An unprecedented deformylative coupling of salicylaldehydes to acrylates and acrylamides under Rh-catalyzed conditions is reported. These deformylative couplings afforded o-hydroxycinnamates and o-hydroxycinnamamides with broad functional group tolerance and high chemoselectivity under milder reaction conditions.

This paper evaluates the ohydroxycinnamic platform for designing efficient caging groups with fluorescence reporting upon one- and two-photon excitation. The model cinnamates are easily prepared in one step by coupling commercial or readily available synthons. They exhibit a large one-photon absorption that can be tuned in the near-UV range. Uncaging after one-photon excitation was investigated by 1H NMR, UV-vis absorption, and steady-state fluorescence emission. In the whole investigated series, the caged substrate is quantitatively released upon photolysis. At the same time, uncaging releases a strongly fluorescent coproduct that can be used as a reporter for quantitative substrate delivery. The quantum yield of double bond photoisomerization leading to uncaging after one-photon absorption mostly lies in the 10% range. Taking advantage of the favorable photophysical properties of the uncaging coproduct, we use a series of techniques based on fluorescence emission to measure the action uncaging cross sections with two-photon excitation of the present cinnamates. Exhibiting values in the 1-10 GM range at 750 nm, they satisfactorily compare with the most efficient caging groups reported to date. Noticeably, the uncaging behavior with two-photon excitation is retained in vivo as suggested by the results observed in living zebrafish embryos. Reliable structure property relationships were extracted from analysis of the present collected data. In particular, the careful kinetic analysis allows us to discuss the relevance of the ohydroxycinnamic platform for diverse caging applications with one- and two-photon excitation.
