Herein we report for the first time the use of dynamic covalent reactions (DCRs) for building a π-stacking model system and further quantifying its substituent effects (SEs), which remain a topic of debate despite the rich history of stacking. A general DCR between 10-methylacridinium ion and primary amines was discovered, in which π-stacking played a stabilizing role. Facile quantification of SEs with in situ competing π-stacking systems was next achieved in the form of amine exchange exhibiting structural diversity by simply varying components. The linear correlation with σm in Hammett plots indicates the dominance of purely electrostatic SEs, and the additivity of SEs is in line with the direct interaction model. With α-chiral amines π-stacking within the adduct enabled chirality transfer from homotopic faces. The strategy of dynamic covalent assembly should be appealing to future research of probing weak interactions and manipulating chirality.

Structure activity relationships for semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidase/vascular adhesion protein-1 (SSAO/VAP-1) were studied using a library of arylalkylamine substrates, with the aim of contributing to the discovery of more efficient SSAO substrates. Experimental data were contrasted with computational docking studies, thereby allowing us to examine the mechanism and substrate-binding affinity of SSAO and thus contribute to the discovery of more efficient SSAO substrates and provide a structural basis for their interactions. We also built a model of the mouse SSAO structure, which provides several structural rationales for interspecies differences in SSAO substrate selectivity and reveals new trends in SSAO substrate recognition. In this context, we identified novel efficient substrates for human SSAO that can be used as a lead for the discovery of antidiabetic agents.
