The thiol-ene ‘click’ reaction has emerged as a versatile process for carbon–sulfur bond formation with widespread applications in chemical biology, medicinal chemistry and materials science. Thioesters are key intermediates in a wide range of synthetic and biological processes and efficient methods for their synthesis are of considerable interest. Herein, we report the first examples of acyl-thiol-ene (ATE) for the synthesis of biomolecular thioesters, including peptide, lipid and carbohydrate derivatives. A key finding is the profound effect of the amino acid side chain on the outcome of the ATE reaction. Furthermore, radical generated thioesters underwent efficient S-to-N acyl transfer and desulfurisation to furnish ‘sulfur-free’ ligation products in an overall amidation process with diverse applications for chemical ligation and bioconjugation.

A convenient synthesis of δ,γ-unsaturated valine (L-3,4- didehydrovaline), an important constituent of an antibiotic phomopsin A, was achieved from H-D-Ser-OH through a seven-step conversion in 31percent overall yield.
