We herein describe a flexible synthesis of a small library of Ga-labeled CAIX-targeted molecules via an orthogonal 2-cyanobenzothiazole (CBT)/1,2-aminothiol click reaction. Three novel CBT-functionalized chelators (⁻) were successfully synthesized and labeled with the positron emitter gallium-68. Cross-ligation between the pre-labeled bifunctional chelators (BFCs) and the 1,2-aminothiol-acetazolamide derivatives ( and ) yielded six new Ga-labeled CAIX ligands with high radiochemical yields. The click reaction conditions were optimized to improve the reaction rate for applications with short half-life radionuclides. Overall, our methodology allows for a simple and efficient radiosynthetic route to produce a variety of Ga-labeled imaging agents for tumor hypoxia.

The advancement of bioorthogonal cleavage platforms has emerged as a critical frontier in chemical biology, offering precise molecular liberation through physiologically compatible activation mechanisms. Despite its significant potential, ensuring efficacy typically requires rapid reaction kinetics, high-efficiency payload release, and stable reactants; however, relevant reports remain sparse. Herein, we developed a strain-promoted alkyne-nitrone cycloaddition (SPANC)-based click-release chemistry through installation of a carbamate-linked release moiety at the propargyl position of cyclooctyne, triggering a spontaneous elimination following click cycloaddition to achieve efficient payload liberation.

Infected wound treatment remains a critical challenge in clinical medicine. Although existing treatments, like local debridement, antimicrobial agents, and growth factor therapies, have demonstrated certain therapeutic effects, they primarily target only specific stages of wound healing. Moreover, the escalating issue of antibiotic resistance limits their efficacy.

The preparation of multimodal nanoparticles by capping magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) with functional organic molecules is a major area of research for biomedical applications. Conjugation reactions, such as carbodiimide coupling and the highly selective class of reactions known as "click chemistry", have been instrumental in tailoring the ligand layers of IONPs to produce functional biomedical nanomaterials. However, few studies report the controls performed to determine if the loading of molecules onto IONPs is due to the proposed coupling reaction(s) employed, or some other unknown interaction with the IONP surface.

Chemically modified oligonucleotides (ONs) are essential tools in molecular biology, diagnostics, and therapeutics. Strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) offers an efficient and bioorthogonal method for ON functionalization. While SPAAC reactions on solid-phase support provide distinct advantages, particularly for the incorporation of lipophilic labels, factors influencing their efficiency remain poorly characterized.

Optically active α-aminophosphonic acids are unique analogues of α-amino acids, and numerous synthetic methods have been developed. Herein, we present a highly diastereoselective α-azidation approach to the CAMDOL-derived phosphonates, enabling ready access to 27 diverse α-azidophosphonates with defined chirality in up to 85% yield and more than 99:1 dr. Late-stage transformations through the Staudinger reaction or click reaction efficiently delivered the related pharmacological α-aminophosphonic acids or the unique α-triazolylphosphonate derivative, respectively.
