Selenocysteine is a valuable component of both natural selenoproteins and designer biocatalysts; however the availability of such proteins is hampered by technical limitations. Here we report the first general strategy for the production of selenoproteins via genetically-encoded incorporation of a synthetic photocaged selenocysteine residue in yeast cells, and provide examples of light-controlled protein dimerization and targeted covalent labeling in vitro.

In the aqueous solution, l-CySS-OMe induced pS-WP5 from racemic WP5. Upon the addition of dithiothreitol as a reducing reagent to the above system, pS-WP5 was then converted to pR-WP5 for the reason that l-CySS-OMe was reduced to l-Cys-OMe. Followed by the addition of H2O2 as an oxidation reagent, pR-WP5 was converted back to pS-WP5. The chiral conformational transferring process between pR-WP5 and pS-WP5 can be easily and visually observed by reading the CD signal.

A new catalytic protocol for the synthesis of selenoesters from aryl iodides and diaryl diselenides has been developed, where formic acid was employed as an efficient, low-cost, and safe substitute for toxic and gaseous CO. This protocol presents a high functional group tolerance, providing access to a large family of selenoesters in high yields (up to 97%) while operating under mild reaction conditions, and avoids the use of selenol which is difficult to manipulate, easily oxidizes, and has a bad odor. Additionally, this method can be efficiently extended to the synthesis of thioesters with moderate-to-excellent yields, by employing for the first time diorganyl disulfides as precursors.

The Pd-catalyzed S-allylation of thiols with stable allylcarbonate and allylacetate reagents offers several advantages over established reactions for the formation of thioethers. We could demonstrate that Pd/BIPHEPHOS is a catalyst system which allows the transition metal-catalyzed S-allylation of thiols with excellent n-regioselectivity. Mechanistic studies showed that this reaction is reversible under the applied reaction conditions. The excellent functional group tolerance of this transformation was demonstrated with a broad variety of thiol nucleophiles (18 examples) and allyl substrates (9 examples), and could even be applied for the late-stage diversification of cephalosporins, which might find application in the synthesis of new antibiotics.

Lantibiotics are a class of peptide antibiotics with activity against most Gram-positive bacteria. Lanthionine (Lan) and β-MeLan are unusual thioether-bridged, non-proteinogenic amino acids, which are characteristic features of lantibiotics. In this paper, we report the facile stereoselective synthesis of β-methyllanthionines with orthogonal protection by nucleophilic ring opening of aziridines. This method leads to an expedient access to β-methyllanthionines and allows production of over 30 g of β-methyllanthionine in a single batch.

We report herein the synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs), their characterization, and anion and cation sensing properties. Freshly prepared amide-triazole Ag NPs (3a-Ag NPs and 3b-Ag NPs) could detect fluoride and cations such as Hg2+ and Cd2+ in aqueous media with a color change from pink to brown. The cysteine-based Ag NPs 5b-Ag NPs showed a colorimetric response towards H2PO4-, whereas 6-Ag NPs showed a colorimetric response towards H2PO4- and HSO4- in aqueous media.
