Abstract
A new approach of dual visible light‐induced gold(III)‐catalyzed alkynylation and its application in selective modification of alkyne‐linked peptides has been developed. The bis‐cyclometalated gold(III) complex exhibited dual roles of (1) in situ generation of quinolizinium‐based photosensitizer (λem=500 – 594 nm) and (2) alkynylation of iminium ions. Under optimized conditions, alkynylated products were afforded in good yields up to 73 %. The application of this strategy in selective modification of alkyne‐linked peptides gave modified peptides in up to 67 % conversion. Our dual visible light/gold(III) catalysis exemplifies the potential of merging photocatalysis and transition metal catalysis to develop novel bioconjugation.
期刊介绍:
Organic chemistry is the fundamental science that stands at the heart of chemistry, biology, and materials science. Research in these areas is vigorous and truly international, with three major regions making almost equal contributions: America, Europe and Asia. Asia now has its own top international organic chemistry journal—the Asian Journal of Organic Chemistry (AsianJOC)
The AsianJOC is designed to be a top-ranked international research journal and publishes primary research as well as critical secondary information from authors across the world. The journal covers organic chemistry in its entirety. Authors and readers come from academia, the chemical industry, and government laboratories.
