Abstract
Broad application of α,α-disubstituted cyclic amino acid derivatives in medicinal chemistry urges for analogue design with improved pharmacokinetic properties. Herein, we disclose an electrochemical approach toward unnatural THF- and THP-containing amino acid derivatives that relies on anodic decarboxylation-intramolecular etherification of inexpensive and readily available N-acetylamino malonic acid monoesters under Hofer-Moest reaction conditions. The decarboxylative cyclization proceeds under constant current conditions in an undivided cell in an aqueous medium without any added base. A successful bioisosteric replacement of the 1-aminocyclohexane-1-carboxylic acid subunit by the THP-containing amino acid scaffold in cathepsin K inhibitor balicatib helped to reduce lipophilicity while retaining low nanomolar enzyme inhibitory potency and comparable microsomal stability.

Abstract
Three structurally similar silane reagents with different terminal groups were prepared and bonded to silica to obtain three structurally similar stationary phases (Sil-Ph-COOH, Sil-Phe and Sil-Ph-NH2). The prepared stationary phases were characterized through elemental analysis (EA) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). These three stationary phases provided acceptable retention repeatability (relative standard deviations between 0.08% and 0.13%) and high column efficiency (7.3 × 104 plates/m for uridine on Sil-Phe). The retention behavior of the three columns was investigated under different chromatographic conditions including different mobile phase ratio, salt concentration, pH etc. The retention mechanisms were explored by linear solvation energy relationships and Van't Hoff plots. Applications in separation under reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) and ion exchange chromatography (IEC) mode were investigated. The results showed that the retention capacity of the stationary phases with different terminal groups to the analytes is very different, especially for carboxylic acids, because the surface charges of amino groups and carboxyl groups under weakly acidic conditions produce different electrostatic effects with dissociated carboxylic acids. Finally, the Sil-Phe column was employed to detect ibuprofen extracted from pharmaceutical ibuprofen capsules and vitamins extracted from vitamin tablets.

Abstract
The incorporation of fluorinated groups into peptides significantly affects their biophysical properties. We report herein the synthesis of Fmoc-protected trifluoromethylthiolated tyrosine (CF3S-Tyr) and tryptophan (CF3S-Trp) analogues on a gram scale (77-93% yield) and demonstrate their use as highly hydrophobic fluorinated building blocks for peptide chemistry. The developed methodology was successfully applied to the late-stage regioselective trifluoromethylthiolation of Trp residues in short peptides (66-80% yield) and the synthesis of various CF3S-analogues of biologically active monoamines. To prove the concept, Fmoc-(CF3S)Tyr and -Trp were incorporated into the endomorphin-1 chain (EM-1) and into model tripeptides by solid-phase peptide synthesis. A remarkable enhancement of the local hydrophobicity of the trifluoromethylthiolated peptides was quantified by the chromatographic hydrophobicity index determination method, demonstrating the high potential of CF3S-containing amino acids for the rational design of bioactive peptides.

Abstract
The emergence of multidrug resistance (MDR) in malignant tumors is one of the leading threats encountered currently in many chemotherapeutic agents. The overexpression of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters is involved in MDR. P-glycoprotein (P-gp)/ABCB1 is a member of the ABC transporter family that significantly increases the efflux of various anticancer drugs from tumor cells. Therefore, targeting P-gp with small molecule inhibitors is an effective therapeutic strategy to overcome MDR. Over the past four decades, diverse compounds with P-gp inhibitory activity have been identified to sensitize drug-resistant cells, but none of them has been proven clinically useful to date. Research efforts continue to discover an effective approach for circumventing MDR. This review has provided an overview of the most recent advances (last three years) in various strategies for circumventing MDR mediated by P-gp. It may be helpful for the scientists working in the field of drug discovery to further synthesize and discover new chemical entities/therapeutic modalities with less toxicity and more efficacies to overcome MDR in cancer chemotherapy.

Abstract
The strategic fluorination of oxidatively vulnerable sites in bioactive compounds is a relatively recent, widely used approach allowing us to modulate the stability, bio-absorption, and overall efficiency of pharmaceutical drugs. On the other hand, natural and tailor-made amino acids are traditionally used as basic scaffolds for the development of bioactive molecules. The main goal of this review article is to emphasize these general trends featured in recently approved pharmaceutical drugs.

Abstract
Photoaffinity labeling is a powerful technique to investigate the interactions between bioactive peptides and their targets. To construct a peptide-derived photoaffinity probe, at least two amino acids need to be modified or replaced, increasing experimental difficulties and negatively affecting activity. Herein, we report the synthesis of a clickable, photoreactive amino acid p-(4-(but-3-yn-1-yl)benzoyl)-l-phenylalanine (Abpa) and its Fmoc-protected version from 3-(4-bromophenyl)-1-propanol in 11 steps with an overall 12.5% yield. The amino acid contains both a photoreactive benzophenone and a clickable terminal alkyne which acts like a reporter tag by fast attachment to other functional groups via 'click' reaction, and a photoaffinity probe could be created by one single amino acid substitution during peptide synthesis. And its small size helps to retain bioactivity. The efficiency of Abpa was demonstrated by photoaffinity labeling experiments using photoactivatable probes of α-conotoxin MI.

Abstract
Chemo- and diastereoselective 1,4-conjugate additions of anionic and radical C-nucleophiles to a chiral bicyclic dehydroalanine (Dha) are described. Of particular importance, radical carbon photolysis by a catalytic photoredox process using a simple method with a metal-free photocatalyst provides exceptional yields and selectivities at room temperature. Moreover, these 1,4-conjugate additions offer an excellent starting point for synthesizing enantiomerically pure carbon-β-substituted unnatural α-amino acids (UAAs), which could have a high potential for applications in chemical biology.

Abstract
An operationally simple and convenient resolution method via Cu(II) complexes was reported, efficiently providing valuable enantiopure N,C-unprotected α-amino acids. This protocol features synthetically attractive yields and a stereochemical outcome, using a recyclable Schiff base ligand and inexpensive easily accessible metal copper salts. These novel Cu(II) complexes can be obtained in an enantiopure state by means of column chromatography or recrystallization. Furthermore, all the Cu(II) complexes were evaluated for their antibacterial activities. Among them, complexes (S,2S)-3a, (S,2S)-3g, and (S,2S)-3o showed significant antibacterial activities against Staphylococcus aureus Mu50. Further biological evaluation indicated that they were effective against most of Gram-positive bacteria. It is the first study on the biological activities of transition metal complexes with this type of proline-derived Schiff base ligand.

Abstract
Overexpression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) plays a key role in the development of multidrug resistance (MDR), the major reason for the failure of chemotherapy in clinics. Ocotillol and its derivatives had been reported with good P-gp-mediated tumor MDR reversal activity in vitro. Herein, a series of ocotillol derivatives fused with 2-aminothiazole (2-AT) via A-ring were designed and synthesized to further improve the tumor MDR reversal potency. These compounds were evaluated for their MDR reversal activity against the KBV cells by MTT assay. Among them, the most promising derivative against P-gp-mediated MDR was compound 12 with 2-AT and glycine in the A-ring. Rhodamine123 (Rh123) accumulation assay, Western blot assay, and P-gp-Glo™ assay showed that compound 12 efficiently inhibited the efflux function of P-gp by stimulating P-gp ATPase rather than downregulating its expression. Moreover, compound 12 sensitized KBV cells to paclitaxel arrested cells in the G2/M phase and induced cell apoptosis. Importantly, compound 12 significantly inhibited the growth of KBV cell-derived xenograft tumors in nude mice by increasing the sensitivity of paclitaxel in vivo. Finally, the structure-activity relationships (SARs) of ocotillol derivatives were further investigated. In summary, compound 12 has the potential to overcome MDR in cancer caused by P-gp.

Abstract
Nowadays, the selective introduction of fluorine into bioactive compounds is a mature strategy in the design of drugs allowing to increase efficiency, biological half-life and bio-absorption. On the other hand, amino acids (AAs) represent one of the most ubiquitious classes of naturally occurring organic compounds, which are found in over 40% of newly marked small-molecule pharmaceutical drugs and medical formulations. The primary goal of this work is to underscore two major trends in the design of modern pharmaceuticals. The first is dealing with the unique structural characteristics provided by the structure of amino acids featuring an abundance of functionality and the presence of a stereogenic center, all of which bodes well for the successful development of targeted bioactivity. The second is related to fine-tuning the desired activity and pharmacokinetics by selective introduction of fluorine. Historically, both trends were developed separately as innovative and prolific approaches in modern drug design. However, in recent decades, these approaches are clearly converging leading to an ever-increasing number of newly approved pharmaceuticals containing both structural features of amino acids and fluorine.

Abstract
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) represents one of the most prolific structural units widely used in the design of modern pharmaceuticals. For example, β-substituted GABA derivatives are found in numerous neurological drugs, such as baclofen, phenibut, tolibut, pregabalin, phenylpiracetam, brivaracetam, and rolipram, to mention just a few. In this review, we critically discuss the literature data reported on the preparation of substituted GABA derivatives using the Michael addition reaction as a key synthetic transformation. Special attention is paid to asymmetric methods featuring synthetically useful stereochemical outcomes and operational simplicity.

Abstract
Amino acids (AAs) play an important role in the modern health industry as key synthetic precursors for pharmaceuticals, biomaterials, biosensors, and drug delivery systems. Currently, over 30% of small-molecule drugs contain residues of tailor-made AAs or derived from them amino-alcohols and di-amines. In this review article, we profile 12 AA-derived new pharmaceuticals approved by the FDA in 2020. These newly introduced drugs include Tazverik (epithelioid sarcoma), Gemtesa (overactive bladder), Zeposia (multiple sclerosis), Byfavo (induction and maintenance of procedural sedation), Cu 64 dotatate, and Gallium 68 PSMA-11 (both PET imaging), Rimegepant (acute migraine), Zepzelca (lung cancer), Remdesivir (COVID-19), Amisulpride (nausea and vomiting), Setmelanotide (obesity), and Lonafarnib (progeria syndrome). For each compound, we describe the spectrum of biological activity, medicinal chemistry discovery, and synthetic preparation.

Abstract
Novel functionalized azaheterocycles with multiple chiral centers have been accessed from readily available norbornene β-amino acids or β-lactams across a stereocontrolled synthetic route, based on ring-opening metathesis (ROM) of the staring unsaturated bicyclic amino esters, followed by selective cyclization through ring-closing metathesis (RCM). The RCM transformations have been studied under various experimental conditions to assess the scope of conversion, catalyst, yield, and substrate influence. The structure of the starting norbornene β-amino acids predetermined the structure of the new azaheterocycles, and the developed synthetic route took place with the conservation of the configuration of the chiral centers.

Abstract
Dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) of unprotected amino acids (AAs), via intermediate formation of Ni(II) complexes, is currently a leading methodology for preparation of natural and tailor-made AAs in enantiomerically pure form. In this work, we conduct a comparative case study of synthetic performance of four different ligands in DKR of six AAs representing aryl-, benzyl-, alkyl-, and long alkyl-type derivatives. The results of this study allow for rational selection of ligand/AA type to develop a practical procedure for preparation of target enantiomerically pure AAs.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to highlight the necessity of conducting tests to gauge the magnitude of the self-disproportionation of enantiomers (SDE) phenomenon to ensure the veracity of reported enantiomeric excess (ee) values for scalemic samples obtained from enantioselective reactions, natural products isolation, etc. The SDE always occurs to some degree whenever any scalemic sample is subjected to physicochemical processes concomitant with the fractionation of the sample, thus leading to erroneous reporting of the true ee of the sample if due care is not taken to either preclude the effects of the SDE by measurement of the ee prior to the application of physicochemical processes, suppressing the SDE, or evaluating all obtained fractions of the sample. Or even avoiding fractionation altogether if possible. There is a clear necessity to conduct tests to assess the magnitude of the SDE for the processes applied to samples and the updated and improved recommendations described herein cover chromatography and processes involving gas-phase transformations such as evaporation or sublimation.
