Diastereoselective protonation of potassium enolates of chiral Schiff bases prepared from racemic α-amino esters and 2-hydroxypinan-3-one afforded, after mild cleavage of the imine function, optically active α- amino esters.

It is extremely difficult to anticipate the structure and the stereochemistry of a complex, particularly when the ligand is flexible and the metal node adopts diverse coordination numbers. When trivalent lanthanides (LnIII) and enantiopure amino acid ligands are utilized as building blocks, self-assembly sometimes yields rare chiral polynuclear structures. In this study, an enantiopure carboxyl-functionalized amino acid-based ligand with C3 symmetry reacts with lanthanum cations to give a homochiral porous coordination cage, (Δ/λ)12-PCC-57. The dodecanuclear lanthanide cage has an unprecedented octahedral "cage-in-cage"framework. During the self-assembly, the chirality is transferred from the enantiopure ligand and fixed by the binuclear lanthanide cluster to give 12 metal centers that have either Δor λ homochiral stereochemistry. The cage exhibits excellent enantioselective separation of racemic alcohols, 2,3-dihydroquinazolinones, and multiple commercially available drugs. This finding exhibits a rare example of a multinuclear lanthanide complex with a dual-walled topology and homochirality. The highly ordered self-assembly and self-sorting of flexible amino acids and lanthanides shed light on the chiral transformation between different complicated artificial systems that mimic natural enzymes.

Herein we report the synthesis of a series of amino acid-derived triazoles by an organocatalytic cycloaddition reaction between azides and carbonyl compounds, catalyzed by a simple amine. These compounds present absorption maxima located in the UV-B ascribed to fully spin and symmetry allowed electronic transitions and a main fluorescence emission in the UV-A (~380 nm) with a relatively large Stokes shift (5700 cm?1). No significant solvatochromism was observed in both ground and excited states. Unexpectedly, the benzoxazole derivatives presented much higher fluorescence quantum yield values (40–80%) of compared to the sulfur analogues (3–6%). In addition, the DNA binding assays indicated that these compounds presented strong interaction with CT-DNA, which could be attributed to π-stacking and intermolecular hydrogen-bonding. The interaction of the benzazoles with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was also investigated, where a suppression mechanism was observed. In each case, docking was performed to better understand the observed interactions.
