Abstract
Nucleosides represent one of the key building blocks of biochemistry. There is significant interest in the synthesis of nucleoside-derived materials for applications as probes, biochemical models, and pharmaceuticals. Palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions are effective methods for making covalent modification of carbon and nitrogen sites on nucleobases under mild conditions. Water-soluble catalysts derived from palladium and hydrophilic ligands, such as tris(3-sulfonatophenyl)phosphine trisodium (TPPTS), are efficient catalysts for a range of coupling reactions of unprotected halonucleosides. Over the past two decades, these methods have been extended to direct functionalization of halonucleotides, as well as RNA and DNA oligonucleotides (ONs) containing halogenated bases. These methods can be run under biocompatible conditions, including examples of Suzuki coupling of modified DNA in whole cells and tissue samples. In this account, development of this methodology by our group and others is highlighted along with the extension of these catalyst systems to modification of nucleotides and ONs.

Abstract
Modified bright fluorescent nucleosides that respond to the microenvironment have great potential as probes. A series of novel 8-(phenylethynyl)phenylated 2-amino-2'-deoxyadenosine and 2'-deoxyisoguanosine derivatives have been synthesized by Sonogashira-type coupling reaction and Suzuki reaction. The maximum emission of the new compounds is in the visible region, with strong solvatochromicity and pH-dependent fluorescent properties. Furthermore, some of them exhibit bright fluorescence emissions in various solvents (ε × Φ = 4000-39,000 cm-1 M-1). These consequences indicate that purine analogues could respond to the microenvironment and serve as promising fluorescent probes.Supplemental data for this article is available online at https://doi.org/10.1080/15257770.2021.2004418 .

Abstract
In this work, we report on the Photoinduced Electron Transfer (PET) reaction between a donor (adenine analogue) and an acceptor (3-methoxychromone dye, 3MC) in the context of designing efficient fluorescent probes as DNA sensors. Firstly, Gibbs energy was investigated in disconnected donor-acceptor systems by Rehm-Weller equation. The oxidation potential of the adenine derivative was responsible for exergonicity of the PET reaction in separated combinations. Then, the PET reaction in donor-π-acceptor conjugates was investigated using steady-state fluorescence spectroscopy, acid-mediated PET inhibition and transient absorption techniques. In conjugated systems, PET is a favorable pathway of fluorescent quenching when an electron-rich adenine analogue (d7A) was connected to the fluorophore (3MC). We found that formation of ground-state complexes even at nm concentration range dominated the dye photophysics and generated poorly emissive species likely through intermolecular PET from d7A to 3MC. On the other hand, solution acidification disrupts complexation and turns on the dye emission. Bridging an electron-poor adenine analogue with high oxidation potential (8 d7A) to 3MC presenting low reduction potential is another alternative to prevent complex formation and produce highly emissive monomer conjugates.

Abstract
Tropolone (2-hydroxycyclohepta-2,4,6-triene-1-one and tautomer) is a non-benzenoid bioactive natural chromophore with pH-dependent fluorescence character and extraordinary metal binding affinities, especially with transition-metal ions Cu2+ /Zn2+ /Ni2+ . This report describes the syntheses and biophysical studies of a new tropolonyl thymidine [(4(5)-hydroxy-5(4)-oxo-5(4)H-cyclohepta-1,3,6-trienyl)thymidine] (tr-T) nucleoside and of corresponding tropolone-conjugated DNA oligonucleotides that form B-form DNA duplex structures with a complementary DNA strand, although their duplex structures are less stable than that of the control. Furthermore, the stabilities of those DNA duplex structures are lowered by the presence of increasing numbers of tr-T residue or by decreasing pH of their environments. Most importantly, these duplex structures are made fluorescent because of the presence of the tropolone moieties conjugated to the thymidine residues. The fluorescence behavior of those duplex structures exhibits pH dependence, with stronger fluorescence at lower pH and weaker fluorescence at high pH. Importantly, the fluorescence characters of tr-DNA oligonucleotides are significantly enhanced by nearly threefold after duplex structure formation with their complementary control DNA oligonucleotide. Further, the fluorescence behavior of these tr-DNA duplex structures is also dependent on the pH conditions. Hence, tropolonyl-conjugated DNA represents a class of new fluorescent analogues that might be be employed for sensing DNA duplex formation and provide opportunities to improve fluorescence properties further.

Abstract
Synthetic derivatives of cyclic adenosine monophosphate, such as halogenated or other more hydrophobic analogs, are widely used compounds, to investigate diverse signal transduction pathways of eukaryotic cells. This inspired us to develop cyclic nucleotides, which exhibit chemical structures composed of brominated 7-deazaadenines and the phosphorylated ribosugar. The synthesized 8-bromo- and 7-bromo-7-deazaadenosine-3',5'-cyclic monophosphates rank among the most potent activators of cyclic nucleotide-regulated ion channels as well as cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Moreover, these substances bind tightly to exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP.

Abstract
The synthesis of novel fluorescent N(9)-alkylated 2-amino-6-triazolylpurine and 7-deazapurine derivatives is described. A new C(2)-regioselectivity in the nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions of 9-alkylated-2,6-diazidopurines and 7-deazapurines with secondary amines has been disclosed. The obtained intermediates, 9-alkylated-2-amino-6-azido-(7-deaza)purines, were transformed into the title compounds by CuAAC reaction. The designed compounds belong to the push-pull systems and possess promising fluorescence properties with quantum yields in the range from 28% to 60% in acetonitrile solution. Due to electron-withdrawing properties of purine and 7-deazapurine heterocycles, which were additionally extended by triazole moieties, the compounds with electron-donating groups showed intramolecular charge transfer character (ICT/TICT) of the excited states which was proved by solvatochromic dynamics and supported by DFT calculations. In the 7-deazapurine series this led to increased fluorescence quantum yield (74%) in THF solution. The compounds exhibit low cytotoxicity and as such are useful for the cell labelling studies in the future.

Abstract
Cyclic ADP-carbocyclic-ribose (cADPcR, 3) is a biologically and chemically stable equivalent of cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR, 1), a Ca(2+)-mobilizing second messenger. We became interested in the biological activity of the 7-deaza analogues of cADPcR, i.e., 7-deaza-cADPcR (7) and its 7-bromo derivative, i.e., 7-deaza-7-Br-cADPcR (8), because 7-deazaadenosine is an efficient bioisostere of adenosine. The synthesis of 7 and 8 required us to construct the key N1-carbocyclic-ribosyl-7-deazaadenosine structure. Therefore, we developed a general method for preparing N1-substituted 7-deazaadenosines by condensing a 2,3-disubstituted pyrrole nucleoside with amines. Using this method, we prepared the N1-carbocyclic ribosyl 7-deazaadenosine derivative 10a, from which we then synthesized the target 7-deaza-cADPcR (7) via an Ag(+)-promoted intramolecular condensation to construct the 18-membered pyrophosphate ring structure. The corresponding 7-bromo derivative 8, which was the first analogue of cADPR with a substitution at the 7-position, was similarly synthesized. Biological evaluation for Ca(2+)-mobilizing activity in the sea urchin egg homogenate system indicated that 7-deaza-cADPcR (7) and 7-deaza-7-Br-cADPcR (8) acted as a full agonist and a partial agonist, respectively.
