Abstract
Synthetic methods that enable the macrocyclisation of peptides facilitate the development of effective therapeutic and diagnostic tools. Herein we report a peptide cyclisation strategy based on intramolecular interception of visible-light-mediated cysteine desulfurisation. This method allows cyclisation of unprotected peptides in an aqueous solution via the installation of a hydrocarbon linkage. We explore the limits of this chemistry using a range of model peptides of increasing length and complexity, including peptides of biological/therapeutic relevance. The method is applied to replace the native disulfide of the peptide hormone, oxytocin, with a proteolytically/redox-stable hydrocarbon, and internal macrocyclisation of an MCL-1-binding peptide.

Abstract
The synthesis of constrained 12-membered rings is notably difficult. The main challenges result from constraints during the linear peptide cyclization. Attempts to overcome constraints through excessive activation frequently cause peptidyl epimerization, while insufficient activation of the C-terminus hampers cyclization and promotes intermolecular oligomer formation. We present a β-thiolactone framework that enables the synthesis of cyclo-tetrapeptides via direct aminolysis. This tactic utilizes a mechanism that restricts C-terminal carbonyl rotation while maintaining high reactivity, thereby enabling efficient head-to-tail amidation, reducing oligomerization, and preventing epimerization. A broad range of challenging cyclo-tetrapeptides ( > 20 examples) are synthesized in buffer and exhibits excellent tolerance toward nearly all proteinogenic amino acids. Previously unattainable macrocycles, such as cyclo-L-(Pro-Tyr-Pro-Val), have been produced and identified as μ-opioid receptor (MOR) agonists, with an EC50 value of 2.5 nM. Non-epimerizable direct aminolysis offers a practical solution for constrained peptide cyclization, and the discovery of MOR agonist activity highlights the importance of overcoming synthetic challenges for therapeutic development.

Abstract
The formation of nitrogen-containing organic interstellar molecules is of great importance to reveal chemical processes and the origin of life on Earth. Benzonitrile (BN) is one of the simplest nitrogen-containing aromatic molecules in the interstellar medium (ISM) that has been detected in recent years. Methanol (CH3OH) exists widely in interstellar space with high reactivity. Herein, we measured the infrared (IR) spectra of neutral and cationic BN-CH3OH clusters by vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization combined with time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Combining IR spectra with the density functional theory calculations, we reveal that the BN-CH3OH intends to form a cyclic H-bonded structure in neutral clusters. However, after the ionization of BN-CH3OH clusters, proton-shared N···H···O and N···H···C structures are confirmed to form between BN and CH3OH, with the minor coexistence of H-bond and O-π structures. The formation of the proton-shared structure expands our knowledge of the evolution of the life-related nitrogen-containing molecules in the universe and provides a possible pathway to the further study of biorelevant aromatic organic macromolecules.

Abstract
Peptide modification by C(sp3)-H functionalization of residues at the internal positions remains underdeveloped due to the inhibitory effect of backbone amides. In this study, using histidine (His) as an endogenous directing group, we developed a novel method for the β-C(sp3)-H functionalization of alanine (Ala) at diverse positions of peptides. Through this approach, a wide range of linear peptides were modified on the side-chain of Ala adjacent to His to afford the functionalized peptides in moderate to good yield and excellent position selectivity. Furthermore, conjugation of peptides with functional molecules such as glucuronide, oleanolic acid, dipeptide, and fluorophore derivatives was achieved.

Abstract
Cyclic peptides with cyclophane linkers are an attractive compound type owing to the fine-tuned rigid three-dimensional structures and unusual biophysical features. Cytochrome P450 enzymes are capable of catalyzing not only the C-C and C-O oxidative coupling reactions found in vancomycin and other nonribosomal peptides (NRPs), but they also exhibit novel catalytic activities to generate cyclic ribosomally synthesized and post-translationally modified peptides (RiPPs) through cyclophane linkage. To discover more P450-modified multicyclic RiPPs, we set out to find cryptic and unknown P450-modified RiPP biosynthetic gene clusters (BGCs) through genome mining. Synergized bioinformatic analysis reveals that P450-modified RiPP BGCs are broadly distributed in bacteria and can be classified into 11 classes. Focusing on two classes of P450-modified RiPP BGCs where precursor peptides contain multiple conserved aromatic amino acid residues, we characterized 11 novel P450-modified multicyclic RiPPs with different cyclophane linkers through heterologous expression. Further mutation of the key ring-forming residues and combinatorial biosynthesis study revealed the order of bond formation and the specificity of P450s. This study reveals the functional diversity of P450 enzymes involved in the cyclophane-containing RiPPs and indicates that P450 enzymes are promising tools for rapidly obtaining structurally diverse cyclic peptide derivatives.

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
The development of a reliable method for asymmetric synthesis of unnatural peptides is highly desirable and particularly challenging. In this study, we present a versatile and efficient approach that uses cobalt-catalyzed diastereoselective umpolung hydrogenation to access noncanonical aryl alanine peptides. This protocol demonstrates good tolerance toward various functional groups, amino acid sequences, and peptide lengths. Moreover, the versatility of this reaction is illustrated by its successful application in the late-stage functionalization and formal synthesis of various representative chiral natural products and pharmaceutical scaffolds. This strategy eliminates the need for synthesizing chiral noncanonical aryl alanines before peptide formation, and the hydrogenation reaction does not result in racemization or epimerization. The underlying mechanism was extensively explored through deuterium labeling, control experiments, HRMS identification, and UV-Vis spectroscopy, which supported a reasonable CoI/CoIII catalytic cycle. Notably, acetic acid and methanol serve as safe and cost-effective hydrogen sources, while indium powder acts as the terminal electron source.

Abstract
Planar-chiral cyclophanes have received increasing attention for drug discovery and catalyst design. However, the catalytically asymmetric synthesis of planar-chiral cyclophanes has been a longstanding challenge. We describe the first Pd(II)-catalyzed enantioselective C-H olefination of prochiral cyclophanes. The low rotational barrier of less hindered benzene ring in the substrates allows the reaction to proceed through a dynamic kinetic resolution. This approach exhibits broad substrate scope, providing the planar-chiral cyclophanes in high yields (up to 99 %) with excellent enantioselectivities (up to >99 % ee). The ansa chain length scope studies reveal that the chirality of the cyclophanes arises from the bond rotation constraint of the benzene ring around the macrocycle plane, rather than the C-N axis. The C-H activation approach is also applicable to the late-stage modification of bioactive molecules and pharmaceuticals.

Abstract
The introduction of a chlorine atom could potentially endow peptide derivatives with notable bioactivity and applicability. However, despite considerable recent progress in C(sp3)-H functionalization chemistry, a general method for the site-selective chlorination of inert aliphatic C-H bonds in peptides still remains elusive. Herein, we report a site-selective C(sp3)-H chlorination of oligopeptides based on an N-chloropeptide strategy. N-chloropeptides, which are easily prepared from the corresponding native oligopeptides, are smoothly degraded in the presence of an appropriate copper catalyst, and a subsequent 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer affords γ- or δ-chlorinated peptides in excellent yield. A wide variety of amino acid residues can thus be site-selectively chlorinated in a predictable manner. This method hence enables the efficient synthesis of otherwise less accessible, chlorine-containing peptide fragments of natural peptides. We moreover demonstrate here the successful estimation of the stereochemistry of the chlorinated carbon atom in aquimarin A. Furthermore, we reveal that side-chain-chlorinated peptides can serve as highly useful substructures with a fine balance between stability and reactivity, which renders them promising targets for synthetic and medicinal applications.

Abstract
The synthesis of cyclized organic compounds with more than ten atoms (macrocycles) is traditionally based on reversible reactions under highly diluted conditions, typically <0.05 M, in order to circumvent the formation of intermolecular products. These reaction conditions severely hamper industrial productivity and the use of solid catalysts. Herein, it is shown that the intramolecular Mizoroki-Heck reaction of ω-iodide cinnamates proceeds at 1 M concentration when catalyzed by few-atom Pd clusters, either in solution or supported on a solid, to give different macrocycles in good yields. This paradigmatic increase in reaction concentration not only opens the door for macrocycle production with high throughputs but also enables the use of solid catalysts for a macrocyclization reaction in flow.

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
The three-dimensional structure of medium-sized cyclic peptides accounts for their biological activity and other important physiochemical properties. Despite significant advances in the past few decades, chemists' ability to fine-tune the structure, in particular, the backbone conformation, of short peptides made of canonical amino acids is still quite limited. Nature has shown that cross-linking the aromatic side chains of linear peptide precursors via enzyme catalysis can generate cyclophane-braced products with unusual structures and diverse activities. However, the biosynthetic path to these natural products is challenging to replicate in the synthetic laboratory using practical chemical modifications of peptides. Herein, we report a broadly applicable strategy to remodel the structure of homodetic peptides by cross-linking the aromatic side chains of Trp, His, and Tyr residues with various aryl linkers. The aryl linkers can be easily installed via copper-catalyzed double heteroatom-arylation reactions of peptides with aryl diiodides. These aromatic side chains and aryl linkers can be combined to form a large variety of assemblies of heteroatom-linked multi-aryl units. The assemblies can serve as tension-bearable multijoint braces to modulate the backbone conformation of peptides as an entry to previously inaccessible conformational space.

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.

Abstract
Bioorthogonal late-stage diversification of structurally complex peptides bears enormous potential for drug discovery and molecular imaging, among other applications. Herein, we report on a palladium-catalyzed C-H arylation of tryptophan-containing peptides with readily accessible and modular arylthianthrenium salts. Under exceedingly mild reaction conditions, the late-stage diversification of structurally complex peptides was accomplished. The tunability and ease of preparation of arylthianthrenium salts allowed the expedient stitching of tryptophan-containing peptides with drug, natural product, and peptidic scaffolds by forging sterically congested biaryl linkages. The robustness of the palladium catalysis regime was reflected by the full tolerance of a plethora of sensitive and coordinating functional groups. Hence, our manifold enabled efficient access to highly decorated, labelled, conjugated, and ligated linear and cyclic peptides.

Abstract
The development of environment-friendly, step economic couplings to generate structurally diverse macrocyclic compounds is highly desirable but poses a marked challenge. Inspired by the C-H oxidation mechanism of cytochromes P450, an unprecedented and practical RhIII -catalyzed acylmethylation macrocyclization via C-H/O2 dual activation has been developed by us. The process of macrocyclization is facilitated by a synergic coordination from pyridine and ester group. Interestingly, the reaction mode derives from a three-component coupling which differs from established olefination and alkylation paths. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations and control experiments revealed the mechanism of this unique C-H/O2 dual activation. The newly achieved acylmethylation macrocyclic products and their derivatives showed a potent anti-H1N1 bioactivity, which may provide an opportunity for the discovery of novel anti-H1N1 macrocyclic leading compounds.

Abstract
Hierarchical materials that exhibit order over multiple length scales are ubiquitous in nature. Because hierarchy gives rise to unique properties and functions, many have sought inspiration from nature when designing and fabricating hierarchical matter. More and more, however, nature's own high-information content building blocks, proteins, peptides, and peptidomimetics, are being coopted to build hierarchy because the information that determines structure, function, and interfacial interactions can be readily encoded in these versatile macromolecules. Here, we take stock of recent progress in the rational design and characterization of hierarchical materials produced from high-information content blocks with a focus on stimuli-responsive and "smart" architectures. We also review advances in the use of computational simulations and data-driven predictions to shed light on how the side chain chemistry and conformational flexibility of macromolecular blocks drive the emergence of order and the acquisition of hierarchy and also on how ionic, solvent, and surface effects influence the outcomes of assembly. Continued progress in the above areas will ultimately usher in an era where an understanding of designed interactions, surface effects, and solution conditions can be harnessed to achieve predictive materials synthesis across scale and drive emergent phenomena in the self-assembly and reconfiguration of high-information content building blocks.

Abstract
The applications of peptides and peptidomimetics have been demonstrated in the fields of therapeutics, diagnostics, and chemical biology. Strategies for the direct late-stage modification of peptides and peptidomimetics are highly desirable in modern drug discovery. Transition-metal-catalyzed C-H functionalization is emerging as a powerful strategy for late-stage peptide modification that is able to construct functional groups or increase skeletal diversity. However, the installation of directing groups is necessary to control the site selectivity. In this work, we describe a transition metal-free strategy for late-stage peptide modification. In this strategy, a linear aliphatic side chain at the peptide N-terminus is cyclized to deliver a proline skeleton via site-selective δ-C(sp3)-H functionalization under visible light. Natural and unnatural amino acids are demonstrated as suitable substrates with the transformations proceeding with excellent regio- and stereo-selectivity.

To demonstrate the practicality of this methodology, the functionalized prolines were used as intermediates for the synthesis of several natural products: lucentamycin A, oxotomaymycin, oxoprothracarcin, and barmumycin.

Abstract
Peptide modification by C(sp3)-H functionalization of internal residues remains a major challenge due to the inhibitory effect of peptide bonds. In this work, we developed a methionine-directed β-C(sp3)-H arylation method for internal alanine functionalization. By tuning the σC-C bond rotation of internal Ala through head-to-tail cyclization, we overcame the inhibitory effect and functionalized a wide range of head-to-tail cyclic peptides with aryl iodides with excellent position selectivity.

Abstract
A palladium(II)-catalyzed protocol for inactive β-C(sp3)-H bond functionalization has been first accomplished. The reaction proceeds through five-membered carbocycles for the formation of C-C bonds via the Pd(II)/Pd(IV) cycle. This reaction was carried out with various aryl iodides and benzothiazoles/benzoxazoles/benzimidazoles, which were well-tolerated in this reaction and successfully generated β-C(sp3)-H arylated products. Further implementation of this batch protocol to continuous flow by utilizing a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) capillary reactor enhanced the reaction efficiency and decreased the reaction time (18.4 min) as compared to batch conditions (8 h). Even on the gram scale, the process produced excellent yield with negligible diarylations. Functional group tolerance, a continuous-flow approach, and easy-to-handle reaction conditions make this inactive β-C(sp3)-H bond functionalization protocol very attractive.

Abstract
A concise and practical strategy towards a novel class of 14-membered macrocycles containing an enediyne (Z-3-ene-1,5-diyne) structural unit is described. A highly modular assembly of various precursors via sequential Ugi/Sonogashira reactions allowed the preparation of hybrid enediyne-peptide macrocycles in most cases as single diastereoisomers. Selected macrocyclic compounds showed moderate antiproliferative activity, and can be considered as templates suitable for further diversification in terms of ring size, shape, and stereochemistry.

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
4-Aminobenzotriazole (ABTA) was applied as an effective removable directing group (DG) in Pd-catalyzed C-H activation for the first time. Compared with the widely applied pyridine and quinoline analogs, ABTA showed significantly improved reactivity, achieving aerobic oxidative C-H olefination in excellent yields (up to 95% vs <50% with other reported DGs under identical conditions). Using this new strategy, macrocyclization was achieved to give cyclic peptides in good yields with easy ABTA removal under mild conditions, highlighting the promising potential of this new DG.

Abstract
We highlight the reported developments of the palladium-catalyzed C-H activation and functionalization of the inactive/unreactive prochiral C(sp3)-H bonds of aliphatic and alicyclic compounds. There exist numerous classical methods for generating contiguous stereogenic centers in a compound with a high degree of stereocontrol. Along similar lines, the Pd(II)-catalyzed, directing group-aided functionalization of inactive prochiral/diastereotopic C(sp3)-H bonds have been exploited to accomplish the stereoselective construction of stereo-arrays in organic compounds. We present a concise discussion on how specific strategies consisting of Pd(II)-catalyzed, directing group-aided C(sp3)-H functionalization have been utilized to generate two or more stereogenic centers in aliphatic and alicyclic compounds.

Abstract
In contrast to the major families of small molecules and antibodies, cyclic peptides, as a family of synthesizable macromolecules, have distinct biochemical and therapeutic properties for pharmaceutical applications. Cyclic peptide-based drugs have increasingly been developed in the past two decades, confirming the common perception that cyclic peptides have high binding affinities and low metabolic toxicity as antibodies, good stability and ease of manufacture as small molecules. Natural peptides were the major source of cyclic peptide drugs in the last century, and cyclic peptides derived from novel screening and cyclization strategies are the new source. In this review, we will discuss and summarize 18 cyclic peptides approved for clinical use in the past two decades to provide a better understanding of cyclic peptide development and to inspire new perspectives. The purpose of the present review is to promote efforts to resolve the challenges in the development of cyclic peptide drugs that are more effective.

The use of electricity bypassed the need for stoichiometric chemical oxidants. The sustainable electrocatalysis strategy was characterized by ample scope, and its unique robustness enabled the late-stage C–H diversification of tyrosine-derived peptides. Ruthenaelectro(ii/iv)-catalyzed intermolecular C–H acyloxylations of oligopeptides have been developed by the guidance of key experimental, CV and computational insights.![]()

Abstract
Transition-metal-catalyzed, coordination-assisted C(sp3)-H functionalization has revolutionized synthetic planning over the past few decades as the use of these directing groups has allowed for increased access to many strategic positions in organic molecules. Nonetheless, several challenges remain preeminent, such as the requirement for high temperatures, the difficulty in removing or converting directing groups, and, although many metals provide some reactivity, the difficulty in employing metals outside of palladium. This review aims to give a comprehensive overview of coordination-assisted, transition-metal-catalyzed, direct functionalization of nonactivated C(sp3)-H bonds by covering the literature since 2004 in order to demonstrate the current state-of-the-art methods as well as the current limitations. For clarity, this review has been divided into nine sections by the transition metal catalyst with subdivisions by the type of bond formation. Synthetic applications and reaction mechanism are discussed where appropriate.

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
We introduce a new and highly efficient synthetic protocol towards multifunctional fluorescent cyclopeptides by solid-phase peptide macrocyclization via dipyrrin construction, with full scope of proteinogenic amino acids and different ring sizes. Various bicyclic peptides can be created by dipyrrin-based crosslinking and double dipyrrin-ring formation. The embedded dipyrrin can be either transformed to fluorescent BODIPY and then utilized as cancer-selective targeted protein imaging probe in vitro, or directly employed as a selective metal sensor in aqueous media. This work provides a valuable addition to the peptide macrocyclization toolbox, and a blueprint for the development of multifunctional dipyrrin linkers in cyclopeptides for a wide range of potential bioapplications.

Abstract
C-vinyl glycosides are an important class of carbohydrates and pose a unique synthetic challenge. A new strategy has been developed for stereoselective synthesis of C-vinyl glycosides via Pd-catalyzed directed C-H glycosylation of alkenes with glycosyl chloride donors using an easily removable bidentate auxiliary. Both the γ C-H bond of allylamines and the δ C-H bond of homoallyl amine substrates can be glycosylated in high efficiency and with excellent regio- and stereoselectivity. The resulting C-vinyl glycosides can be further converted to a variety of C-alkyl glycosides with high stereospecificity. These reactions offer a broadly applicable method to streamline the synthesis of complex C-vinyl glycosides from easily accessible starting materials.

Abstract
The late-stage C–H functionalization of bioactive structural motifs is a powerful synthetic strategy for accessing advanced agrochemicals, bioimaging materials, and drug candidates, among other complex molecules. While traditional late-stage diversification relies on the use of precious transition metals, the utilization of 3d transition metals is an emerging approach in organic synthesis. Among the 3d metals, manganese catalysts have gained increasing attention for late-stage diversification due to the sustainability, cost-effectiveness, ease of operation, and reduced toxicity. Herein, we summarize recent manganese-catalyzed late-stage C–H functionalization reactions of biologically active small molecules and complex peptides.
