A short and efficient synthesis of cinnoline-fused cyclic enediyne is reported. Richter cyclization of o-(1,3-butadiynyl)phenyltriazene produced 3-alkynyl-4-bromocinnoline. The Sonogashira coupling of the latter with 5-hexyn-1-ol was employed for the introduction of a second acetylenic moiety. The crucial cyclization step was

7-Benzoyloxy-3-(2-nitrophenylseleno)-1,5-cyclodecadiyne (13) was prepared from 5-hexyn-1-ol and propargyl bromide via 10-iodo-7-(t-butyldiphenylsiloxy)-5,9-decadiynal (10). The facile cyclization of the acyclic precursor 10 would be rationalized in terms of "bulky group (TBDPSO) assisted conformational control". Oxidation of 13 by NaIO4, followed by thermal

The first total syntheses of the Lycopodium alkaloids (+)-nankakurine A (2), (+)-nankakurine B (3), and the originally purported structure 1 of nankakurine A were accomplished. The syntheses of 2 and 3 feature a demanding intramolecular azomethine imine cycloaddition as the

Four novel 1,2,3-triazolium-functionalized starch derivatives were synthesized by N-alkylating the precursor starch derivatives with 1,2,3-triazole with iodomethane based on cuprous-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). The detailed structural characterization was investigated by means of FTIR, UV-vis

To enable the optimal, biocompatible and non-destructive application of the highly useful copper (Cu+)-mediated alkyne-azide 'click' cycloaddition in water, we have isolated and characterized a 79-nucleotide DNA enzyme or DNAzyme, 'CLICK-17', that harnesses as low as sub-micromolar Cu+; or, surprisingly
