Supramolecular catalysts emulate the mechanism of enzymes to achieve large rate accelerations and precise selectivity under mild and aqueous conditions. While significant strides have been made in the supramolecular host-promoted synthesis of small molecules, applications of this reactivity to chemoselective and site-selective modification of complex biomolecules remain virtually unexplored. We report here a supramolecular system where coencapsulation of pyridine-borane with a variety of molecules including enones, ketones, aldehydes, oximes, hydrazones, and imines effects efficient reductions under basic aqueous conditions. Upon subjecting unprotected lysine to the host-mediated reductive amination conditions, we observed excellent ?-selectivity, indicating that differential guest binding within the same molecule is possible without sacrificing reactivity. Inspired by the post-translational modification of complex biomolecules by enzymatic systems, we then applied this supramolecular reaction to the site-selective labeling of a single lysine residue in an 11-amino acid peptide chain and human insulin.

A visible-light mediated γ-hydroxyalkylation of ketones via C(sp3)-H functionalization has been developed under redox neutral conditions. This protocol relies on the iminyl radical-triggered 1,5-HAT followed by oxyalkylation of alkenes, wherein C?C and C?O bonds were constructed in one step. This three-component reaction features mild conditions, wide substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance, thus providing a facile and highly efficient access to complex valuable ketones.
