The NHC-catalyzed reaction of enals with dinitrotoluene derivatives under oxidative conditions proceeds via the chiral alpha,beta-unsaturated acylazoliums and produces the delta-lactones in good yields and excellent diastereoselectivity and enantioselectivity.

Through sequential N-methylation, we successfully converted the biselective alpha 5 beta 1/alpha v beta 6 peptide c(phg-isoDGR-k) into a potent peptidic RGD binding aSfil subtype selective ligand c(phg-isoDGR-(NMe)k). Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and molecular modeling clarified the molecular basis of its improved selectivity profile. To demonstrate its potential in vivo, c(phg-isoDGR-(NMe)k) was trimerized with the chelator TRAP and used as a positron-emission tomography tracer for monitoring alpha 5 beta 1 integrin expression in a M21 mouse xenograft.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.259</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Das, Tamal Kanti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ghosh, Avik</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balanna, Kuruva</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Behera, Pradipta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gonnade, Rajesh G.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marelli, Udaya Kiran</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Das, Abhijit Kumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biju, Akkattu T.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">N-Heterocyclic carbene-catalyzed umpolung of imines for the enantioselective synthesis of dihydroquinoxalines</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ACS Catalysis</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">dihydroquinoxalines</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">imines</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">N-heterocyclic carbenes</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">organocatalysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">umpolung</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAY</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">9</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4065-4071</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) organocatalysis is widely employed for the umpolung of aldehydes and recently to the umpolung of Michael acceptors and aldimines. Described herein is the NHC-organocatalyzed umpolung of aldimines for the enantioselective synthesis of nitrogen heterocycles. The bisimines generated from the condensation of 1,2-phenylenediamines and salicylaldehydes undergo intramolecular cyclization in the presence of a chiral NHC catalyst, resulting in the formation of dihydroquinoxalines in moderate to good yields and er values. Detailed DFT studies shed light on the role of -OH groups in stabilizing the initially generated aza-Breslow intermediates via intramolecular hydrogen bonds. Preliminary photophysical studies on the synthesized dihydroquinoxalines revealed that these molecules can be used for the sensing of various acids and bases.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11.384</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Das, Tamal Kanti</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Madica, Krishnaprasad</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Krishnan, Jagadeesh</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Marelli, Udaya Kiran</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Biju, Akkattu T.</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">N-heterocyclic carbene catalysis exploiting oxidative imine umpolung for the generation of imidoyl azoliums</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal of Organic Chemistry</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2020</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">APR </style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">85</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5114-5121</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Although NHC-catalyzed umpolung of imines are known, the related reactions under oxidative conditions are limited.

We have incorporated various unnatural lipophilic amino acids into the cyclic RGD framework of cilengitide, which is selective for alpha nu beta(3) integrin. All the newly synthesized cyclic peptides were evaluated in vitro solid phase binding assay and investigated for their binding behaviour towards integrin subtypes. All the cyclic peptides were synthesized in excellent yield following solution-phase coupling strategy. The cyclic RGD peptides 1a-e exhibited IC50 of 9.9, 5.5, 72, 11 and 3.3 nM, respectively, towards a alpha nu beta(3) integrin protein. This finding offers further opportunities for the introduction unusual amino acids into the cyclic peptide framework of cilengitide.&lt;/p&gt;
