A method for the selective tryptophan modification and labelling of tryptophan-containing peptides is described. Photoirradiation of acylsilanes generates reactive siloxycarbenes which undergo H?N-insertion into the indole moiety of tryptophan to give stable silyl protected hemiaminals. This method is successfully applied to chemically modify various tryptophan containing oligopeptides. The method enables the selective introduction of alkynes to peptides that are eligible for further alkyne-azide click chemistry. In addition, the dansyl fluorophore can be conjugated to a peptide using this approach.
Tertiary α-Silyl Alcohols by Diastereoselective Coupling of 1,3-Dienes and Acylsilanes Initiated by Enantioselective Copper-Catalyzed Borylation

An efficient synthesis of functionalized tertiary α-silyl alcohols by an enantio- and diastereoselective copper-catalyzed three-component coupling of 1,3-dienes, bis(pinacolato)diboron, and acylsilanes is reported. The reaction proceeds well with different 1,3-dienes and a broad range of aryl- as well as alkenyl- but also alkyl-substituted acylsilanes. The target compounds are formed with high regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity (up to 99 % ee and d.r. >20:1) and are highly versatile synthetic building blocks.
Oxidative [1,2]-Brook Rearrangements Exploiting Single-Electron Transfer: Photoredox-Catalyzed Alkylations and Arylations
Deng, Yifan,Liu, Qi,Smith, Amos B.
, p. 9487 - 9490 (2017/07/24)
Oxidative [1,2]-Brook rearrangements via hypervalent silicon intermediates induced by photoredox-catalyzed single-electron transfer have been achieved, permitting the formation of reactive radical species that can engage in alkylations and arylations.
