Mechanistic Basis of the Cu(OAc) 2 Catalyzed Azide-Ynamine (3 + 2) Cycloaddition Reaction. J Am Chem Soc 2024; 146:13558-13570. [PMID: 38712910 PMCID: PMC11099971 DOI: 10.1021/jacs.4c03348] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/07/2024] [Revised: 04/22/2024] [Accepted: 04/23/2024] [Indexed: 05/08/2024]
Abstract
The Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction is used as a ligation tool throughout chemical and biological sciences. Despite the pervasiveness of CuAAC, there is a need to develop more efficient methods to form 1,4-triazole ligated products with low loadings of Cu. In this paper, we disclose a mechanistic model for the ynamine-azide (3 + 2) cycloadditions catalyzed by copper(II) acetate. Using multinuclear nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, and high-performance liquid chromatography analyses, a dual catalytic cycle is identified. First, the formation of a diyne species via Glaser-Hay coupling of a terminal ynamine forms a Cu(I) species competent to catalyze an ynamine-azide (3 + 2) cycloaddition. Second, the benzimidazole unit of the ynamine structure has multiple roles: assisting C-H activation, Cu coordination, and the formation of a postreaction resting state Cu complex after completion of the (3 + 2) cycloaddition. Finally, reactivation of the Cu resting state complex is shown by the addition of isotopically labeled ynamine and azide substrates to form a labeled 1,4-triazole product. This work provides a mechanistic basis for the use of mixed valency binuclear catalytic Cu species in conjunction with Cu-coordinating alkynes to afford superior reactivity in CuAAC reactions. Additionally, these data show how the CuAAC reaction kinetics can be modulated by changes to the alkyne substrate, which then has a predictable effect on the reaction mechanism.

Abstract
Traditional approaches to bio-orthogonal reaction discovery have focused on developing reagent pairs that react with each other faster than they are metabolically degraded. Glutathione (GSH) is typically responsible for the deactivation of most bio-orthogonal reagents. Here we demonstrate that GSH promotes a Cu-catalysed (3+2) cycloaddition reaction between an ynamine and an azide. We show that GSH acts as a redox modulator to control the Cu oxidation state in these cycloadditions. Rate enhancement of this reaction is specific for ynamine substrates and is tuneable by the Cu:GSH ratio. This unique GSH-mediated reactivity gradient is then utilised in the dual sequential bio-orthogonal labelling of peptides and oligonucleotides via two distinct chemoselective (3+2) cycloadditions.

Abstract
The thermal distillation of crude oil mixtures is an energy-intensive process, accounting for nearly 1% of global energy consumption. Membrane-based separations are an appealing alternative or tandem process to distillation due to intrinsic energy efficiency advantages. We developed a family of spirocyclic polytriazoles from structurally diverse monomers for membrane applications. The resulting polymers were prepared by a convenient step-growth method using copper-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition, providing very fast reaction rates, high molecular weights and solubilities in common organic solvents and non-interconnected microporosity. Fractionation of whole Arabian light crude oil and atmospheric tower bottom feeds using these materials enriched the low-boiling-point components and removed trace heteroatom and metal impurities (comparable performance with the lighter feed as the commercial polyimide, Matrimid), demonstrating opportunities to reduce the energy cost of crude oil distillation with tandem membrane processes. Membrane-based molecular separation under these demanding conditions is made possible by high thermal stability and a moderate level of dynamic chain mobility, leading to transient interconnections between micropores, as revealed by the calculations of static and swollen pore structures.

Abstract
Oligonucleotides are powerful molecules for programming function and assembly. When arrayed on nanoparticle scaffolds in high density, the resulting molecules, spherical nucleic acids (SNAs), become imbued with unique properties. We used the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition to graft oligonucleotides on Qβ virus-like particles to see if such structures also gain SNA-like behavior. Copper-binding ligands were shown to promote the click reaction without degrading oligonucleotide substrates. Reactions were first optimized with a small-molecule fluorogenic reporter and were then applied to the more challenging synthesis of polyvalent protein nanoparticle-oligonucleotide conjugates. The resulting particles exhibited the enhanced cellular uptake and protection from nuclease-mediated oligonucleotide cleavage characteristic of SNAs, had similar residence time in the liver relative to unmodified particles, and were somewhat shielded from immune recognition, resulting in nearly 10-fold lower antibody titers relative to unmodified particles. Oligonucleotide-functionalized virus-like particles thus provide an interesting option for protein nanoparticle-mediated delivery of functional molecules.

Abstract
Genetic code expansion has allowed for extraordinary advances in enhancing protein chemical diversity and functionality, but there remains a critical need for understanding and engineering genetic code expansion systems for improved efficiency. Incorporation of noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) at stop codons provides a site-specific method for introducing unique chemistry into proteins, though often at reduced yields compared to wild-type proteins. A powerful platform for ncAA incorporation supports both the expression and evaluation of chemically diverse proteins for a broad range of applications. In yeast, ncAAs have been used to study dynamic cellular processes such as protein-protein interactions and also allow for exploration of eukaryotic-specific biology such as epigenetics. Furthermore, yeast display is an advantageous technology for engineering and screening the properties of proteins in high throughput. The protocols presented in this chapter describe detailed methods for the yeast-based genetic encoding of ncAAs in proteins intracellularly or on the yeast surface. In addition, methods are presented for modifying proteins on the yeast surface using bioorthogonal chemical reactions and evaluating reaction efficiency. Finally, protocols are included for the preparation of libraries that involve genetic code expansion. Libraries of proteins that contain ncAAs or libraries of the cellular machinery required to encode ncAAs can be constructed and screened in high throughput for many biological and chemical applications. Efficient incorporation of ncAAs facilitates elucidation of fundamental eukaryotic biology and advances tools for enzyme and genome engineering to evolve host cells that are better able to accommodate alternative genetic codes.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal cleavage chemistry has been rapidly emerging as a powerful tool for manipulation and gain-of-function studies of biomolecules in living systems. While the initial bond formation-centered bioorthogonal reactions have been widely adopted for labeling, tracing, and capturing biomolecules, the newly developed bond cleavage-enabled bioorthogonal reactions have opened new possibilities for rescuing small molecules as well as biomacromolecules in living systems, allowing multidimensional controls over biological processes in vitro and in vivo. In this Outlook, we first summarized the development and applications of bioorthogonal cleavage reactions (BCRs) that restore the functions of chemical structures as well as more complex networks, including the liberation of prodrugs, release of bioconjugates, and in situ reactivation of intracellular proteins. As we embarked on this fruitful progress, we outlined the unmet scientific needs and future directions along this exciting avenue. We believe that the potential of BCRs will be further unleashed when combined with other frontier technologies, such as genetic code expansion and proximity-enabled chemical labeling.

Abstract
In the two decades since the introduction of the "click chemistry" concept, the toolbox of "click reactions" has continually expanded, enabling chemists, materials scientists, and biologists to rapidly and selectively build complexity for their applications of interest. Similarly, selective and efficient covalent bond breaking reactions have provided and will continue to provide transformative advances. Here, we review key examples and applications of efficient, selective covalent bond cleavage reactions, which we refer to herein as "clip reactions." The strategic application of clip reactions offers opportunities to tailor the compositions and structures of complex (bio)(macro)molecular systems with exquisite control. Working in concert, click chemistry and clip chemistry offer scientists and engineers powerful methods to address next-generation challenges across the chemical sciences.

Abstract
β-Lactams, the cornerstone of antibiotherapy, inhibit multiple and partially redundant targets referred to as transpeptidases or penicillin-binding proteins. These enzymes catalyze the essential cross-linking step of the polymerization of cell wall peptidoglycan. The understanding of the mechanisms of action of β-lactams and of resistance to these drugs requires the development of reliable methods to characterize their targets. Here, we describe an activity-based purification method of β-lactam targets based on click and release chemistry. We synthesized alkyne-carbapenems with suitable properties with respect to the kinetics of acylation of a model target, the Ldtfm L,D-transpeptidase, the stability of the resulting acylenzyme, and the reactivity of the alkyne for the cycloaddition of an azido probe containing a biotin moiety for affinity purification and a bioorthogonal cleavable linker. The probe provided access to the fluorescent target in a single click and release step.

Abstract
Antibodies possess properties that make them valuable as therapeutics, diagnostics, and basic research tools. However, antibody chemical reactivity and covalent antigen binding are constrained, or even prevented, by the narrow range of chemistries encoded in canonical amino acids. In this work, we investigate strategies for leveraging an expanded range of chemical functionality using yeast displayed antibodies containing noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) in or near antibody complementarity determining regions (CDRs). To enable systematic characterization of the effects of ncAA incorporation on antibody function, we first investigated whether diversification of a single antibody loop would support the isolation of binding clones against immunoglobulins from three species. We constructed and screened a billion-member library containing canonical amino acid diversity and loop length diversity only within the third complementarity determining region of the heavy chain (CDR-H3). Isolated clones exhibited moderate affinities (double- to triple-digit nanomolar affinities) and, in several cases, single-species specificity, confirming that antibody specificity can be mediated by a single CDR. This constrained diversity enabled the utilization of additional CDRs for the installation of chemically reactive and photo-cross-linkable ncAAs. Binding studies of ncAA-substituted antibodies revealed that ncAA incorporation is reasonably well tolerated, with observed changes in affinity occurring as a function of ncAA side chain identity, substitution site, and the ncAA incorporation machinery used. Multiple azide-containing ncAAs supported copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) without the abrogation of binding function. Similarly, several alkyne substitutions facilitated CuAAC without the apparent disruption of binding. Finally, antibodies substituted with a photo-cross-linkable ncAA were evaluated for ultraviolet-mediated cross-linking on the yeast surface. Competition-based assays revealed position-dependent covalent linkages, strongly suggesting successful cross-linking. Key findings regarding CuAAC reactions and photo-cross-linking on the yeast surface were confirmed using soluble forms of ncAA-substituted clones. The consistency of findings on the yeast surface and in solution suggest that chemical diversification can be incorporated into yeast display screening approaches. Taken together, our results highlight the power of integrating the use of yeast display and ncAAs in search of proteins with "chemically augmented" binding functions. This includes strategies for systematically introducing small molecule functionality within binding protein structures and evaluating protein-based covalent target binding. The efficient preparation and chemical diversification of antibodies on the yeast surface open up new possibilities for discovering "drug-like" protein leads in high throughput.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) are highly effective antigen-presenting cells that shape immune responses. Vaccines that deliver antigen to the DCs can harness their power. DC surface lectins recognize glycans not typically present on host tissue to facilitate antigen uptake and presentation. Vaccines that target these surface lectins should offer improved antigen delivery, but their efficacy will depend on how lectin targeting influences the T cell subtypes that result. We examined how antigen structure influences uptake and signaling from the C-type lectin DC-SIGN (dendritic cell-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing nonintegrin or CD209). Virus-like particles (VLPs) were engineered from bacteriophage Qβ to present an array of mannoside ligands. The VLPs were taken up by DCs and efficiently trafficked to endosomes. The signaling that ensued depended on the ligand displayed on the VLP: only those particles densely functionalized with an aryl mannoside, Qβ-Man540, elicited DC maturation and induced the expression of the proinflammatory cytokines characteristic of a T helper type 1 (TH1)-like immune response. This effect was traced to differential binding to DC-SIGN at the acidic pH of the endosome. Mice immunized with a VLP bearing the aryl mannoside, and a peptide antigen (Qβ-Ova-Man540) had antigen-specific responses, including the production of CD4+ T cells producing the activating cytokines interferon-γ and tumor necrosis factor-α. A TH1 response is critical for intracellular pathogens (e.g., viruses) and cancer; thus, our data highlight the value of targeting DC lectins for antigen delivery and validate the utility of DC-targeted VLPs as vaccine vehicles that induce cellular immunity.

Abstract
Glycoclusters with three, four, and six arms of glycosyl triazoles were designed, synthesized, and characterized. The self-assembling properties of these molecules and their catalytic activity as ligands in copper-catalyzed azide and alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions were studied. The compounds with a lower number of branches exhibit excellent gelation properties and can function as supramolecular gelators. The resulting gels were characterized using optical microcopy and atomic force microscopy. The glycoconjugates containing six branches showed significant catalytic activity for copper sulfate mediated cycloaddition reactions. In aqueous solutions, 1 mol % of glycoclusters to substrates was efficient at accelerating these reactions. Several trimeric compounds were found to be capable of forming co-gels with the catalytically active hexameric compounds. Using the organogels formed by the glycoconjugates as supramolecular catalysts, efficient catalysis was demonstrated for several CuAAC reactions. The metallogels with CuSO4 were also prepared as gel columns, which can be reused for the cycloaddition reactions several times. These include the preparation of a few glycosyl triazoles and aryl triazoles and isoxazoles. We expect that these sugar-based soft biomaterials will have applications beyond supramolecular catalysis for copper-catalyzed cycloaddition reactions. They may also be useful as ligands or gel matrixes for other metal-ion catalyzed organic reactions.

Abstract
Modular strategies to fabricate gels with tailorable chemical functionalities are relevant to applications spanning from biomedicine to analytical chemistry. Here, the properties of clickable poly(acrylamide-co-propargyl acrylate) (pAPA) hydrogels are modified via sequential in-gel copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions. Under optimized conditions, each in-gel CuAAC reaction proceeds with rate constants of ~0.003 s-1, ensuring uniform modifications for gels < 200 μm thick. Using the modular functionalization approach and a cleavable disulfide linker, pAPA gels were modified with benzophenone and acrylate groups. Benzophenone groups allow gel functionalization with unmodified proteins using photoactivation. Acrylate groups enabled copolymer grafting onto the gels. To release the functionalized unit, pAPA gels were treated with disulfide reducing agents, which triggered ~50 % release of immobilized protein and grafted copolymers. The molecular mass of grafted copolymers (~6.2 kDa) was estimated by monitoring the release process, expanding the tools available to characterize copolymers grafted onto hydrogels. Investigation of the efficiency of in-gel CuAAC reactions revealed limitations of the sequential modification approach, as well as guidelines to convert a pAPA gel with a single functional group into a gel with three distinct functionalities. Taken together, we see this modular framework to engineer multifunctional hydrogels as benefiting applications of hydrogels in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and separation science.

Abstract
Disulfide bonds are a significant motif in life and drug-delivery systems. In particular, steric hindrance and stereoscopic disulfide linkers are closely associated with the stability of antibody–drug conjugates, which affects the potency, selectivity, and pharmacokinetics of drugs. However, limited availability and diversity of tertiary thiols impede the construction of steric and stereoscopic disulfides for cross-linkage in biochemistry and pharmaceuticals. Through modulating the mask effect of disulfurating reagents, we develop a facile and robust strategy for construction of diverse steric and stereoscopic disulfides via N-dithiophthalimides. The practical cross-linkage of biomolecules including amino acids, saccharides, and nucleosides with different drugs and fluorescent molecules is successfully established through hindered disulfide linkers. A series of steric and stereoscopic disulfides are constructed with N-dithiophthalimides, enabling the cross-linkage of biomolecules, drugs and fluorescent molecules.![]()

Abstract
Kinugasa reactions hold potential for bioorthogonal chemistry in that the reagents can be biocompatible. Unlike other bioorthogonal reaction products, β-lactams are potentially reactive, which can be useful for synthesizing new biomaterials. A limiting factor for applications consists of slow reaction rates. Herein, we report an optimized aqueous copper(i)-catalyzed alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition involving rearrangement (CuANCR) with rate accelerations made possible by the use of surfactant micelles. We have investigated the factors that accelerate the aqueous CuANCR reaction and demonstrate enhanced modification of a model membrane-associated peptide. We discovered that lipids/surfactants and alkyne structure have a significant impact on the reaction rate, with biological lipids and electron-poor alkynes showing greater reactivity. These new findings have implications for the use of CuANCR for modifying integral membrane proteins as well as live cell labelling and other bioorthogonal applications.

Abstract
Click chemistry is a concept in which modular synthesis is used to rapidly find new molecules with desirable properties1. Copper(I)-catalysed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) triazole annulation and sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx) catalysis are widely regarded as click reactions2-4, providing rapid access to their products in yields approaching 100% while being largely orthogonal to other reactions. However, in the case of CuAAC reactions, the availability of azide reagents is limited owing to their potential toxicity and the risk of explosion involved in their preparation. Here we report another reaction to add to the click reaction family: the formation of azides from primary amines, one of the most abundant functional groups5. The reaction uses just one equivalent of a simple diazotizing species, fluorosulfuryl azide6-11 (FSO2N3), and enables the preparation of over 1,200 azides on 96-well plates in a safe and practical manner. This reliable transformation is a powerful tool for the CuAAC triazole annulation, the most widely used click reaction at present. This method greatly expands the number of accessible azides and 1,2,3-triazoles and, given the ubiquity of the CuAAC reaction, it should find application in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, chemical biology and materials science.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal reactions that proceed readily under physiological conditions without interference from biomolecules have found widespread application in the life sciences. Complementary to the bioorthogonal reactions that ligate two molecules, reactions that release a molecule or cleave a linker are increasingly attracting interest. Such dissociative bioorthogonal reactions have a broad spectrum of uses, for example, in controlling bio-macromolecule activity, in drug delivery, and in diagnostic assays. This review article summarizes the developed bioorthogonal reactions linked to a release step, outlines representative areas of the applications of such reactions, and discusses aspects that require further improvement.

Abstract
Engineering protein translation machinery to incorporate noncanonical amino acids (ncAAs) into proteins has advanced applications ranging from proteomics to single-molecule studies. As applications of ncAAs emerge, efficient ncAA incorporation is crucial to exploiting unique chemistries. We have established a quantitative reporter platform to evaluate ncAA incorporation in response to the TAG (amber) codon in yeast. This yeast display-based reporter utilizes an antibody fragment containing an amber codon at which a ncAA is incorporated when the appropriate orthogonal translation system (OTS) is present. Epitope tags at both termini allow for flow cytometry-based end point readouts of OTS efficiency and fidelity. Using this reporter, we evaluated several factors that influence amber suppression, including the amber codon position and different aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA (aaRS/tRNA) pairs. Interestingly, previously described aaRSs that evolved from different parent enzymes to incorporate O-methyl-l-tyrosine exhibit vastly different behavior. Escherichia coli leucyl-tRNA synthetase variants demonstrated efficient incorporation of a range of ncAAs, and we discovered unreported activities of several variants. Compared to a plate reader-based reporter, our assay yields more precise bulk-level measurements while also supporting single-cell readouts compatible with cell sorting. This platform is expected to allow quantitative elucidation of principles dictating efficient stop codon suppression and evolution of next-generation stop codon suppression systems to further enhance genetic code manipulation in eukaryotes. These efforts will improve our understanding of how the genetic code can be further evolved while expanding the range of chemical diversity available in proteins for applications ranging from fundamental epigenetics studies to engineering new classes of therapeutics.

Abstract
The conjugation of biomolecules can impart materials with the bioactivity necessary to modulate specific cell behaviors. While the biological roles of particular polypeptide, oligonucleotide, and glycan structures have been extensively reviewed, along with the influence of attachment on material structure and function, the key role played by the conjugation strategy in determining activity is often overlooked. In this review, we focus on the chemistry of biomolecule conjugation and provide a comprehensive overview of the key strategies for achieving controlled biomaterial functionalization. No universal method exists to provide optimal attachment, and here we will discuss both the relative advantages and disadvantages of each technique. In doing so, we highlight the importance of carefully considering the impact and suitability of a particular technique during biomaterial design.

Abstract
The copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) has proven to be a reliable, high-efficiency method for modification of protein scaffolds. This "click" reaction offers specificity and nearly quantitative yields even at low reagent concentrations. While robust, CuAAC still requires proper setup to achieve the high efficiency characteristic of this reaction, as well as to avoid degradation of sensitive substrates. Detailed herein is a generic CuAAC protocol for protein modification. Key features include the use of DMSO and triazole-based accelerating ligands for protection against reactive oxygen species, as well as aminoguanidine for intercepting deleterious ascorbate by-products formed during the bioconjugation.

Abstract
The emerging inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction stands out from other bioorthogonal reactions by virtue of its unmatchable kinetics, excellent orthogonality and biocompatibility. With the recent discovery of novel dienophiles and optimal tetrazine coupling partners, attention has now been turned to the use of IEDDA approaches in basic biology, imaging and therapeutics. Here we review this bioorthogonal reaction and its promising applications for live cell and animal studies. We first discuss the key factors that contribute to the fast IEDDA kinetics and describe the most recent advances in the synthesis of tetrazine and dienophile coupling partners. Both coupling partners have been incorporated into proteins for tracking and imaging by use of fluorogenic tetrazines that become strongly fluorescent upon reaction. Selected notable examples of such applications are presented. The exceptional fast kinetics of this catalyst-free reaction, even using low concentrations of coupling partners, make it amenable for in vivo radiolabelling using pretargeting methodologies, which are also discussed. Finally, IEDDA reactions have recently found use in bioorthogonal decaging to activate proteins or drugs in gain-of-function strategies. We conclude by showing applications of the IEDDA reaction in the construction of biomaterials that are used for drug delivery and multimodal imaging, among others. The use and utility of the IEDDA reaction is interdisciplinary and promises to revolutionize chemical biology, radiochemistry and materials science.

Abstract
Dynamic single-chain polymeric nanoparticles (SCPNs) are intriguing, bioinspired architectures that result from the collapse or folding of an individual polymer chain into a nanometer-sized particle. Here we present a detailed biophysical study on the behavior of dynamic SCPNs in living cells and an evaluation of their catalytic functionality in such a complex medium. We first developed a number of delivery strategies that allowed the selective localization of SCPNs in different cellular compartments. Live/dead tests showed that the SCPNs were not toxic to cells while spectral imaging revealed that SCPNs provide a structural shielding and reduced the influence from the outer biological media. The ability of SCPNs to act as catalysts in biological media was first assessed by investigating their potential for reactive oxygen species generation. With porphyrins covalently attached to the SCPNs, singlet oxygen was generated upon irradiation with light, inducing spatially controlled cell death. In addition, Cu(I)- and Pd(II)-based SCPNs were prepared and these catalysts were screened in vitro and studied in cellular environments for the carbamate cleavage reaction of rhodamine-based substrates. This is a model reaction for the uncaging of bioactive compounds such as cytotoxic drugs for catalysis-based cancer therapy. We observed that the rate of the deprotection depends on both the organometallic catalysts and the nature of the protective group. The rate reduces from in vitro to the biological environment, indicating a strong influence of biomolecules on catalyst performance. The Cu(I)-based SCPNs in combination with the dimethylpropargyloxycarbonyl protective group showed the best performances both in vitro and in biological environment, making this group promising in biomedical applications.

Abstract
Enzyme-activated prodrug therapy (EAPT) is a widely-used and effective treatment method for cancer by converting prodrugs into drugs at the demanded time and space, whose key step is prodrug activation. Traditional prodrug activations are mostly dependent on natural enzymes, which are unstable, expensive and hard to be functionalized. The emerging enzyme mimics, especially the metal-contained enzyme mimics (MEMs), provide a potential chance for improving the traditional EAPT because of their high stability, low cost and easiness of preparation and functionalization. The existing MEMs can be classified into three categories: catalytic core-scaffold MEM (csMEM), nanoparticle MEM (npMEMs) and metal-organic framework (MOF) MEM (mofMEM). These MEMs can mimic diverse functions corresponding to natural enzymes, and some of which are potentially used in prodrug activation, such as DNase, RNase, carbonate esterase, etc. In this review, we briefly summarize the MEMs according to their structure and composition, and highlight the successful and potential applications for prodrug activation mediated by hydrolase-like and oxidoreductase-like MEMs.

Abstract
The development of modular and efficient methods to functionalize RNA with biophysical probes is very important in advancing the understanding of the structural and functional relevance of RNA in various cellular events. Herein, we demonstrate a two-step bioorthogonal chemical functionalization approach for the conjugation of multiple probes onto RNA transcripts using a 5-vinyl-modified uridine nucleotide analog (VUTP). VUTP, containing a structurally noninvasive and versatile chemoselective handle, was efficiently incorporated into RNA transcripts by in vitro transcription reactions. Furthermore, we show for the first time the use of a palladium-mediated oxidative Heck reaction in functionalizing RNA with fluorogenic probes by reacting vinyl-labeled RNA transcripts with appropriate boronic acid substrates. The vinyl label also permitted the post-transcriptional functionalization of RNA by a reagent-free inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) reaction in the presence of tetrazine substrates. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the incorporation of VUTP provides newer possibilities for the modular functionalization of RNA with variety of reporters.

Abstract
We report a kinetic and spectroscopic analysis of alkyne-dependent chemoselectivity in the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne click (CuAAC) reaction. Studies of six alkyne subtypes reveal that the rate-determining step (RDS) of an aromatic ynamine class is shifted from acetylide formation to the azide ligation/migratory insertion event allowing chemoselectivity independent of overall rate.

Abstract
The clinical validation of histone deacetylase inhibition as a cancer therapeutic modality has stimulated interest in the development of new generation of potent and tumor selective histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi). With the goal of selective delivery of the HDACi to melanoma cells, we incorporated the benzamide, a high affinity melanin-binding template, into the design of HDACi to generate a new series of compounds 10a-b and 11a-b which display high potency towards HDAC1 and HDAC6. However, these compounds have attenuated antiproliferative activities relative to the untargeted HDACi. An alternative strategy furnished compound 14, a prodrug bearing the benzamide template linked via a labile bond to a hydroxamate-based HDACi. This pro-drug compound showed promising antiproliferative activity and warrant further study.

Abstract
This work represents our initial effort in identifying azide/alkyne pairs for optimal reactivity in copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions. In previous works, we have identified chelating azides, in particular 2-picolyl azide, as “privileged” azide substrates with high CuAAC reactivity. In the current work, two types of alkynes are shown to undergo rapid CuAAC reactions under both copper(II)- (via an induction period) and copper(I)-catalyzed conditions. The first type of the alkynes bears relatively acidic ethynyl C-H bonds, while the second type contains an N-(triazolylmethyl)propargylic moiety that produces a self-accelerating effect. The rankings of reactivity under both copper(II)- and copper(I)-catalyzed conditions are provided. The observations on how other reaction parameters such as accelerating ligand, reducing agent, or identity of azide alter the relative reactivity of alkynes are described and, to the best of our ability, explained.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal chemical reactions are a thriving area of chemical research in recent years as an unprecedented technique to dissect native biological processes through chemistry-enabled strategies. However, current concepts of bioorthogonal chemistry have largely centered on 'bond formation' reactions between two mutually reactive bioorthogonal handles. Recently, in a reverse strategy, a collection of 'bond cleavage' reactions has emerged with excellent biocompatibility. These reactions have expanded our bioorthogonal chemistry repertoire, enabling an array of exciting new biological applications that range from the chemically controlled spatial and temporal activation of intracellular proteins and small-molecule drugs to the direct manipulation of intact cells under physiological conditions. Here we highlight the development and applications of these bioorthogonal cleavage reactions. Furthermore, we lay out challenges and propose future directions along this appealing avenue of research.

Abstract
Aromatic ynamines or N-alkynylheteroarenes are highly reactive alkyne components in Cu-catalyzed Huisgen [3 + 2] cycloaddition ("click") reactions. This enhanced reactivity enables the chemoselective formation of 1,4-triazoles using the representative aromatic ynamine N-ethynylbenzimidazole in the presence of a competing aliphatic alkyne substrate. The unique chemoselectivity profile of N-ethynylbenzimidazole is further demonstrated by the sequential click ligation of a series of highly functionalized azides using a heterobifunctional diyne, dispelling the need for alkyne protecting groups.

Abstract
Photoinitiation of polymerizations based on the copper(i)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction enables spatio-temporal control and the formation of mechanically robust, highly glassy photopolymers. Here, we investigated several critical factors influencing photo-CuAAC polymerization kinetics via systematic variation of reaction conditions such as the physicochemical nature of the monomers; the copper salt and photoinitiator types and concentrations; light intensity; exposure time and solvent content. Real time Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to monitor the polymerization kinetics in situ. Six different di-functional azide monomers and four different tri-functional alkyne monomers containing either aliphatic, aromatic, ether and/or carbamate substituents were synthesized and polymerized. Replacing carbamate structures with ether moieties in the monomers enabled an increase in conversion from 65% to 90% under similar irradiation conditions. The carbamate results in stiffer monomers and higher viscosity mixtures indicating that chain mobility and diffusion are key factors that determine the CuAAC network formation kinetics. Photoinitiation rates were manipulated by altering various aspects of the photo-reduction step; ultimately, a loading above 3 mol% per functional group for both the copper catalyst and the photoinitiator showed little or no rate dependence on concentration while a loading below 3 mol% exhibited 1st order rate dependence. Furthermore, a photoinitiating system consisting of camphorquinone resulted in 60% conversion in the dark after only 1 minute of 75 mW cm-2 light exposure at 400-500 nm, highlighting a unique characteristic of the CuAAC photopolymerization enabled by the combination of the copper(i)'s catalytic lifetime and the nature of the step-growth polymerization.
