The design, synthesis, structure, and binding affinity of two dioptic receptors for the selective molecular recognition of the cis,syn cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer are reported. The design is based on two 2,6-di(acetamino)pyridine recognition units that are covalently linked via triple bonds to an anthraquinone functional spacer unit. The convergent synthesis uses a modified Sonogashira reaction involving a zinc transmetalation as the key step. The crystal structure of one of the receptors reveals a supramolecular 1D polymer with strong interactions mediated by shape self-complementarity, π-stacking, and hydrogen bonding between adjacent molecules. Hydrogen bonding between adjacent strands enforces a parallel orientation, which leads to a noncentrosymmetric crystal structure of the highly polar compound. The receptor has an association constant of K a = 1.0 × 103 M-1 with the cis,syn pyrimidine dimer, whereas binding of the trans,syn isomer is approximately 1 order of magnitude weaker.

Time-resolved luminescence measurements of luminescent lanthanide complexes have advantages in biological assays and high-throughput screening, owing to their high sensitivity. In spite of the recent advances in their energy-transfer mechanism and molecular-orbital-based computational molecular design, it is still difficult to estimate the quantum yields of new luminescent lanthanide complexes. Herein, solid-phase libraries of luminescent lanthanide complexes were prepared through amide-condensation and Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions and their luminescent properties were screened with a microplate reader. Good correlation was observed between the time-resolved luminescence intensities of the solid-phase libraries and those of the corresponding complexes that were synthesized by using liquid-phase chemistry. This method enabled the rapid and efficient development of new sensitizers for SmIII, EuIII, and TbIII luminescence. Thus, solid-phase combinatorial synthesis combined with on-resin screening led to the discovery of a wide variety of luminescent sensitizers. La confidential: Solid-phase synthesis by using amide-condensation and Pd-coupling reactions enabled the efficient development of new antenna ligands for SmIII, EuIII, and Tb III atoms for discovering a wide variety of luminescent sensitizers.

Recently, we reported potent substrate-based pentapeptidic BACE1 inhibitors possessing a hydroxymethylcarbonyl isostere as a substrate transition-state mimic. Because these inhibitors contained some natural amino acids, we would need to improve their enzymatic stability in vivo and permeability across the blood-brain barrier, so that they become practically useful. Subsequently, non-peptidic and small-sized BACE1 inhibitors possessing a heterocyclic scaffold, 2,6-pyridenedicarboxylic, chelidamic or chelidonic moiety, at the P2 position were reported. These inhibitors were designed based on the conformer of docked inhibitor in BACE1. In this study, we discuss the role and significance of interactions between Arg235 of BACE1 and its inhibitor in BACE1 inhibitory mechanism. Moreover, we designed more potent small-sized BACE1 inhibitors with a 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic scaffold at the P2 position, that were optimized for the interactions with Arg235 of BACE1.
