Abstract
The intramolecular hydroaminocarbonylation of alkenes is a compelling tool to rapidly access lactam, a privileged motif ubiquitous in natural products, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. However, selective carbonylation to bridged polycyclic lactams with a lactam nitrogen at a bridgehead position is less explored. We herein report a modular palladium-catalyzed approach to perform a tandem hydrocarbonylative lactamization/Diels-Alder cycloaddition reaction with 2-vinyl aryl aldimines, alkenes, and CO, which offers convenient access to furnish the bridged polycyclic lactams in high yields with high selectivities.

Abstract
In this contribution, we provide a comprehensive overview of acyclic twisted amides, covering the literature since 1993 (the year of the first recognized report on acyclic twisted amides) through June 2020. The review focuses on classes of acyclic twisted amides and their key structural properties, such as amide bond twist and nitrogen pyramidalization, which are primarily responsible for disrupting nN to π*C═O conjugation. Through discussing acyclic twisted amides in comparison with the classic bridged lactams and conformationally restricted cyclic fused amides, the reader is provided with an overview of amidic distortion that results in novel conformational features of acyclic amides that can be exploited in various fields of chemistry ranging from organic synthesis and polymers to biochemistry and structural chemistry and the current position of acyclic twisted amides in modern chemistry.

Abstract
The unusual reactivity of twisted amides has long been associated with the degree of amide distortion, though classical bridged bicyclic amides offer limited methods to further modify these parameters. Here, we report that the geometry and reactivity of a single twisted amide scaffold can be significantly modulated through remote substituent effects. Guided by calculated ground state geometries, a library of twisted amide derivatives was efficiently prepared through a divergent synthetic strategy. Kinetic and mechanistic investigations of these amides in the alkylation/halide-rebound ring-opening reaction with alkyl halides show a strong positive correlation between the electron donating ability of the substituent and distortion of the amide bond, leading to rates of nucleophilic substitution spanning nearly 2 orders of magnitude. The rate limiting step of the cascade sequence is found to be dependent on the nature of the substituent, and additional studies highlight the role of solvent polarity and halide ion on reaction pathway and efficiency.

Abstract
Safe administration of highly cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs is a challenging problem in cancer treatment due to the adverse side effects and collateral damage to non-tumorigenic cells. To mitigate these problems, promising new approaches, based on the paradigm of controlled targeted drug delivery (TDD), and utilizing drug nanocarriers with biorecognition ability to selectively target neoplastic cells, are being considered in cancer therapy. Herein, we report on the design and testing of a nanoparticle-grid based biosensing platform to aid in the development of new targeted drug nanocarriers. The proposed sensor grid consists of superparamagnetic gold-coated core-shell Fe2Ni@Au nanoparticles, further functionalized with folic acid targeting ligand, model thiolated chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DOX), and a biocompatibility agent, 3,6-dioxa-octanethiol (DOOT). The employed dual transduction method based on electrochemical and enhanced Raman scattering detection has enabled efficient monitoring of the drug loading onto the nanocarriers, attaching to the sensor surface, as well as the drug release under simulated intracellular conditions. The grid's nanoparticles serve here as the model nanocarriers for new TDD systems under design and optimization. The superparamagnetic properties of the Fe2Ni@Au NPs aid in nanoparticles' handling and constructing a dense sensor grid with high plasmonic enhancement of the Raman signals due to the minimal interparticle distance.

Abstract
Electrostatic drag in the intramolecular Schmidt reactions of azidopropylcyclohexanones is characterized using density functional theory (DFT) calculations and direct dynamics simulations. Despite resulting from enthalpically favorable interactions, electrostatic drag slows down N2 loss during formation of bridged lactam products, an effect with implications for controlling product selectivity.

Abstract
A catalyst system of mononuclear manganese precursor 3 combined with potassium alkoxide served as a superior catalyst compared with our previously reported manganese homodinuclear catalyst 2 a for esterification of not only tertiary aryl amides, but also tertiary aliphatic amides. On the basis of stoichiometric reactions of 3 and potassium alkoxide salt, kinetic studies, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we clarified a plausible reaction mechanism in which in situ generated manganese-potassium heterodinuclear species cooperatively activates the carbonyl moiety of the amide and the OH moiety of the alcohols. We also revealed details of the reaction mechanism of our previous manganese homodinuclear system 2 a, and we found that the activation free energy (ΔG≠ ) for the manganese-potassium heterodinuclear complex catalyzed esterification of amides is lower than that for the manganese homodinuclear system, which was consistent with the experimental results. We further applied our catalyst system to deprotect the acetyl moiety of primary and secondary amines.

Abstract
The living ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of an unsaturated twisted amide using the third-generation Grubbs initiator is described. Unlike prior examples of ROMP monomers that rely on angular or steric strain for propagation, this system is driven by resonance destabilization of the amide that arises from geometric constraints of the bicyclic framework. Upon ring-opening, the amide can rotate and rehybridize to give a stabilized and planar conjugated system that promotes living propagation. The absence of other strain elements in the twisted amide is supported by the inability of a carbon analogue of the monomer to polymerize and computational studies that find resonance destabilization accounts for 11.3 kcal mol-1 of the overall 12.0 kcal mol-1 ring strain. The twisted amide polymerization is capable of preparing high molecular weight polymers rapidly at room temperature, and post-polymerization modification combined with 2D NMR spectroscopy confirms a regioirregular polymer microstructure.

Abstract
Amide C-N bonds are thermodynamically stable and their fission, such as by hydrolysis and alcoholysis, is considered a long-challenging organic reaction. In general, stoichiometric chemical transformations of amides into the corresponding esters and acids require harsh conditions, such as strong acids/bases at a high reaction temperature. Accordingly, the development of catalytic reactions that cleave not only primary and secondary amides, but also tertiary amides in mild conditions, is in high demand. Herein, we surveyed typical stoichiometric transformations of amides, and highlight our recent achievements in the catalytic esterification of amides using scandium, manganese, and zinc catalysts, together with some recent catalyst systems using late-transition metal reported by other groups.

Abstract
![]()
A strategy
for DNA-compatible, palladium-catalyzed hydroxycarbonylation
of (hetero)aryl halides on DNA–chemical conjugates has been
developed. This method generally provided the corresponding carboxylic
acids in moderate to very good conversions for (hetero)aryl iodides
and bromides, and in poor to moderate conversions for (hetero)aryl
chlorides. These conditions were further validated by application
within a DNA-encoded chemical library synthesis and subsequent discovery
of enriched features from the library in selection experiments against
two protein targets.

Abstract
Advanced and metastatic cancer forms are extremely difficult to treat and require high doses of chemotherapeutics, inadvertently affecting also healthy cells. As a result, the observed survival rates are very low. For instance, gemcitabine (GEM), one of the most effective chemotherapeutic drugs used for the treatment of breast and pancreatic cancers, sees only a 20% efficacy in penetrating cancer tissue, resulting in <5% survival rate in pancreatic cancer. Here, we present a method for delivering the drug that offers mitigation of side effects, as well as a targeted delivery and controlled release of the drug, improving its overall efficacy. By modifying the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with covalently bonded thiol linkers, we have immobilized GEM on the nanoparticle (NP) through a pH-sensitive amide bond. This bond prevents the drug from being metabolized or acting on tissue at physiological pH 7.4, but breaks, releasing the drug at acidic pH, characteristic of cancer cells. Further functionalization of the NP with folic acid and/or transferrin (TF) offers a targeted delivery, as cancer cells overexpress folate and TF receptors, which can mediate the endocytosis of the NP carrying the drug. Thus, through the modification of AuNPs, we have been able to produce a nanocarrier containing GEM and folate/TF ligands, which is capable of targeted controlled-release delivery of the drug, reducing the side effects of the drug and increasing its efficacy. Here, we demonstrate the pH-dependent GEM release, using an ultrasensitive surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy to monitor the GEM loading onto the nanocarrier and follow its stimulated release. Further in vitro studies with model triple-negative breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 have corroborated the utility of the proposed nanocarrier method allowing the administration of high drug doses to targeted cancer cells.

Abstract
A rare example of highly selective σ N-C bond difunctionalization in bridged twisted lactams through N-C cleavage has been achieved. In combination with the intramolecular Heck cyclization, this method affords a two-step bond reorganization event ("sew-and-cut") to access functionalized isoquinoline ring systems directly with high atom economy. C-H bond functionalizations directed by a weakly coordinating bridged amide bond increase scaffold diversity. Preliminary mechanistic studies on the effect of amide distortion and the role of electrophile in this unusual σ N-C amide difunctionalization are described.

Abstract
There is an ever-increasing interest in synthetic methods that not only enable peptide macrocyclization, but also facilitate downstream application of the synthesized molecules. We have found that aziridine amides are stereoelectronically attenuated in a macrocyclic environment such that non-specific interactions with biological nucleophiles are reduced or even shut down. The electrophilic reactivity, revealed at high pH, enables peptide sequencing by mass spectrometry, which will further broaden the utility of aziridine amide-containing libraries of macrocycles.

Abstract
N-Protonation of amides is critical in numerous biological processes, including amide bonds proteolysis and protein folding as well as in organic synthesis as a method to activate amide bonds towards unconventional reactivity. A computational model enabling prediction of protonation at the amide bond nitrogen atom along the C-N rotational pathway is reported. Notably, this study provides a blueprint for the rational design and application of amides with a controlled degree of rotation in synthetic chemistry and biology.

Abstract
Selective generation of an amine-terminated self-assembled monolayer bound to silicon wafers via a silicon-carbon linkage was realized by photocatalytically reducing the corresponding azide-terminated, self-assembled monolayers (Az-SAMs). The Az-SAM was obtained by thermal deposition of 11-chloroundecene onto a hydrogen-terminated silicon wafer followed by nucleophilic substitution of the chloride with the azide ion in warm N,N'-dimethylformamide (DMF). The presence of the terminal azide group on the SAM was confirmed by reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy (RAIRS), by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and by detecting the formation of a triazole upon reaction of the azide with an activated alkyne. The desired terminal amine groups were generated by photocatalytic reduction of the Az-SAM with cadmium selenide quantum dots (CdSe Qdots) using λ > 400 nm. Analysis of the reduced SAM by XPS gave results that were consistent with those obtained with an amine-terminated surface obtained by reducing the Az-SAM with triphenylphosphine. To demonstrate the feasibility of using the Az-SAM for surface patterning, a sample was coated with adsorbed CdSe Qdots and exposed to the output of a diode laser at λ = 407 nm through a micropatterned mask. Using a SEM, the pattern formed in this manner was revealed after removing the CdSe Qdots and subsequently adsorbing 10 nm gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) to the positively charged terminal-amine groups. The formation of the pattern by CdSe-photocatalyzed reduction of the azide demonstrates a novel route to create features by selective modification of organic monolayers on silicon wafers.

Abstract
The acid-catalyzed reactions of twisted amides in water solution were investigated by using cluster-continuum model calculations. In contrast to the previous widely suggested concerted hydration of the C=O group, our calculations show that the reaction proceeds in a practically stepwise manner, and that the hydration and hydrolysis channels of the C-N bond compete. The Eigen ion (H(3)O(+)) is the key species involved in the reaction, and it modulates the hydration and hydrolysis reaction pathways. The phenyl substitution in the twisted amide not only activates the N-CO bond, but also stabilizes the hydrolysis product through n(N)→π(phenyl) delocalization, leading exclusively to the hydrolysis product of the ring-opened carboxylic acid. Generally, the twisted amides are more active than the planar amides, and such a rate acceleration results mainly from the increase in exothermicity in the first N-protonation step; the second step of the nucleophilic attack is less affected by the twisting of the amide bond. The present results show good agreement with the available experimental observations.

Abstract
Medium-bridged twisted lactams, in which a non-planar amide bond is achieved by incorporating the nitrogen atom at the bridgehead position in a medium-sized heterocycle, offer an attractive setting in which to study the properties of distorted amide linkages. This Emerging Area article will describe progress in the preparation and study of these compounds. This work shows that compounds containing an even moderately distorted amide bond display useful and unusual chemical properties while retaining a measure of stability that enables their study.

Abstract
The straightforward protonation of lactams by treatment with acid and the full structural characterization of three resulting N-protonated lactams are disclosed. This work provides experimental evidence that N-protonation of amide bonds results in a dramatic increase in nonplanarity about the C-N amide bond. The resulting compounds are discussed in structural, spectroscopic, and reactivity terms. The data suggest that distortion of these amide bonds by approximately 50 degrees is sufficient for their effective N-activation.

Abstract
Medium-bridged twisted amides can be synthesized by the intramolecular Schmidt reaction of 2-azidoalkyl ketones. In these reactions, the regiochemistry of the Schmidt reaction is diverted into a typically disfavored pathway by the presence of an aromatic group at the alpha-position adjacent to the ketone, which stabilizes the predominantly reactive conformation of the azidohydrin intermediate by engaging in a nonbonded cation-pi interaction with the positively charged diazonium cation. This results in the rarely observed rearrangement of the C-C bond distal to the azidoalkyl chain. This reaction pathway also requires the azide-containing tether to be situated in the axial orientation in the key azidohydrin intermediate. Examination of the effect of substitution of aromatic rings on the regiochemistry of the Schmidt reaction shows an increase in the migratory selectivity with more electron-rich aromatic groups. The selectivity is lower when an electron-withdrawing substituent is placed on the aromatic ring. The ability of cation-pi interactions to act as a controlling element decreases when Lewis acids coordinate to substituents on the aromatic ring. The developed version of the Schmidt reaction provides a direct access to a family of medium-bridged twisted amides with a [4.3.1] bicyclic system, compounds which are very difficult to access with use of other currently available methods.

Abstract
The reactions of a series of strained bicyclic and tricyclic one-carbon bridged lactams with organometallic reagents have been investigated. These amides permit isolation of a number of remarkably stable hemiaminals upon nucleophilic addition to the twisted amide bonds present in the lactam precursors. The factors that affect the stability of the resulting bridged hemiaminals are presented. In some cases, the hemiaminals were found to collapse to the open-form amino ketones in a manner expected for traditional carboxylic acid derivatives. Transannular N...C=O interactions were also observed in some nine-membered amino ketones. Additionally, tricyclic bridged lactams were found to react with some nucleophiles that typically react with ketones but not with planar amides. The effect of geometry on the reactivity of amide bonds and the amide bond distortion range that marks the boundary of amide-like and ketone-like carbonyl reactivity of lactams are also discussed.

Abstract
The regiochemistry of the intramolecular Schmidt reaction of 2-azidoalkylketones is controlled by placing a thioether substituent at the position adjacent to the ketone to provide access to a family of unsubstituted medium bridged twisted amides. This outcome is ascribed to the presence of stabilizing through-space interactions between the diazonium cation and the n electrons on heteroatom and does not require a locked conformation of the ketone.
