Small peptide diversification through photoredox-catalyzed oxidative C-terminal modification

Jérôme Waser, Eliott Hugo Joran Le Du, Marion Marie-Agnès Garreau

A photoredox-catalyzed oxidative decarboxylative coupling of small peptides is reported, giving access to a variety of N,O-acetals. They were used as intermediates for the addition of phenols and indoles, leading to novel peptide scaffolds and bioconjugate ...
