Electronic effects versus distortion energies during strain-promoted alkyne-azide cycloadditions: A theoretical tool to predict reaction kinetics

Second-order reaction kinetics of known strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions were compared with theoretical data from a range of ab initio methods. This produced both detailed insights into the factors determining the reaction rates and two straightforward theoretical tools that can be used to predict a priori the reaction kinetics of novel cyclooctynes for strain-promoted cycloaddition reactions. Multiple structural and electronic effects contribute to the reactivity of various cyclooctynes. It is therefore hard to relate a physical or electronic property directly and independently to the reactivity of the cyclooctyne. However, we show that Hartree-Fock LUMO energies, which were acquired while calculating activation energies at the MP2 level of theory, correlate with second-order kinetic rate data and are therefore usable for reactivity predictions of cyclooctynes towards azides. Using this correlation, we developed a simple theoretical tool that can be used to predict the reaction kinetics of (novel) cyclooctynes for SPAAC reactions. Activation energies, distortion energies, and TS conformational data were compared in a set of strained cyclooctynes in strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions. Only electronic effects could be accurately related to experimental rate data. Copyright

Live Monitoring of Strain-Promoted Azide Alkyne Cycloadditions in Complex Reaction Environments by Inline ATR-IR Spectroscopy

The strain-promoted azide alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) is a powerful tool for forming covalent bonds between molecules even under physiological conditions, and therefore found broad application in fields ranging from biological chemistry and biomedical research to materials sciences. For many applications, knowledge about reaction kinetics of these ligations is of utmost importance. Kinetics are commonly assessed and studied by NMR measurements. However, these experiments are limited in terms of temperature and restricted to deuterated solvents. By using an inline ATR-IR probe we show that the cycloaddition of azides and alkynes can be monitored in aqueous and even complex biological fluids enabling the investigation of reaction kinetics in various solvents and even human blood plasma under controlled conditions in low reaction volumes.

Study and application of noncatalyzed photoinduced conjugation of azides and cycloocta-1,2,3-selenadiazoles

The non-catalyzed cycloaddition of eight structurally different azides with cyclooctyne generated in situ by the photolysis of cycloocta-1,2,3-selenadiazole gives 1,2,3-triazole derivatives as the main products. The application of this reaction was demonstrated by the photoconjugation reaction of cycloocta-1,2,3-selenadiazole with an avidin-modified biotin complex to introduce a new strategy in the non-catalyzed synthesis of bioconjugates.

Generation of cycloheptynes and cyclooctynes via a sulfoxide-magnesium exchange reaction of readily synthesized 2-sulfinylcycloalkenyl triflates

Cycloheptynes and cyclooctynes were efficiently generated via a sulfoxide-magnesium exchange reaction of readily synthesized 2-sulfinylcycloalkenyl triflates. Cycloadditions between various ynophiles and the cycloalkynes generated by this method proceeded

TETRAZINE-BASED BIO-ORTHOGONAL COUPLING REAGENTS AND METHODS

Coupling reactions, suitable for use in organic or aqueous media, are performed by contacting a 1,2,4,5-tetrazine with a dienophile. The dienophile may be covalently bonded to a protein, and the coupling reaction may be performed in biological media such as those containing cells or cell lysates. The reactions may be performed in the presence of primary amines, thiols, acetylenes, azides, phosphines, and products of Staudinger and/or Sharpless-Huisgen reactions Novel 3-substituted cyclopropene compounds and trans-cyclooctenes are exemplary dienophiles for these reactions.
