A copper-catalyzed one-pot perfluoroalkylation of alkynyl bromides and terminal alkynes has been disclosed, and the corresponding perfluoroalkylated alkynes could be attained in good to excellent yields. The new straightforward transformation shows high efficiency (0.01-0.5 mol % catalyst loading), broad substrate scope, and remarkable functional group tolerance and provides a facile approach for useful application in life and material sciences.

Early precise diagnosis of cancers is crucial to realize more effective therapeutic interventions with minimal toxic effects. Cancer phenotypes may also alter greatly among patients and within individuals over the therapeutic process. The identification and characterization of specific biomarkers expressed on tumor cells are in high demand for diagnosis and treatment, but they are still a challenge. Herein, we designed three new bioorthogonal surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) nanoprobes and successfully applied the cocktail of them for MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 breast cancer multiplex phenotype detection. The SERS nanoprobes containing Raman reporters with diynl, azide, or cyano moieties demonstrated apparent Raman shift peaks in 2205, 2120, and 2230 cm-1, respectively, in the biologically Raman-silent region. Three target ligands, including oligonucleotide aptamer (AS1411), arginine-glycine-aspatic acid (RGD) peptide, and homing cell adhesion molecule antibody (anti-CD44), were separately conjugated to the nanoprobes for active recognition capability. The cocktail of the nanoprobes manifested minimal cytotoxicity and simultaneously multiplex phenotype imaging of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells. Quantitative measurement of cellular uptake by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) verified that MDA-MB-231 cells harbored a much higher expression level of CD44 receptor than MCF-7 cells. For in vivo SERS detection, Raman shift peaks of 2120, 2205, and 2230 cm-1 in the micro-tumor were clearly observed, representing the existence of three specific biomarkers of nucleolin, integrin αvβ3, and CD44 reporter, which could be used for early cancer phenotype identification. The biodistribution results indicated that target ligand modified nanoprobes exhibited much more accumulation in tumors than those nanoprobes without target ligands. The multicolor cocktail of bioorthogonal SERS nanoprobes offers an attractive and insightful strategy for early cancer multiplex phenotype targeting and diagnosis in vivo that is noninvasive and has low cross-talk, unique spectral-molecular signature, high sensitivity, and negligible background interference.

A visible-light-promoted oxo-sulfonylation of ynamides with sulfonic acids is reported, giving rise to a collection of functionalized α-sulfonylated amides in a straightforward manner. The reaction proceeds sequentially through a cascade of electrophilic addition and photoinduced sulfonyl radical-sustained skeleton rearrangement. The high atom economy, mild reaction conditions, and wide substrate scope comprised the merits of this synthetic transformation.
