomarkers as every individual case of cancer has different characteristics. This short review will discuss some aspects of dual PET/FI probes and explore the recently reported examples.

Abstract
AbstractRecently, photoclick chemistry emerged as a powerful tool employed in several research fields, from medicinal chemistry and biology to material sciences. The growing interest in this type of chemical process is justified by the possibility to produce complex molecular systems using mild reaction conditions. However, the elevated spatio-temporal control offered by photoclick chemistry is highly intriguing, as it expands the range of applications. In this context, the light-triggered reaction of 2,5-diaryl tetrazoles with dipolarophiles emerged for its interesting features: excellent stability of the substrates, fast reaction kinetic, and the formation of a highly fluorescent product, fundamental for sensing applications. In the last years, 2,5-diaryl tetrazoles have been extensively employed, especially for bioorthogonal ligations, to label biomolecules and nucleic acids. In this review, we summarized recent applications of this interesting photoclick reaction, with a particular focus on biological fields. Moreover, we described the main limits that affect this system and current strategies proposed to overcome these issues. The general discussion here presented could prompt further optimization of the process and pave the way for the development of new original structures and innovative applications.

Abstract
The bioconjugation of proteins-that is, the creation of a covalent link between a protein and any other molecule-has been studied for decades, partly because of the numerous applications of protein conjugates, but also due to the technical challenge it represents. Indeed, proteins possess inner physico-chemical properties-they are sensitive and polynucleophilic macromolecules-that make them complex substrates in conjugation reactions. This complexity arises from the mild conditions imposed by their sensitivity but also from selectivity issues, viz the precise control of the conjugation site on the protein. After decades of research, strategies and reagents have been developed to address two aspects of this selectivity: chemoselectivity-harnessing the reacting chemical functionality-and site-selectivity-controlling the reacting amino acid residue-most notably thanks to the participation of synthetic chemistry in this effort. This review offers an overview of these chemical bioconjugation strategies, insisting on those employing native proteins as substrates, and shows that the field is active and exciting, especially for synthetic chemists seeking new challenges.

Abstract
The addition of O-linked-β-D-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) onto serine and threonine residues of nuclear and cytoplasmic proteins is an abundant, unique post-translational modification governing important biological processes. O-GlcNAc dysregulation underlies several metabolic disorders leading to human diseases, including cancer, neurodegeneration and diabetes. This review provides an extensive summary of the recent progress in probing O-GlcNAcylation using mainly chemical methods, with a special focus on discussing mechanistic insights and the structural role of O-GlcNAc at the molecular level. We highlight key aspects of the O-GlcNAc enzymes, including development of OGT and OGA small-molecule inhibitors, and describe a variety of chemoenzymatic and chemical biology approaches for the study of O-GlcNAcylation. Special emphasis is placed on the power of chemistry in the form of synthetic glycopeptide and glycoprotein tools for investigating the site-specific functional consequences of the modification. Finally, we discuss in detail the conformational effects of O-GlcNAc glycosylation on protein structure and stability, relevant O-GlcNAc-mediated protein interactions and its molecular recognition features by biological receptors. Future research in this field will provide novel, more effective chemical strategies and probes for the molecular interrogation of O-GlcNAcylation, elucidating new mechanisms and functional roles of O-GlcNAc with potential therapeutic applications in human health.

Abstract
A set of photo-switchable monopeptides derived from cis-β-dibenzodiazocine-l-alanine (cis-DBDAA) have been designed and synthesized, which are capable of photo-click reacting with diaryltetrazoles or diarylsydnones in a hydrophobic phospholipid bilayer environment. The DBDAA monopeptides include both a hydrophobic tail on C-terminal, providing high affinity toward lipid membrane, and a modularized functional moiety on N-terminal, enabling rapid optimization of the self-assembly strength to form multifunctional supramolecules. With the cis-DBDAA monopeptides photo-switched into trans-configuration, we were able to disrupt the supramolecular assembly through an efficient photo-click reaction across the lipid bilayer of liposomes. We reveal that the performance of the photo-click reactions between the monopeptides and photo-generated nitrile imine intermediates is significantly enhanced by enrichment of both reactants in the hydrophobic membrane lamel of liposomes. Enrichment of the DBDAA monopeptide in lipid phase serves as a convenient method to introduce bioorthogonal chemical handles on live cell membranes, which enables fluorescence labelling of single cell's membrane with high spatiotemporal resolution to facilitate the studies on cell membrane dynamics.

Abstract
At its basic conceptualization, photoclick chemistry embodies a collection of click reactions that are performed via the application of light. The emergence of this concept has had diverse impact over a broad range of chemical and biological research due to the spatiotemporal control, high selectivity, and excellent product yields afforded by the combination of light and click chemistry. While the reactions designated as "photoclick" have many important features in common, each has its own particular combination of advantages and shortcomings. A more extensive realization of the potential of this chemistry requires a broader understanding of the physical and chemical characteristics of the specific reactions. This review discusses the features of the most frequently employed photoclick reactions reported in the literature: photomediated azide-alkyne cycloadditions, other 1,3-dipolarcycloadditions, Diels-Alder and inverse electron demand Diels-Alder additions, radical alternating addition chain transfer additions, and nucleophilic additions. Applications of these reactions in a variety of chemical syntheses, materials chemistry, and biological contexts are surveyed, with particular attention paid to the respective strengths and limitations of each reaction and how that reaction benefits from its combination with light. Finally, challenges to broader employment of these reactions are discussed, along with strategies and opportunities to mitigate such obstacles.

Abstract
Click chemistry has been established rapidly as one of the most valuable methods for the chemical transformation of complex molecules. Due to the rapid rates, clean conversions to the products, and compatibility of the reagents and reaction conditions even in complex settings, it has found applications in many molecule-oriented disciplines. From the vast landscape of click reactions, approaches have emerged in the past decade centered around oxidative processes to generate in situ highly reactive synthons from dormant functionalities. These approaches have led to some of the fastest click reactions know to date. Here, we review the various methods that can be used for such oxidation-induced "one-pot" click chemistry for the transformation of small molecules, materials, and biomolecules. A comprehensive overview is provided of oxidation conditions that induce a click reaction, and oxidation conditions are orthogonal to other click reactions so that sequential "click-oxidation-click" derivatization of molecules can be performed in one pot. Our review of the relevant literature shows that this strategy is emerging as a powerful approach for the preparation of high-performance materials and the generation of complex biomolecules. As such, we expect that oxidation-induced "one-pot" click chemistry will widen in scope substantially in the forthcoming years.

Abstract
A straightforward methodology for the regioselective synthesis of pyrazoles has been developed by a domino sequence based on a photoclick cycloaddition followed by a photocatalyzed oxidative deformylation reaction. Distinguishing features of this protocol include an unprecedented photoredox-catalyzed Norrish type fragmentation under green-light irradiation and the use of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes as synthetic equivalents of alkynes, where the aldehyde is acting as a novel photoremovable directing group.

Abstract
Site-selective protein functionalization serves as an invaluable tool for investigating protein structures and functions in complicated cellular environments and accomplishing semi-synthetic protein conjugates such as traceable therapeutics with improved features. Dual functionalization of proteins allows the incorporation of two different types of functionalities at distinct location(s), which greatly expands the features of native proteins. The attachment and crosstalk of a fluorescence donor and an acceptor dye provides fundamental insights into the folding and structural changes of proteins upon ligand binding in their native cellular environments. Moreover, the combination of drug molecules with different modes of action, imaging agents or stabilizing polymers provides new avenues to design precision protein therapeutics in a reproducible and well-characterizable fashion. This review aims to give a timely overview of the recent advancements and a future perspective of this relatively new research area. First, the chemical toolbox for dual functionalization of proteins is discussed and compared. The strengths and limitations of each strategy are summarized in order to enable readers to select the most appropriate method for their envisaged applications. Thereafter, representative applications of these dual-modified protein bioconjugates benefiting from the synergistic/additive properties of the two synthetic moieties are highlighted.

Abstract
Photochemistry provides a wide range of alternative reagents that hold potential for use in bimolecular functionalisation of proteins. Here, we report the synthesis and characterisation of metal ion binding chelates derivatised with disubstituted tetrazoles for the photoradiochemical labelling of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). The photophysical properties of tetrazoles featuring extended aromatic systems and auxochromic substituents to tune excitation toward longer wavelengths (365 and 395 nm) were studied. Two photoactivatable chelates based on desferrioxamine B (DFO) and the aza-macrocycle NODAGA were functionalised with a tetrazole and developed for protein labelling with 89 Zr, 64 Cu and 68 Ga radionuclides. DFO-tetrazole (1) was assessed by direct conjugation to formulated trastuzumab and subsequent radiolabelling with 89 Zr. Radiochemical studies and cellular-based binding assays demonstrated that the radiotracer remained stable in vitro retained high immunoreactivity. Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging and biodistribution studies were used to measure the tumour specific uptake and pharmacokinetic profile in mice bearing SK-OV-3 xenografts. Experiments demonstrate that tetrazole-based photochemistry is a viable approach for the light-induced synthesis of PET radiotracers.

Abstract
Protein chemical modifications are important tools for elucidating chemical and biological functions of proteins. Several strategies have been developed to implement these modifications, including enzymatic tailoring reactions, unnatural amino acid incorporation using the expanded genetic codes, and recognition-driven transformations. These technologies have been applied in metalloenzyme studies, specifically in dissecting their mechanisms, improving their enzymatic activities, and creating artificial enzymes with non-natural activities. Herein, we summarize some of the recent efforts in these areas with an emphasis on a few metalloenzyme case studies.

Abstract
The tetrazole-based photoclick chemistry has attracted considerable attention in virtue of its good biocompatibility, exclusive molecular reaction, and spatiotemporally controllable properties. Using this photoclick reaction, we designed an in situ, real-time fluorescence imaging system that targeted mitochondria and lysosomes in a spatiotemporally controllable manner. Upon irradiation, the pyrazoline fluorophore was generated in situ by the intramolecular tetrazole-alkene cycloaddition reaction ("photo-click chemistry"). This strategy exhibits features such as fast response, high efficiency, strong fluorescence intensity without background and superior stability. In addition, by integrating with an organelle-specific group, it has a good application for subcellular targeting imaging. Furthermore, the photo-responsive moiety Tet facilitates the probes, Mt-Tet and Ly-Tet, for the super-resolution imaging of subcellular structures.

Abstract
Recently, experimentalists have developed a green and efficient method to synthesize pyrazole-fused quinones through light-induced tetrazole-quinone 1,3-dipole cycloadditions. However, the underlying microscopic mechanisms remain to be clarified. In this work, we have employed several electronic structure calculation methods (MS-CASPT2, CASSCF, DFT) to systematically explore the microscopic mechanism of related light-induced reactions and deactivation pathways. Upon excitation with ultraviolet light, one of the original reactants 2-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-phenyl-2H-tetrazole (FPT) reaches its S1 excited state. After that, due to the ultrahigh energy and the small energy barrier, the FPT molecule breaks the N2–N3 and N4–C5 bonds sequentially, removing the nitrogen atom finally in the S1 state. Combined with the cleavage of the second N4–C5 bond, the system reaches its conical intersection region and deactivates ultrafast to the ground state, generating the active intermediate ((4-fluorophenyl)diazen-1-ium-1-ylidene) (phenyl)methanide (FPNI). Subsequently, the active intermediate FPIN can react with naphthoquinone in the ground state by overcoming an energy barrier of about 5.7 kcal mol−1, after which the 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-phenyl-1H-benzo[f]indazole-4,9(3aH, 9aH)-dione (FP2HQ) is formed. The FP2HQ can be oxidized to obtain the 1-(4-fluorophenyl)-3-phenyl-1H-benzo[f]indazole-4,9-dione (PFQ). Due to the high energy and small barrier, the entire reaction process can easily take place, which ultimately leads to the efficient reaction. Our present work not only explains the experimental mechanism in detail but can also be helpful for the future design of related photoinduced reactions with the aid of theoretical calculations. The microscopic mechanisms of light-induced tetrazole-quinone 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition are elucidated using high level MS-CASPT2 calculations.![]()

Abstract
ABSTRACT Research on polymer materials for additive manufacturing technology in biomedical applications is as promising as it is numerous, but biocompatibility of printable materials still remains a big challenge. Changes occurring during the 3D-printing processes itself may have adverse effects on the compatibility of the completed print. This prospective will put emphasis on the different additives and processes that can have a direct impact on biocompatibility during and after 3D printing of polymer materials.

Abstract
Photocaged cell-permeable ubiquitin probe holds promise in profiling the activity of cellular deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) with the much needed temporal control. Here we report a new photocaged cell-permeable ubiquitin probe that undergoes photoactivation upon 365 nm UV treatment and enables intracellular deubiquitinating enzyme profiling. We used a semisynthetic approach to generate modular ubiquitin-based probe containing a tetrazole-derived warhead at the C-terminus of ubiquitin and employed a cyclic polyarginine cell-penetrating peptide (cR10) conjugated to the N-terminus of ubiquitin via a disulfide linkage to deliver the probe into live cells. Upon 365 nm UV irradiation, the tetrazole group is converted to a nitrilimine intermediate in situ, which reacts with nearby nucleophilic cysteine residue from the DUB active site. The new photocaged cell-permeable probe showed good reactivity toward purified DUBs, including USP2, UCHL1, and UCHL3, upon photoirradiation. The Ub-tetrazole probe was also assessed in HeLa cell lysate and showed robust labeling only upon photoactivation. We further carried out protein profiling in intact HeLa cells using the new photocaged cell-permeable ubiquitin probe and identified DUBs captured by the probe using label-free quantitative (LFQ) mass spectrometry. Importantly, the photocaged cell-permeable ubiquitin probe captured DUBs specifically in respective G1/S and G2/M phases in synchronized HeLa cells. Moreover, using this probe DUBs were profiled at different time points following the release of HeLa cells from G1/S phase. Our results showed that photocaged cell-permeable probe represents a valuable new tool for achieving a better understanding of the cellular functions of DUBs.

Abstract
Photoexcited dihydronicotinamides like NADH and analogues have been found to generate alkyl radicals upon reductive decarboxylation of redox-active esters without auxiliary photocatalysts. This principle allowed aliphatic photocoupling between redox-active carboxylate derivatives and electron-poor olefins, displaying surprising water and air-tolerance and unusually high coupling rates in dilute conditions. The orthogonality of the reaction in the presence of other carboxylic acids and its utility in the functionalization of DNA is presented, notably using visible light in combination with NADH, the ubiquitous reductant of life.

Abstract
The advent of click chemistry has had a profound impact on many fields and fueled a need for reliable reactions to expand the click chemistry toolkit. However, developing new systems to fulfill the click chemistry criteria remains highly desirable yet challenging. Here, we report the development of light-induced primary amines and o-nitrobenzyl alcohols cyclization (PANAC) as a photoclick reaction via primary amines as direct click handle, to rapid and modular functionalization of diverse small molecules and native biomolecules. With intrinsic advantages of temporal control, good biocompatibility, reliable chemoselectivity, excellent efficiency, readily accessible reactants, operational simplicity and mild conditions, the PANAC photoclick is robust for direct diversification of pharmaceuticals and biorelevant molecules, lysine-specific modifications of unprotected peptides and native proteins in vitro, temporal profiling of endogenous kinases and organelle-targeted labeling in living systems. This strategy provides a versatile platform for organic synthesis, bioconjugation, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology and materials science.

Abstract
The need for alternative, complementary approaches to enable C-C bond formation within organic chemistry is an on-going challenge in the area. Of particular relevance are transformations that proceed in the absence of transition-metal reagents. In the current study, we report a comprehensive investigation of the coupling of nitrile imines and aryl boronic acids as an approach towards sustainable C-C bond formation. In situ generation of the highly reactive 1,3-dipole facilitates a Petasis-Mannich-type coupling via a nucleophilic boronate complex. The introduction of hydrazonyl chlorides as a complementary nitrile imine source to the 2,5-tetrazoles previously reported by our laboratory further broadens the scope of the approach. Additionally, we exemplify for the first time the extension of this protocol into another 1,3-dipole, through the synthesis of aryl ketone oximes from aryl boronic acids and nitrile N-oxides.

Abstract
Labelling of nucleic acids as biologically important cellular components is a crucial prerequisite for the visualization and understanding of biological processes. Efficient bioorthogonal chemistry and in particular cycloadditions fullfill the requirements for cellular applications. The broadly applied Cu(i)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), however, is limited to labellings in vitro and in fixed cells due to the cytotoxicity of copper salts. Currently, there are three types of copper-free cycloadditions used for nucleic acid labelling in the cellular environment: (i) the ring-strain promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), (ii) the "photoclick" 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions, and (iii) the Diels-Alder reactions with inverse electron demand (iEDDA). We review only those building blocks for chemical synthesis on solid phase of DNA and RNA and for enzymatic DNA and RNA preparation, which were applied for labelling of DNA and RNA in situ or in vivo, i.e. in the cellular environment, in fixed or in living cells, by the use of bioorthogonal cycloaddition chemistry. Additionally, we review the current status of orthogonal dual and triple labelling of DNA and RNA in vitro to demonstrate their potential for future applications in situ or in vivo.

Abstract
Since first reported at the beginning of the 21st century, bioorthogonal reactions have become powerful tools for investigating biological systems. Here, we review several classic and current bioorthogonal reactions, including the Staudinger-Bertozzi ligation, strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC), 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, and tetrazine-alkene ligation. We discuss the capabilities and limitations of the subset of current bioorthogonal reactions that can be "turned on" by exposure to light or an enzyme. Finally, we focus on our recently developed turn-on cyclopropenes, which can be activated for reaction with tetrazines by exposure to light or enzymes, like nitroreductase, depending on the modular reaction caging group appended to the cyclopropene. We discuss the caged cyclopropene's molecular design and synthesis, and we discuss experiments to evaluate and verify reactivity both in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive in situ self-assembly of small molecule probes into nanostructures has been promising for the construction of molecular probes for in vivo imaging. In the past few years, a number of intelligent molecular imaging probes with fluorescence, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron electron tomography (PET) or photoacoustic imaging (PA) modality have been developed based on the in situ self-assembly strategy. In this minireview, we summarize the recent advances in the development of different modality imaging probes through controlling in situ self-assembly for in vivo imaging of enzymatic activity. This review starts from the brief introduction of two different chemical approaches amenable for in situ self-assembly, including (1) stimuli-mediated proteolysis and (2) stimuli-triggered biocompatible reaction. We then discuss their applications in the design of fluorescence, MRI, PET, PA, and bimodality imaging probes for in vivo imaging of different enzymes, such as caspase-3, furin, gelatinase and phosphatase. Finally, we discuss the current and prospective challenges in the stimuli-responsive in situ self-assembly strategy for in vivo imaging.

Abstract
In this method paper, we describe the protocols for selective labeling of GCGR, a member of the class B GPCR family regulating glucose homeostasis, in live cells. A two-step procedure is presented in which a strained alkene chemical reporter is inserted into any desired location within the GPCR in the first step, followed by a robust bioorthogonal ligation reaction with a fluorophore-conjugated tetrazine or tetrazole reagent in the second step. The amber codon suppression strategy was adopted for site-specific incorporation of the strained alkene reporter, either spirohexene or trans-cyclooctene, in HEK293T cells. Subsequently, the inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction with an AF647-conjugated 3,6-di (2-pyridyl)-S-tetrazine (DpTz) was performed with the alkene-encoded GCGR on live-cell surface. Alternatively, a photo-induced cycloaddition with a Cy5-conjugated, sterically shielded tetrazole was carried out, giving rise to faster fluorescent labeling along with excellent selectivity. Owing to their robust reaction kinetics and excellent chemoselectivity, the bioorthogonal labeling protocols described here could be readily adapted to labeling any accessible protein targets, e.g., membrane proteins, in live cells.

Abstract
2,5-Diaryltetrazoles are a diverse range of compounds of considerable interest within the field of photochemistry as a valuable precursor of the nitrile imine 1,3-dipole. Current literature approaches toward this heterocycle remain unsuitable for the practical synthesis of a library of these derivatives. Herein, we disclose the development of a modular approach toward 2,5-diaryltetrazoles compatible with an array-type protocol, facilitated by a tandem Suzuki-hydrogenolysis approach.

Abstract
Sialic acid serves as an important determinant for profiling cell activities in diverse biological and pathological processes. The precise control of sialic acid labeling to visualize its biological pathways under endogenous conditions is significant but still challenging due to the lack of reliable methods. Herein, we developed an effective strategy to spatiotemporally label thesialic acids with a near-infrared (NIR) light activated upconverting nanoprobe (Tz-UCNP). With this photoclickable nanoprobe and a stable N-alkene-d-mannosamine (Ac4ManNIPFA), metabolically synthesized alkene sialic acids on the cell surface were labeled and imaged in real time through fluorogenic cycloaddition. More importantly, we achieved spatially selective visualization of sialic acids in specific tumor tissues of the mice under NIR light activation in a spatially controlled manner. This in situ controllable labeling strategy thus enables the metabolic labeling of specific sialic acids in complex biological systems.

Abstract
Fluorophores have transformed the way we study biological systems, enabling non-invasive studies in cells and intact organisms, which increase our understanding of complex processes at the molecular level. Fluorescent amino acids have become an essential chemical tool because they can be used to construct fluorescent macromolecules, such as peptides and proteins, without disrupting their native biomolecular properties. Fluorescent and fluorogenic amino acids with unique photophysical properties have been designed for tracking protein-protein interactions in situ or imaging nanoscopic events in real time with high spatial resolution. In this Review, we discuss advances in the design and synthesis of fluorescent amino acids and how they have contributed to the field of chemical biology in the past 10 years. Important areas of research that we review include novel methodologies to synthesize building blocks with tunable spectral properties, their integration into peptide and protein scaffolds using site-specific genetic encoding and bioorthogonal approaches, and their application to design novel artificial proteins, as well as to investigate biological processes in cells by means of optical imaging.

Abstract
Supramolecular encapsulation is known to alter chemical properties of guest molecules. We have applied this strategy of molecular encapsulation to temporally control the catalytic activity of a stable copper(I)–carbene catalyst. Encapsulation of the copper(I)–carbene catalyst by the supramolecular host cucurbit[7]uril (CB[7]) resulted in the complete inactivation of a copper‐catalyzed alkyne–azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction. The addition of a chemical signal achieved the near instantaneous activation of the catalyst, by releasing the catalyst from the inhibited CB[7] catalyst complex. To broaden the scope of our on‐demand CuAAC reaction, we demonstrated the protein labeling of vinculin with the copper(I)–carbene catalyst, to inhibit its activity by encapsulation with CB[7] and to initiate labeling at any moment by adding a specific signal molecule. Ultimately, this strategy allows for temporal control over copper‐catalyzed click chemistry, on small molecules as well as protein targets.

Abstract
The establishment of bioorthogonal chemistry is one of the most significant advances in chemical biology using exogenous chemistry to perturb and study biological processes. Photo-modulation of biological systems has realized temporal and spatial control on biomacromolecules in living systems. The combination of photo-modulation and bioorthogonal chemistry is therefore emerging as a new direction to develop new chemical biological tools with spatiotemporal resolution. This minireview will focus on recent development of bioorthogonal chemistry subject to spatiotemporal control through photo-irradiation. Different strategies to realize photo-control on bioorthogonal bond-forming reactions and biological applications of photo-controllable bioorthogonal reactions will be summarized to give a perspective on how the innovations on photo-chemistry can contribute to the development of optochemical biology. Future trends to develop more optochemical tools based on novel photochemistry will also be discussed to envision the development of chemistry-oriented optochemical biology.

Abstract
Abstract
The properties and applications of 2-methyl-(2H)-tetrazole-5-amino-saccharinate (2MTS) in catalysis and chelant-based chemotherapy stimulated investigations on its photostability. The photochemistry of monomeric 2MTS in solid argon (15 K) was compared with those of 2-methyl-(2H)-tetrazole-5-amine (2MT) and 1-methyl-(2H)-tetrazole-5-amine (1MT). Compounds were subjected to in situ narrowband UV-irradiation at different wavelengths. Reactions were followed by infrared spectroscopy, supported by B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) calculations. Photochemical pathways for 2MT and 2MTS proved similar but photodegradation of 2MTS was 20× slower, unraveling the photostabilizing effect of the saccharyl moiety that extends into the nitrilimine formed from 2MTS and its antiaromatic 1H-diazirene isomer, which proved photostable at 290 nm, unlike the 1H-diazirene formed from 2MT. Analysis of the photochemistries of 2MTS/2MT (250 nm) and 1MT (222 nm), including energy trends calculated for the isomeric C2H5N3 species postulated/observed from photolysis and EPR results, enabled a deeper insight into the photodegradation mechanisms of 1,5-substituted and 2,5-substituted tetrazoles. We postulate a pivotal singlet state imidoylnitrene species,
sN1, as common intermediate, which undergoes a Wolff-type isomerization to a stable carbodiimide. Photo-extrusion of N2 from 1,5-substituted tetrazoles generates
sN1 directly but from 2,5-substituted tetrazoles it originates a nitrilimine, then a diazirene, which finally leads to
sN1. Selective formation of cyanamide from 1MT requires photoisomerization between
sN1 and
sN2, accessible at 222 nm. EPR studies enabled the detection of methyl nitrene, arising from photolysis of 1H-diazirene intermediate.
