Hairpin polyamide analogs of distamycin A ( 1 ) were designed and synthesized to evaluate their ability to bind 5 ' -ATAGA-3 ' and 5 ' -AGATA-3 ' sequences which are important elements for controlling the function of the Brn-3b and GATA-3 transcriptional factors, respectively. The hairpin polyamides are composed of pyrrole and imidazole units linked together via a γ -aminobutyrate (GABA) unit. Hairpins 2b (Py-Py-Im- γ -Py-Py-Py) and 2c (Im-Py-Py- γ -Py-Py-Py) were synthesized to target the respective Brn-3b and GATA-3 cognate sequences. Preliminary biophysical studies including thermal denaturation and circular dichroism were performed and the results ascertained the binding of hairpins 2a and 2b to their respective cognate DNA sequences.
Facile synthesis of oligopeptide distamycin analogs devoid of hydrogen- bond donors or acceptors at the N-terminus: Sequence-specific duplex DNA binding as a function of peptide chain length

The first examples of distamycin analogs, which lack hydrogen bond interactor groups at the N-terminus, have been synthesized. The bispyrrole peptide did not exhibit any detectable binding with double-stranded (ds) DNA. However, all other homologues did bind to ds-DNA strongly, with the binding affinities increasing as a function of the number of repeating pyrrole carboxamide units, implying that a hydrogen bond donor or acceptor atom per se at the N-terminus is not essential for their DNA binding. Studies with poly d(GC) showed that the N-terminal formamide is not a prerequisite for GC binding, contrary to earlier postulations. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd.

We have developed a copper-mediated C–H thiolation of (hetero)arenes by using monodentate amide as weakly coordinating directing group. This protocol features excellent functional group tolerance and shows satisfactory compatibility with various heterocycles, such as indole, pyrrole, imidazole, pyridine, thiophene and quinoline. The robust nature of this protocol renders that it has potential value in the synthetic application.
Amide Effects in C?H Activation: Noncovalent Interactions with L-Shaped Ligand for meta Borylation of Aromatic Amides

A new concept for the meta-selective borylation of aromatic amides is described. It has been demonstrated that while esters gave para borylations, amides lead to meta borylations. For achieving high meta selectivity, an L-shaped bifunctional ligand has been employed and engages in an O???K noncovalent interaction with the oxygen atom of the moderately distorted amide carbonyl group. This interaction provides exceptional control for meta C?H activation/borylation.
