Das S, Pradhan TK, Samanta R. Recent Progress on Transition Metal Catalyzed Macrocyclizations Based on C-H Bond Activation at Heterocyclic Scaffolds. Chem Asian J 2024:e202400397. [PMID: 38924294 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202400397] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Revised: 06/19/2024] [Accepted: 06/22/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024]
Abstract
Macrocycles are essential in protein-protein interactions and the preferential intake of bioactive scaffolds. Macrocycles are commonly synthesized by late-stage macrolactonizations, macrolactamizations, transition metal-catalyzed ring-closing metathesis, S-S bond-forming reactions, and copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition. Recently, transition metal-catalyzed C-H activation strategies have gained significant interest among chemists to synthesize macrocycles. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the transition metal-catalyzed macrocyclization via C-H bond functionalization of heterocycle-containing peptides, annulations, and heterocycle-ring construction through direct C-H bond functionalization. In the first part, palladium salt catalyzed coupling with indolyl C(sp3)-H and C(sp2)-H bonds for macrocyclization is reported. The second part summarizes rhodium-catalyzed macrocyclizations via site-selective C-H bond functionalization. Earth-abundant, less toxic 3d metal salt Mn-catalyzed cyclizations are reported in the latter part. This summary is expected to spark interest in emerging methods of macrocycle production among organic synthesis and chemical biology practitioners, helping to develop the discipline. We hope that this mini-review will also inspire synthetic chemists to explore new and broadly applicable C-C bond-forming strategies for macrocyclization via intramolecular C-H activation.

Abstract
Backbone-enabled site-selective modification of peptides with benzoquinone via Pd-catalyzed δ-C(sp2)-H functionalization has been achieved. The amide groups of peptides serve as internal directional groups, facilitating C-H functionalization through a kinetically less favored six-membered palladacycle. This methodology presents novel opportunities for the late-stage site-selective diversification of peptides.

Abstract
Cyclic peptides have attracted tremendous attention in the pharmaceutical industry owing to their excellent cell penetrability, stability, thermostability, and drug-like properties. However, the currently available facile methodologies for creating such peptides are rather limited. Herein, we report an efficient and direct peptide cyclization via rhodium(III)-catalyzed C(7)-H maleimidation. Notably, this catalytical system has excellent regioselectivity and high tolerance of functional groups which enable late-stage cyclization of peptides. This architecture of cyclic peptides exhibits higher bioactivity than its parent linear peptides. Moreover, the Trp-substituted maleimide displays excellent reactivity toward Michael addition, indicating its potential as a click functional group for applications in chemical biology and medicinal chemistry. As a proof of principle, RGD-GFLG-DOX, which is a peptide-drug-conjugate, is constructed and it displays a strong binding affinity and high antiproliferative activity toward integrin-αvβ3 overexpressed cancer cell lines. The proposed strategy for rapid preparation of stapled peptides would be a robust tool for creating peptide-drug conjugates.

Abstract
Late-stage diversification of structurally complex amino acids and peptides provides tremendous potential for drug discovery and molecular imaging. Specifically, labeling peptides with fluorescent tags is one of the most important methods for visualizing their mode of operation. Despite major recent advances in the field, direct molecular peptide labeling by C-H activation is largely limited to dyes with relatively short emission wavelengths, leading to high background signals and poor signal-to-noise ratios. In sharp contrast, here we report on the fluorescent labeling of peptides catalyzed by non-toxic manganese(i) via C(sp2)-H alkenylation in chemo- and site-selective manners, providing modular access to novel near-infrared (NIR) nitrobenzodiazole-based peptide fluorogenic probes.

Abstract
Site-predictable and chemoselective C-H bond functionalization reactions offer synthetically powerful strategies for the step-economic diversification of both feedstock and fine chemicals. Many transition-metal-catalyzed methods have emerged for the selective activation and functionalization of C-H bonds. However, challenges of regio- and chemoselectivity have emerged with application to highly complex molecules bearing significant functional group density and diversity. As molecular complexity increases within molecular structures the risks of catalyst intolerance and limited applicability grow with the number of functional groups and potentially Lewis basic heteroatoms. Given the abundance of C-H bonds within highly complex and already diversified molecules such as pharmaceuticals, natural products, and materials, design and selection of reaction conditions and tolerant catalysts has proved critical for successful direct functionalization. As such, innovations within transition-metal-catalyzed C-H bond functionalization for the direct formation of carbon-carbon bonds have been discovered and developed to overcome these challenges and limitations. This review highlights progress made for the direct metal-catalyzed C-C bond forming reactions including alkylation, methylation, arylation, and olefination of C-H bonds within complex targets.

This strategy has the following merits: a broad substrate scope, selective diarylation of peptides, and gram-scale synthesis. Furthermore, this strategy can be successfully utilized to synthesize peptide-peptide conjugates.

Abstract
Peptides containing thiazole fragments represent a large group of bioactive compounds with potential medicinal applications. However, methods for efficient synthesis of these compounds with structural diversity are limited. Herein, we report a method for modification and macrocyclization of thiazole-containing peptides through palladium-catalyzed δ-C(sp2)-H olefination. In this protocol, the thiazole and neighboring amide bonds act as directing groups, which allows site-specific olefination of phenylalanine, tryptophan and tyrosine residues. This chemistry exhibits broad substrate scope and provides facile access to peptide-peptide conjugates and peptide macrocycles. Our results highlight the potency and applicability of thiazole motifs in promoting Pd-catalyzed functionalization of peptides.

Abstract
An efficient Rh(III)-catalyzed straightforward strategy is developed for the synthesis of quinoline braced cyclophane macrocycles via methyl (sp3) C-H functionalization. The method is mild, simple and regioselective with various ring sizes and has good functional group tolerance. The method proceeds via C8-methyl metalation, metal-carbene formation and a subsequent migratory insertion. High dilution is not necessary for this macrocyclization and the only byproduct is nitrogen. A preliminary investigation shows that the C-H metalation step is the rate-determining step.

Abstract
Peptide modifications can unlock a variety of compounds with structural diversity and abundant biological activity. In nature, peptide modifications, such as functionalisation at the side-chain position of amino acids, are performed using post-translational modification enzymes or incorporation of unnatural amino acids. However, accessing these modifications remains a challenge for organic chemists. During the past decades, selective C-H activation/functionalisation has attracted considerable attention in synthetic organic chemistry as a pathway to peptide modification. Various directing group strategies have been discovered that assist selective C-H activation. In particular, bidentate directing groups that enable tuneable and reversible coordination are now recognised as one of the most efficient methods for the site-selective C-H activation and functionalisation of numerous families of organic compounds. Synthetic peptide chemists have harnessed bidentate directing group strategies for selective functionalisation of the β- and γ-positions of amino acids. This method has been expanded and recognised as an effective device for the late stage macrocyclisation and total synthesis of complex peptide natural products. In this review, we discuss various β-, γ-, and δ-C(sp3)-H bond functionalisation reactions of amino acids for the formation of C-X bonds with the aid of directing groups and their application in late-stage macrocyclisation and the total synthesis of complex peptide natural products.
