Abstract
Currently, non-proteinogenic α-amino acids (α-AAs) have attracted increasing interest in bio- and medicinal chemistry. In this context, the first protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of artificial α-AAs featuring a 3,4-dihydroisoquinolone core with two stereogenic centers was successfully elaborated. A straightforward Rh(III)-catalysed C-H activation/annulation reaction of various aryl hydroxamates with a set of robust and readily available chiral Ni(II) complexes, which have allylic appendages derived from glycine (Gly), alanine (Ala) and phenylalanine (Phe), allowed incorporation of a 3,4-dihydroisoquinolone scaffold into the chiral amino acid residue. The reaction was performed in methanol and under mild conditions (at room temperature under air atmosphere), providing separable diastereomeric complexes with up to 94% total yield. The target α-AA with a 3,4-dihydroisoquinolone core in an enantiopure form was subsequently released from the obtained chiral Ni(II) complexes via an acidic decomposition in aqueous HCl, along with the recovery of the chiral auxiliary ligand.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that regulate many important biological pathways. There is a need for the development of isoform-selective HDAC inhibitors for further biological applications. Here, we report the development of trapoxin A analogues as potent and selective inhibitors of HDAC11, an enzyme that can efficiently remove long-chain fatty acyl groups from proteins. In particular, we show that one of the trapoxin A analogues, TD034, has nanomolar potency in enzymatic assays. We show that in cells, TD034 is active at low micromolar concentrations and inhibits the defatty acylation of SHMT2, a known HDAC11 substrate. The high potency and selectivity of TD034 would permit further development of HDAC11 inhibitors for biological and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
A new oxidatively stable (S)-N-benzylproline-derived ligand ((S)-N-(2-benzoyl-5-tert-butylphenyl)-1-benzylpyrrolidine-2-carboxamide) and its Ni(II)-Schiff base complexes formed of glycine, serine, and dehydroalanine are reported. A bulky tert-butyl substituent in the phenylene fragment precludes unwanted oxidative dimerization of the Schiff base complex, making it suitable for targeted electrochemically induced oxidative modification of the amino acid side chain. Experimental and DFT studies showed that the additional tert-butyl group increases the dispersion interactions in the Ni coordination environment making the complexes more conformationally rigid and provides a higher level of thermodynamically controlled stereoselectivity as compared to the parent Belokon complex. Additionally, functionalization with the tert-butyl group significantly enhances the reactivity of the deprotonated glycine complex towards electrophiles as compared to the anionic species formed from the original Belokon complex. Solubility of the t-Bu-containing ligand and its Schiff base complexes is increased, facilitating scaling-up the reaction procedure and isolation of the functionalized amino acid.

Abstract
A general protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of artificial amino acids (AAs) comprising an isoquinolone skeleton was successfully elaborated via a straightforward Rh(III)-catalyzed C-H activation/annulation of various aryl hydroxamates with a series of robust chiral propargylglycine Ni(II) complexes derived from glycine (Gly), alanine (Ala) and phenylalanine (Phe) in a green solvent (methanol) under mild conditions (at room temperature under air). Notably, in the case of phenylalanine-derived complexes, the formation of unfavorable 4-substituted isoquinolone regioisomers was achieved by a catalyst control for the first time. The subsequent acidic decomposition of the obtained Ni(II) complexes provides the target unnatural α- and α,α-disubstituted AAs with an isoquinolone core in an enantiopure form.

Abstract
A continuous-flow quaternization reaction of gramines with MeI (<1 min) followed by a substitution reaction with a chiral nucleophilic glycine-derived Ni-complex (S)-2 (<1 min) has successfully been developed to afford the corresponding alkylated Ni-complexes 3 in good yields with excellent diastereoselectivity, based on the results of a one-pot quaternization-substitution reaction of gramines with (S)-2 in a batch process. The continuous-flow process allowed the safe and efficient scale-up synthesis of 3j (84% yield, 99% de, 540 g h-1) to give 7-azatryptophan derivative (S)-4j readily by an acid-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction followed by protection with an Fmoc group. The present method for the rapid and efficient syntheses of enantiopure unnatural tryptophan derivatives from various gramines and (S)-2 will be useful to further promote peptide and protein drug discovery and development research.

Abstract
An operationally simple and convenient resolution method via Cu(II) complexes was reported, efficiently providing valuable enantiopure N,C-unprotected α-amino acids. This protocol features synthetically attractive yields and a stereochemical outcome, using a recyclable Schiff base ligand and inexpensive easily accessible metal copper salts. These novel Cu(II) complexes can be obtained in an enantiopure state by means of column chromatography or recrystallization. Furthermore, all the Cu(II) complexes were evaluated for their antibacterial activities. Among them, complexes (S,2S)-3a, (S,2S)-3g, and (S,2S)-3o showed significant antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus Mu50. Further biological evaluation indicated that they were effective against most of Gram-positive bacteria. It is the first study on the biological activities of transition metal complexes with this type of proline-derived Schiff base ligand.

Abstract
A practically useful protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of artificial β-aryl-substituted cysteine derivatives was developed through sequential Pd(II)-catalyzed Heck cross-coupling with aryl iodides and hydrothiolation reaction with various alkyl thiols in the presence of triethylamine taking place in the ligand sphere of a robust and bench-stable chiral dehydroalanine Ni(II) complex. The subsequent acidic decomposition of the single diastereomeric Ni(II) complexes led to the target enantiopure cysteine derivatives.

Abstract
Fluorinated amino acids play an important role in the field of peptide and protein engineering. Although numerous syntheses have been published in recent decades, strategies that allow routine access to fluorinated amino acids on a gram-scale have been poorly described. Furthermore, the described pathways that gain fluorinated amino acids are based on different synthetic strategies, making a uniform approach that uses similar starting materials highly beneficial. Chiral Ni(II) complexes were introduced as powerful tools in the synthesis of noncanonical amino acids. In this work, we present a strategy for the synthesis of a diverse range of fluorinated amino acids based on the corresponding Ni(II) complex from which the products can be obtained in enantiopure form (99% ee) on a gram-scale. In addition, we describe an optimized procedure for the synthesis of alkyl iodide building blocks that are required for the alkylation reactions with the corresponding Ni(II) complex. Finally, we characterized the synthesized fluorinated amino acids with regard to their hydrophobicity and α-helix propensity.

Currently, over 30% of small-molecule drugs contain residues of tailor-made AAs or derived from them amino-alcohols and di-amines. In this review article, we profile 12 AA-derived new pharmaceuticals approved by the FDA in 2020. These newly introduced drugs include Tazverik (epithelioid sarcoma), Gemtesa (overactive bladder), Zeposia (multiple sclerosis), Byfavo (induction and maintenance of procedural sedation), Cu 64 dotatate, and Gallium 68 PSMA-11 (both PET imaging), Rimegepant (acute migraine), Zepzelca (lung cancer), Remdesivir (COVID-19), Amisulpride (nausea and vomiting), Setmelanotide (obesity), and Lonafarnib (progeria syndrome). For each compound, we describe the spectrum of biological activity, medicinal chemistry discovery, and synthetic preparation.

Abstract
Dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of unprotected amino acids (AAs), via intermediate formation of Ni(II) complexes, is currently a leading methodology for preparation of natural and tailor-made AAs in enantiomerically pure form. In this work, we conduct a comparative case study of synthetic performance of four different ligands in DKR of six AAs representing aryl-, benzyl-, alkyl-, and long alkyl-type derivatives. The results of this study allow for rational selection of ligand/AA type to develop a practical procedure for preparation of target enantiomerically pure AAs.

Abstract
Aliphatic artificial α-amino acids (α-AAs) have attracted great interest in biochemistry and pharmacy. In this context, we developed a promising practical protocol for the asymmetric synthesis of these α-AAs through the selective and efficient intermolecular cross-electrophile coupling of Belokon's chiral dehydroalanine Ni(ii) complex with different alkyl and perfluoroalkyl iodides mediated by a dual Zn/Cu system. The reaction afforded diastereomeric complexes with dr up to 21.3 : 1 in 24-95% yields (19 examples). Exemplarily, three enantiomerically pure aliphatic α-AAs were obtained through acidic decomposition of (S,S)-diastereomers of Ni(ii) complexes. Importantly, the chiral auxiliary ligand (S)-BPB ((S)-2-(N-benzylprolyl)aminobenzophenone) was easily recycled by simple filtration after acidic complex decomposition and reused for the synthesis of the initial dehydroalanine Ni(ii) complex.

Abstract
The concept of chiral electroauxiliary based on the redox active chiral platform to perform transformations of a redox inactive substrate is suggested and discussed in the context of the targeted stereoselective electrochemical functionalization of amino acids. Tailor-made amino acids are essential structural features of modern medicinal chemistry and drug design; the development of efficient synthetic approaches to these compounds is of topical interest. The modified substrate (an amino acid) is included as a structural motif in the redox active complex (with a possibility to be released after modification) that integrates "a bifunctional linker" (the structural motif capable to "catch" a substrate) and a chiral moiety responsible for asymmetry induction. The amino acid, being included as a part of such ensemble, becomes stable towards redox destruction and its targeted electrochemical modification saving the amino acid skeleton is possible, thus developing new modes of reactivity for well-known compounds.

Abstract
A novel Cu(II) complex based on the Schiff base obtained by the condensation of ortho-vanillin with gamma-aminobutyric acid was synthesized. The compounds are physico-chemically characterized by elemental analysis, HR-ESI-MS, FT-IR, and UV-Vis. The complex and the Schiff base ligand are further structurally identified by single crystal X-ray diffraction and 1H and 13C-NMR, respectively. The results suggest that the Schiff base are synthesized in excellent yield under mild reaction conditions in the presence of glacial acetic acid and the crystal structure of its Cu(II) complex reflects an one-dimensional polymeric compound. The molecular structure of the complex consists of a Cu(II) ion bound to two singly deprotonated Schiff base bridging ligands that form a CuN2O4 chelation environment, and a coordination sphere with a disordered octahedral geometry.

Abstract
The use of chiral Ni (II)-complexes of glycine Schiff bases has recently emerged as a leading methodology for asymmetric synthesis of structurally diverse Tailor-Made Amino Acids™, playing a key role in the design of modern pharmaceuticals. Here, we report first example of enantioselective preparation of (S)-3-methyleneglutamic acid and its N-Fmoc derivative via a new type of Michael addition-elimination reaction between chiral nucleophilic glycine equivalent and enol tosylates. This reaction was found to proceed with excellent yield (91%) and diastereoselectivity (>99/1 de) allowing straightforward asymmetric synthesis of (S)-3-methyleneglutamic acid derivatives and analogues. The observed results bode well for general application of this Ni (II) complex approach for preparation and biological studies of this previously unknown type of Tailor-Made Amino Acids™.

Abstract
Electrically driven oxidation and reduction reactions are well-established methods for synthesis even in the chemical industry, but asymmetric versions are still few. The mild conditions used, atom efficiency and low cost make these reactions a very attractive alternative to other methods of synthesis. Very fine tuning can be achieved based on minute changes in potentials, allowing only one functional group in a molecule to react in the presence of several others, which is ideal for applications in total synthesis. In this review, the literature in the field of asymmetric synthesis of biologically active substances over the last 10 years is surveyed.

Abstract
Tailor-made AAs are indispensable components of modern medicinal chemistry and are becoming increasingly prominent in new drugs. In fact, about 30% of small-molecule pharmaceuticals contain residues of tailor-made AAs or structurally related diamines and amino-alcohols. Cyclic tailor-made AAs present a particular value to rational structural design by virtue of their local conformational constraints and are widely used in lead optimization programs. The present review article highlights 34 compounds, all of which are derived from cyclic AAs, representing recently-approved, small-molecule pharmaceuticals as well as promising drug candidates currently in various phases of clinical study. For each compound, the discussion includes the discovery, therapeutic profile and optimized synthesis, with a focus on the preparation of cyclic tailor-made AA as the principal structural feature. The present review article is intended to serve as a reference source for organic, medicinal and process chemists along with other professionals working in the fields of drug design and pharmaceutical discovery.

Abstract
The 22 genetically encoded amino acids (AAs) present in proteins (the 20 standard AAs together with selenocysteine and pyrrolysine), are commonly referred as proteinogenic AAs in the literature due to their appearance in ribosome-synthetized polypeptides. Beyond the borders of this key set of compounds, the rest of AAs are generally named imprecisely as non-proteinogenic AAs, even when they can also appear in polypeptide chains as a result of post-transductional machinery. Besides their importance as metabolites in life, many of D-α- and L-α-"non-canonical" amino acids (NcAAs) are of interest in the biotechnological and biomedical fields. They have found numerous applications in the discovery of new medicines and antibiotics, drug synthesis, cosmetic, and nutritional compounds, or in the improvement of protein and peptide pharmaceuticals. In addition to the numerous studies dealing with the asymmetric synthesis of NcAAs, many different enzymatic pathways have been reported in the literature allowing for the biosynthesis of NcAAs. Due to the huge heterogeneity of this group of molecules, this review is devoted to provide an overview on different established multienzymatic cascades for the production of non-canonical D-α- and L-α-AAs, supplying neophyte and experienced professionals in this field with different illustrative examples in the literature. Whereas the discovery of new or newly designed enzymes is of great interest, dusting off previous enzymatic methodologies by a "back and to the future" strategy might accelerate the implementation of new or improved multienzymatic cascades.
