Abstract
Chemical-nose strategy has achieved certain success in the discrimination and identification of pathogens. However, this strategy usually relies on non-specific interactions, which are prone to be significantly disturbed by the change of environment thus limiting its practical usefulness. Herein, we present a novel chemical-nose sensing approach leveraging the difference in the dynamic metabolic variation during peptidoglycan metabolism among different species for rapid pathogen discrimination. Pathogens were first tethered with clickable handles through metabolic labeling at two different acidities (pH = 5 and 7) for 20 and 60 min, respectively, followed by click reaction with fluorescence up-conversion nanoparticles to generate a four-dimensional signal output. This discriminative multi-dimensional signal allowed eight types of model bacteria to be successfully classified within the training set into strains, genera, and Gram phenotypes. As the difference in signals of the four sensing channels reflects the difference in the amount/activity of enzymes involved in metabolic labeling, this strategy has good anti-interference capability, which enables precise pathogen identification within 2 h with 100% accuracy in spiked urinary samples and allows classification of unknown species out of the training set into the right phenotype. The robustness of this approach holds significant promise for its widespread application in pathogen identification and surveillance.

Abstract
There is considerable interest in using the metalloprotein cofactor vitamin B12 as a vehicle to deliver drugs and diagnostic agents into mammalian or bacterial cells by exploiting the B12-specific active uptake pathways. Conjugation of the cargo via the β-axial site or the 5'-OH of the ribose of the nucleotide are the most desirable sites, to maximise intracellular uptake. Herein we show the potential of conjugation at the beta-azido ligand of the vitamin B12 derivative azidocobalamin via a click-type azide-alkyne 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (Huisgen cycloaddition) reaction. Reacting azidocobalamin with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate at 40 °C results in essentially stoichiometric conversion of azidocobalamin to the corresponding triazolato complex. The stability of the complex as a function of pH and in the presence of cyanide were investigated. The complex is stable in pD 7.0 phosphate buffer for 24 h. The rate of beta-axial ligand substitution was found to be one order of magnitude slower for the triazolatocobalamin complex compared with azidocobalamin.

Abstract
Modern classes of antimicrobials are crucial because most drugs in development today are basically antibiotic derivatives. Even though a large number of metal-based compounds have been studied as antimicrobial agents, relatively few studies have examined the antimicrobial properties of Pd(II) and Pt(II) compounds. The [3+2] cycloaddition reactions of [M(N3)L]PF6 (M = Pd(II) and Pt(II); L = 4'-(2-pyridyl)-2,2':6',2″-terpyridine) with 4,4,4-trifluoro-2-butynoic acid ethyl ester gave the corresponding triazolate complexes. The reaction products were fully characterized with a variety of analytical and spectroscopic tools including X-ray crystallographic analysis. The crystal structure of [Pd(triazolatoCF3,COOCH2CH3)L]PF6 provided cut-off evidence that the kinetically formed N1-triazolato isomer favoured the isomerization to the thermodynamically stable N2-analogue. The experimental work was complemented with computational work to get an insight into the nature of the predominant triazolate isomer. The lysozyme binding affinity of the triazolate complexes was examined by mass spectrometry. An analysis of the lysozyme Pd(II) adducts suggests a coordinative covalent mode of binding via the loss of the triazolato ligand. The free ligand and its triazolate complexes displayed selective toxicity against Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans, while no cytotoxicity was observed against the normal human embryonic kidney cell line.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pretargeting approach consists of in vivo ligation between pre-injected antibodies and low-molecular-weight radiolabeled effectors. The advantage of the pretargeting approach is to improve a tumor-to-background ratio, but the disadvantage is to compromise tumor accumulation. In this study, we applied albumin binder (ALB) to the pretargeting approach to overcome low tumor accumulation. METHODS We synthesized two novel trifunctional effectors containing an ALB moiety, a chelator, and a different tetrazine and two corresponding effectors without an ALB moiety. Albumin-binding assays and stability assays were performed using 111In-labeled effectors. Measurements of reaction rate constant were conducted using 111In-labeled effectors and anti-HER2 antibody trastuzumab modified by trans-cyclooctene, which drives the click reaction with tetrazine. Biodistribution studies using HER2-expressing tumor-bearing mice were performed with or without the pretargeting approach. RESULTS In albumin-binding assays, ALB-containing effectors exhibited a marked binding to albumin. Two ALB-containing effectors showed the difference in the reactivity and the slight difference in the stability. In biodistribution studies without the pretargeting approach, two ALB-containing effectors showed different pharmacokinetics in blood retention. With the pretargeting approach, the tumor accumulation was improved by the introduction of ALB and the highest tumor accumulation was observed in using the ALB-containing effector with higher blood retention. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the application of ALB to the pretargeting approach is effective to improve tumor accumulation, and the structure of tetrazine influences the utility of ALB-containing effectors.

Abstract
Design and synthesis of higher order catenane are unexpectedly complex and involve precise cooperation among the precursors overcoming competing and opposing interactions. We achieved synthesis of [2], linear [3], radial [4] in a one-pot reaction by consecutive ring closing through click reactions. This synthesis gave three isolable products due to two, four, and six-click reactions between suitable coupling partners. Yields of the isolate templated-catenane decrease from lower to higher-ordered catenane (40 %, 12 %, and 4 %), probably due to the bite angle as well as the flexibility of the reacting partners. Removal of templating cobalt(III) ion leads to the formation of fully organic [2], linear [3], and radial [4]catenane. These synthesized catenanes were purified by column chromatography and characterized by 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, and ESI-MS spectroscopy. The synthesized catenanes have free binding sites suitable for post-functionalization and may be used for the synthesis of higher-ordered catenane.

Abstract
S-palmitoylation is a dynamic lipid-based protein post-translational modification facilitated by a family of protein acyltransferases (PATs) commonly known as DHHC-PATs or DHHCs. It is the only lipid modification that is reversible, and this very fact uniquely qualifies it for therapeutic interventions through the development of DHHC inhibitors. Herein, we report that 4″-alkyl ether lipophilic derivatives of EGCG can effectively inhibit protein S-palmitoylation in vitro. With the help of metabolic labeling followed by copper(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition Click reaction, we demonstrate that 4″-C14 EGCG and 4″-C16 EGCG markedly inhibited S-palmitoylation in various mammalian cells including HEK 293T, HeLa, and MCF-7 using both in gel fluorescence as well as confocal microscopy. Further, these EGCG derivatives were able to attenuate the S-palmitoylation to the basal level in DHHC3-overexpressed cells, suggesting that they are plausibly targeting DHHCs. Confocal microscopy data qualitatively reflected spatial and temporal distribution of S-palmitoylated proteins in different sub-cellular compartments and the inhibitory effects of 4″-C14 EGCG and 4″-C16 EGCG were clearly observed in the native cellular environment. Our findings were further substantiated by in silico analysis which revealed promising binding affinity and interactions of 4″-C14 EGCG and 4″-C16 EGCG with key amino acid residues present in the hydrophobic cleft of the DHHC20 enzyme. We also demonstrated the successful inhibition of S-palmitoylation of GAPDH by 4″-C16 EGCG. Taken together, our in vitro and in silico data strongly suggest that 4″-C14 EGCG and 4″-C16 EGCG can act as potent inhibitors for S-palmitoylation and can be employed as a complementary tool to investigate S-palmitoylation.

Abstract
A novel luminol derivative of N-(1,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophthalazin-5-yl)acrylamide (DTA) with excellent luminescence efficiency was designed and synthesized. Furthermore, a molecularly imprinted electrochemiluminescence sensor (MIECLS) was fabricated to detect ultratrace levels of human serum albumin (HSA) with high sensitivity and selectivity via a click reaction. The molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) were formed on the electrode surface via electropolymerization with HSA as a template molecule and catechol as a monomer. In the detection process, the -SH group of HSA on the electrode and the C = C bond of acryloyl group in DTA formed a new C-S bond via the Michael addition reaction to construct the MIECLS. The higher the concentration of HSA, the greater electrochemiluminescence (ECL) intensity measured. Taking advantage of MIECLS for ECL detection (scanning potential, - 0.4 to 0.5 V), there was a good linear relationship between ECL intensity and the logarithm of HSA concentration in the range 5 × 10-9 to 1 × 10-13 mg mL-1. The limit of detection (LOD) of the sensor was 1.05 × 10-15 mg mL-1. The sensor exhibited outstanding selectivity and stability. The sensor was applied to detect HSA in human serum with good recoveries of 97.7-105.2%. The concentration of HSA was detected by electrochemical method using the gating effect of MIP.

Abstract
Nitroaromatic compounds are common explosives and toxic pollutants, the selective and sensitive detection of which is of great importance. Herein, a facile and sensitive fluorescent sensor L was constructed for the sensing of TNP based on the hexahomotrioxacalix[3]arene skeleton. The fluorescence emission of L was drastically quenched in the presence of 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP), while other tested NACs, metal ions, and anions induced negligible changes. Under the optimized conditions, the spectroscopic studies revealed that L exhibited extremely sensitive and selective TNP recognition, with a detection limit of 9.17 × 10-7 M and a quenching constant of 2.44 × 104 M-1. The sensitivity of sensor L for TNP was attributed to the formation of a ground-state charge-transfer complex and an inner filter effect, which also contributed to the special selectivity of the sensor among the various nitroaromatic analogues. Compared with previous reports, L can serve as a highly efficient sensor for the sensing of TNP and can be employed over a wide pH range of 2 to 12. Sensor L was effectively used to quantify TNP in real water and soil samples. Additionally, fluorescent test strips were also developed for visual and rapid detection of TNP in both the solution and vapour phases.

Abstract
A novel luminol derivative, 4-[(1,4-dioxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophthalazin-5-yl)amino]-4-oxobut-2-enoic acid (ALD) with electrochemiluminescence intensity and stability characteristics similar to luminol, but higher solubility in near neutral solution, was designed and synthesized in this study. Using this derivative, a molecular imprinted electrochemiluminescence sensor (MIECLS) was prepared for the sensitive and selective determination of 2-amino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (AMT), a metabolite of bismerthiazol, thiediazole copper, thiazole zinc, and other pesticides. The ALD probes encapsulated in liposomes are immobilized on the molecularly imprinted film by light-triggered click reaction, and the concurrent release of multiple probes allows for highly sensitive detection. In the AMT concentration range of 1.00 × 10-18 - 5.00 × 10-13 mol/L, the relation between ECL response and log AMT concentration is linear. With a detection limit of 5.25 × 10-19 mol/L (about 4 - 6 molecules in 10 μL of the sample), the sensor allows for high sensitivity analysis of ultra-trace amounts of small organic compounds. In general, the ECL-based single-molecule detection technique proposed herein might be a promising alternative to fluorescence single-molecule detection.

Abstract
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major cause of serious lower respiratory tract infections in infants, children, and older persons. Currently, the only approved anti-viral chemotherapeutic drug for RSV treatment is ribavirin aerosol; however, its significant toxicity has led to restricted clinical use. In a previous study, we developed various benzimidazole derivatives against RSV. In this study, we synthesised 3-azide substituted furoxazine-fused benzimidazole derivatives by sulfonylation and azide substitution of the 3-hydroxyl group of the furoxazine-fused benzimidazole derivatives. Subsequently, a series of 3-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-substituted furoxazine-fused benzimidazole derivatives were synthesised using the classical click reaction. Biological evaluations of the target compounds indicated that compound 4a-2 had higher activity against RSV (EC50 = 12.17 μM) and lower cytotoxicity (CC50 = 390.64 μM). Compound 4a-2 exerted anti-viral effects against the RSV Long strain by inhibiting apoptosis and the elevation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inflammatory factors caused by viral infection in vitro. Additionally, the clinical symptoms of the virus-infected mice were markedly relieved, and the viral load in the lung tissues was dramatically decreased. The biosafety profile of compound 4a-2 was also favourable, showing no detectable adverse effects on any of the major organs in vivo. These findings underscore the potential of compound 4a-2 as a valuable therapeutic option for combating RSV infections while also laying the foundation for further research and development in the field.

Abstract
In this pared, an efficient method is introduced for the synthesis of 3-alkyl-2-(((4-(2-oxopropyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)alkyl)thio)-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives. These novel products have both 1,2,3-triazole and quinazolinone in their structures. For the synthesis of these products, a novel catalyst is designed, synthesized, and characterized by the immobilization of copper onto modified magnetic iron oxide. The catalyst (denoted: Cu@Py-Oxa@SPION) was characterized by several characterization techniques. In this regard, 16 3-alkyl-2-(((4-(2-oxopropyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)alkyl)thio)-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-one derivatives were synthesized in high isolated yields (77-86%). As an advantage, the catalyst is highly recoverable and its activity has not decreased after 7 sequential runs. The method is very efficient for the synthesis of the products in high isolated yields under mild reaction conditions in a green solvent. The scope of the method is broad and several examples were successfully synthesized using starting materials with different functional groups.

Abstract
We report the design and synthesis of eight photoswitchable phenylazopyridine- and phenylazopyrazole-based molecular systems as chelation-type light-controllable ligands. Besides the studies on fundamental photoisomerization behaviour, the ligands were also screened for light-tuneable properties such as photochromism, phase transition, and solubility, especially in the aqueous medium. This investigation demonstrates how the modulation of aqueous solubility can be achieved through photoisomerization and can further be utilized towards controlling the amount of catalytically active Cu(I) species in the aqueous conditions. Through this approach, light control over the catalytic activity was achieved for Cu-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) reactions, along with a partial recovery of the catalytically active species.

Abstract
Quantification of microRNAs (miRNAs) at the single-molecule level is of great significance for clinical diagnostics and biomedical research. The challenges lie in the limits to transforming single-molecule measurements into quantitative signals. To address these limits, here, we report a new approach called a Single Microbead-based Space-confined Digital Quantification (SMSDQ) to measure individual miRNA molecules by counting gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) light-scattering imaging. One miRNA target hybridizes with the alkynyl-modified capture DNA probe immobilized on a microbead (60 μm) and the azide-modified report DNA probe anchored on AuNP (50 nm), respectively. Through the click reaction between the alkynyl and azide group, a single microbead can covalently link the AuNPs in the confined space within the view of the microscope. By digitally counting the light-scattering spots of AuNPs, we demonstrated the proposed approach with single-molecule detection sensitivity and high specificity of single-base discrimination. Taking the advantages of ultrahigh sensitivity, specificity, and the digital detection manner, the approach is suitable for evaluating cell heterogeneity and small variations of miRNA expression and has been successfully applied to direct quantification of miRNAs in one-tenth single-cell lysates and serum samples without RNA-isolated and nucleic acid amplification steps.

Abstract
In this work, a novel series of pyridazine-triazole hybrid molecules were prepared and evaluated as inhibitors of rat intestinal α-glucosidase enzyme. Amongst all newly synthesized compounds, 10k showed good inhibition in the series with IC50 value of 1.7 µM which is 100 folds stronger than positive control, acarbose. The cytotoxicity revealed that this compound is not toxic against normal cell line, HDF. The docking studies showed that triazole ring plays an important role in the binding interactions with the active site. The insertion of compound 10k into the active pocket of α-glucosidase and formation of hydrogen bonds with Leu677 was observed from docking studies. The kinetic studies revealed that this compound has uncompetitive mode of inhibition against α-glucosidase enzyme.

Abstract
A thermal/pH-sensitive interpenetrating network (IPN) hydrogel was prepared facilely from starch and poly(α-l-lysine) through amino-anhydride and azide-alkyne double-click reactions in one pot. The synthesized polymers and hydrogels were systematically characterized using different analytical techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and rheometer. The preparation conditions of the IPN hydrogel were optimized via one-factor experiments. Experimental results indicated the IPN hydrogel possessed pH and temperature sensitivity. Effect of different parameters (pH, contact time, adsorbent dosage, initial concentration, ionic strength, and temperature) on adsorption behavior were investigated in monocomponent system with cationic methylene blue (MB) and anionic Eosin Y (EY) as model pollutants. The results indicated that the adsorption process of the IPN hydrogel for MB and EY followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. The adsorption data for MB and EY fitted well with the Langmuir isotherm model, indicating monolayer chemisorption. The good adsorption performance was due to various active functional groups (-COOH, -OH, -NH2, etc.) in the IPN hydrogel. The strategy described here opens up a new way for preparing IPN hydrogel. The as-prepared hydrogel exhibits potential application and bright prospects as an adsorbent in wastewater treatment.

Abstract
Proteolysis Targeting Chimera (PROTAC) is a type of bifunctional chimeric molecule that can directly degrade the binding proteins through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. PROTAC has shown great potential in overcoming drug resistance and targeting undruggable targets. However, there are still many shortcomings that need to be solved urgently, including worse membrane permeability and bioavailability induced by their large molecular weight. Herein, we used intracellular self-assembly strategy to construct tumor-specific PROTACs via small molecular precursors. We developed two types of precursors incorporated with azide and alkyne as biorthogonal groups, respectively. These small precursors with improved membrane permeability could react facilely with each other under the catalysis of copper ions with high concentration in tumor tissues, affording novel PROTACs. These novel intracellular self-assembled PROTACs could effectly induce degradation of VEGFR-2 and EphB4 in U87 cells. Meanwhile, they could also promote apoptosis and block cells in S phase. These tumor-specific intracellular self-assembled PROTACs exhibited high selectivity due to the high concentration of copper content in tumor tissue. Moreover, this new strategy could reduce the molecular weight of PROTACs, as well as improve the membrane permeability. These results will greatly expand the applications of bioorthogonal reaction in discovery of novel PROTACs.

Abstract
New phthalazone tethered 1,2,3-triazole derivatives 12-21 were synthesized utilizing the Cu(I)-catalyzed click reactions of alkyne-functionalized phthalazone 1 with functionalized azides 2-11. The new phthalazone-1,2,3-triazoles structures 12-21 were confirmed by different spectroscopic tools, like IR; 1H, 13C, 2D HMBC and 2D ROESY NMR; EI MS, and elemental analysis. The antiproliferative efficacy of the molecular hybrids 12-21 against four cancer cell lines was evaluated, including colorectal cancer, hepatoblastoma, prostate cancer, breast adenocarcinoma, and the normal cell line WI38. The antiproliferative assessment of derivatives 12-21 showed potent activity of compounds 16, 18, and 21 compared to the anticancer drug doxorubicin. Compound 16 showed selectivity (SI) towardthe tested cell lines ranging from 3.35 to 8.84 when compared to Dox., that showed SI ranged from 0.75 to 1.61. Derivatives 16, 18 and 21 were assessed towards VEGFR-2 inhibitory activity and result in that derivative 16 showed the potent activity (IC50 = 0.123 µM) in comparison with sorafenib (IC50 = 0.116 µM). Compound 16 caused an interference with the cell cycle distribution of MCF7 and increased the percentage of cells in S phase by 1.37-fold. In silico molecular docking of the effective derivatives 16, 18, and 21 against vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) confirmed the formation of stable protein-ligand interactions within the pocket.

Abstract
Despite possessing a wide spectrum of biological activities, molecular targets of EGCG remain elusive and as a result, its precise mode of action is still unknown. Herein, we have developed a novel cell-permeable and Click-able bioorthogonal probe for EGCG, YnEGCG for in situ detection and identification of its interacting proteins. The strategic structural modification on YnEGCG allowed it to retain innate biological activities of EGCG (IC50 59.52 ± 1.14 μM and 9.07 ± 0.01 μM for cell viability and radical scavenging activity, respectively). Chemoproteomics profiling identified 160 direct EGCG targets, with H:L ratio ≥ 1.10 from the list of 207 proteins, including multiple new proteins that were previously unknown. The targets were broadly distributed in various subcellular compartments suggesting a polypharmacological mode of action of EGCG. GO analysis revealed that the primary targets belonged to the enzymes that regulate key metabolic processes including glycolysis and energy homeostasis, also the cytoplasm (36 %) and mitochondria (15.6 %) contain the majority of EGCG targets. Further, we validated that EGCG interactome was closely associated with apoptosis indicating its role in inducing toxicity in cancer cells. For the first time, this in situ chemoproteomics approach could identify a direct and specific EGCG interactome under physiological conditions in an unbiased manner.

Abstract
Hemin-loaded graphene oxide with excellent peroxidase-like activity shows great potential for biosensing applications. However, the detection sensitivity of biosensors based on such catalytic methods is limited by the lack of a signal amplification technique. In this work, we developed a simple and rapid signal amplification method based on streamlined click reactions enabling one-step assembly of multilayer graphene oxide nanosheets on magnetic beads to immobilize large amounts of hemin serving as active catalysts, which allowed for the highly sensitive detection of various biological targets, including copper ions, DNA sequences and proteins. With this method, we achieved detection limits down to 13.74 nM, 4.89 pM and 7.77 pg/mL for Cu2+, Ebola virus DNA sequences, and carcinoembryonic antigen, respectively. The designed platform holds great promise in the self-assembly of graphene-based nanozymes and sensitive colorimetric biosensing in a wider range of applications.

Abstract
Biomass valorization is essential, particularly in emerging countries. Here, hydrochar from arabica coffee straw was functionalized with a triazole group (HD-TRz) for use as a support of palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs-HD-TRz) applied in the Ullmann coupling reaction for the first time. It provided remarkably excellent selectivities, conversions at a temperature as low as 45 °C and catalyst recyclability, surpassing previous literature performances. Hydrochar was obtained by one-pot reaction via hydrothermal synthesis, using NaOH solution as activating agent and functionalized with a 1,3-triazole group by CuAAC "click" reaction. The PdNPs were prepared via reduction of hydrochar-bound Pd(II) using NaBH4. Hydrochar functionalization was monitored by infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) allowed to observe carbon and palladium planes in hydrochar and PdNPs HD-TRz structures. The PdNPs presented a spherical shape with 2.1 ± 0.1 nm size, homogeneously distributed in the carbon coverslips. The HD-TRz-supported PdNPs were used as a catalyst in the Ullmann reaction of iodobenzene, using ethanol as solvent with 100% of conversion and 91% selectivity at 45 °C. The material was reused, presenting 100% of conversion and selectivities of 92, 84 and 73% for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd cycle, respectively. The scope of the reaction was expanded to other molecules showing the potential of this and other triazole-hydrochar-supported nanocatalysts.

Abstract
In this study, it was reported that twelve nucleoside analogues were synthesized by click reactions. The reactions were carried out between the azide derivatives of D-glucopyranose, D-galactopyranose, D-ribofuranose and 2-propargylamino pyrimidine derivatives (5 and 7) that are synthesized via a different route for the first time. In the first step, N-propargyl guanidine was obtained with the reaction of 1H-pyrazole-1-carboxamidine hydrochloride and propargyl amine, then condensation of N-propargyl guanidine and β-diketone (4 and 6) resulted in 2-propargylamino pyrimidines (5 and 7) for the first time in good yields (85%). Finally, click reactions were performed with azidosugars (8a-8f) and 2-propargylamino pyrimidine derivatives and produced twelve new nucleoside analogues in good yields. (9a-9f, 10a-10f, 65-73% yields). The chemical structures of the new derivatives were elucidated spectroscopic techniques, such as FT-IR, 1H NMR, 19F NMR, 13C NMR and TOF-ESI-MS.

Abstract
The voltage-gated sodium (Nav) channel is one of most important targets for treatment of epilepsy, and rufinamide is an approved third-generation anti-seizure drug as Nav1.1 channel blocker. Herein, by triazenylation of rufinamide, we reported the triazenyl triazoles as new Nav1.1 channel blocker for treatment of epilepsy. Through the electrophysiological activity assay, compound 6a and 6e were found to modulate the inactivation voltage of Nav 1.1 channel with shift of -10.07 mv and -11.28 mV, respectively. In the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) mouse model, 6a and 6e reduced the seizure level, prolonged seizure latency and improved the survival rate of epileptic mice at an intragastric administration of 50 mg/kg dosage. In addition, 6a also exhibited promising effectiveness in the maximal electroshock (MES) mouse model and possessed moderate pharmacokinetic profiles. These results demonstrated that 6a was a novel Nav1.1 channel blocker for treatment of epilepsy.

Abstract
Naturally occurring N-glycans display much diversity in modifications, linkages, and peripheral presentation of the oligosaccharide chain. Despite continued advancements in oligosaccharide synthesis, synthetic access to these natural glycans remains challenging. Biologically relevant complex N-glycan mimetics with various natural and unnatural modifications are an alternate way for investigating glycan-protein interactions. Further supporting this pattern, we report here a new class of sialylated bi- and triantennary pseudo mannose N-glycans reproducing orientation of the underlying glycan chain and branching patterns and replacing the two inner mannopyranosyl units with 1,2,3-triazole rings. Such mimetics are straightforwardly generated by implementing multiple intermolecular Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition between chemoenzymatically synthesized azido sialosides and rationally designed C-3 and C-6 di-O- or C-2, C-3, and C-6 tri-O-alkynylated mannoside. Human recombinant Siglec-7-Fc fusion protein recognizes almost all sialylated pseudo mannose N-glycans in the microarray. However, a differential Sia-binding pattern was also observed. Given the library size, comparison of pairwise mannose N-glycan combinations showed that biantennary linear α(2,3)α(2,8)- and α(2,6)α(2,8)- or branched α(2,3)α(2,6)-, and triantennary branched α(2,3)α(2,6)-sialyl pseudo N-glycans possess similar binding capabilities and affinity to recombinant Siglec-7-Fc. While the full range of topological mannose arms remain elusive, the bi- and triantennary mimics are simpler structures for interrogating Siglec interactions.

Abstract
Peptide ligand modified nanoparticles can simply prepared by post-insertion method to mix pre-formed nanoparticles with peptide-lipid conjugates in an aqueous solution at an optimal temperature. Therefore, water dispersibility of peptide-lipid conjugates is a very important factor for implementing the post-insertion method. We proposed that highly water dispersible peptide-lipid conjugates can be easily synthesized by separately designing novel adapter lipids with different water dispersibility and reacting them with ligands in a highly efficient manner. Adapter lipids have three critical roles; as spacers of ligand-conjugated lipids for efficient ligand presentation, as structures that form discrete molecular weight distributions, and as providing water dispersibility. In this study, we developed a novel adapter-lipid derivative that enables a variety of cyclic peptide modifications using the click reaction. The integrin αvβ3-targeted cyclic RGDfK (cRGD) peptide was selected as the cyclic peptide ligand. We designed a novel alkyne-tagged lipid with a discrete peptide spacer and bound the cRGD peptide using a click reaction to synthesize a cRGD-conjugated lipid with good water dispersibility for the preparation of cRGD-modified PEGylated liposomes using the post-insertion method. We also revealed that cRGD-modified PEGylated liposomes are efficiently associated with integrin αvβ3-expressing murine colon carcinoma (Colon-26) cells in a modification amount- and peptide sequence-dependent manner, showing high cytotoxicity upon loading with doxorubicin. This novel adapter lipid derivative can be used to synthesize various cyclic peptides by click reactions and will provide useful insights for the future development of cyclic peptide-modified PEGylated liposomes.

Abstract
Click synthesis is a class of biocompatible small molecule reactions commonly used in bioconjugation. This research presents a recyclable environmentally-friendly catalyst for 1,2,3-triazoles. To this end, we immobilized poly sulfonamide-thiazole (PST), a new group of sulfonamides, on the surface of layered double hydroxides/chitosan (LDH@CS). Afterward, it was decorated using copper iodide nanoparticles (CuI NPs). LDH@CS@PST/Cu was characterized various techniques, including HNMR, 13CNMR, FE-SEM, FT-IR, XRD, EDX, ICP-OES, and TGA/DTA. Overall, the results revealed that LDH@CS@PST/Cu is a promising green efficient for the domino reaction of phenacyl bromides with phenylacetylene and sodium azide.

Abstract
Drug-eluting stents (DESs) placement remarkably reduces the over-proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and thus neointimal hyperplasia. However, the pharmacological agent also slows down the re-endothelization, delays injury vascular healing and increases the risk of in-stent restenosis (ISR). Here, inspired by mussel foot proteins (Mfps), a mimicking endothelium functional stent coating was efficiently fabricated by thiol-ene "click" reaction, consisting of catechol grafted chitosan (CS-C), zinc sulfate, and Arg-Glu-Asp-Val (REDV) peptide. The mimicking endothelium coating could continuously catalyze endogenous nitric oxide (NO) gas and maintain the bioactivity of REDV peptide. Compared with bare stents, the mimicking coatings significantly inhibited the acute thrombosis for the first 1-week, accelerated re-endothelization and decreased in-stent restenosis for 1- and 3-month after implantation. In addition, the synergistic effect of NO and REDV peptide also regulated inflammation response and promoted the expression of muscle fiber.

Abstract
Herein, we obtained porous hollow carboxyl-polysulfone (PH-CPSF) microspheres through non-solvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) method and simple modification, used as highly efficient adsorbents for removing cationic dyes from sewage. The resulting PH-CPSF microspheres possess a hollow core and sponge-like shell structure, with high surface area, durable chemical inertness and structural stability. The as-synthesized PH-CPSF microspheres deliver a desirable adsorption effect after deprotonation treatment, with an adsorption capacity reaching up to 154.5 mg g-1 at 25 °C (pH = 7) of methylene blue (MB). The inter-molecular interactions between MB and the surface of the PH-CPSF, including π-π interaction, hydrogen bonding, strong charge attraction and weak charge attraction endow the adsorption ability of the PH-CPSF. The pseudo-second-order kinetic model pronounces in the adsorption behavior, and the adsorption equilibrium data is fitted to the Langmuir model. Moreover, PH-CPSF microspheres can also be used as adsorption fillers for large-scale water purification, and a removal rate of 94.0% for MB can be achieved under a flow rate of 8000 L m-3 h-1. The reusability of 95.3% removal effect for PH-CPSF microspheres after 20 consecutive cycles can be attained by a simple regeneration treatment. The adsorption efficiency of the PH-CPSF microspheres was evaluated by variety of cationic and anionic dyes, with high adsorption capacity toward cationic dyes (100%) and less than 10% toward anionic dyes. These results manifest that PH-CPSF microspheres are a potential adsorbent with long-term purification capabilities, which are expected to be used in small and large-scale sewage treatment.

Abstract
Novel poly(ethylvinylbenzene-divinylbenzene) (EVB-DVB) agglomerated with ultrasmall carbonaceous spheres (UCSs) anion-exchange packings for ion chromatography (IC) were constructed. Hydrophilic UCSs with mean sizes of 62-98 nm were synthesized in quantity by the polydiallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride aided hydrothermal carbonization of fructose. The green strategy based on the thiol-ene click reaction with cysteamine in aqueous system was first designed for the hyperbranched polyquaternary amine (HPA) grafting of UCSs with negligible damage on their monodispersity. The HPA modified UCSs were evenly distributed on sulfonated EVB-DVB substrate to form one uniform layer of functional nanospheres without observable coagulum. Seven typical anions (F-, Cl-, NO2-, Br-, NO3-, SO42- and PO43-) were baseline separated on constructed packing in 5 min with high efficiencies in the range of 44,800-71,100 plates m - 1. The rapid separation of polarizable anions, small organic acids and saccharides could be also accomplished under isocratic elution with competitive peak symmetry and efficiency. Good reproducibility was demonstrated by consecutive injection. Thiosulfate in water reducer was further detected on prepared packing in 4 min with detection limit of 0.04 mg L - 1 (S/N = 3) and good repeatability.

Abstract
This work demonstrated an ultrasensitive and simple microfluidic immunosensor for point-of-care test of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) based on the stir bar enrichment and DNAzyme-assisted click reaction. Initially, S. aureus was enriched by the 4-mercaptophenylboronic acid-functionalized stir bar. The yolk antibody (immunoglobulin Y) and copper-labeled polydopamine nanoparticles were then specifically conjugated with the captured target. The Cu(II) was released under acidic conditions and effectively catalyzed the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) between the alkyne group-labeled DNAzyme and the streptavidin-biotin-azido with the assistance of DNAzyme. Finally, the DNAzyme-streptavidin complexes were detected by microfluidic chips to quantify S. aureus. Under optimum conditions, this immunosensor showed good detection performances toward S. aureus within 10 to 2.5 × 104 CFU/mL with a limit of detection of 3 CFU/mL. Moreover, the satisfying detection results of real samples of animal origin also implied that this immunosensor owned great potential in practical applications.

Abstract
Efficient determination of aldehydes by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) is hampered mainly by the low mass and unstable nature of analytes. In the present work, we propose a combined strategy of a reactive metal-organic framework (MOF) matrix for the derivatization and detection of aldehydes. A novel reactive MOF matrix (NH2NH-MOF) was synthesized in two steps. First, NR3+-MOF was synthesized via Cu2+ and the quaternary amine ligand 4,4'-bipyridinium, 1,1″-(1,2-ethanediyl)bis-, dibromide (PyEtBr). Then, -NHNH2 was introduced to NR3+-MOF through electrostatic adsorption between the -NR3+ and -HSO3- of 4-hydrazinylbenzenesulfonic acid to synthesize NH2NH-MOF. The acid-base chemistry of NH2NH-MOF led to uniform cocrystallization of the aldehyde-matrix mixtures and helped to achieve the detection of low-weight aldehydes with good relative standard deviations (RSDs = 0.07-12.35%). It was confirmed that this strategy can accurately quantify formaldehyde, valeraldehyde, and benzaldehyde with good linearity (r > 0.97). Furthermore, this strategy was applied to quantitatively detect benzaldehyde in wastewater, thus showing potential applications in environmental pollutant detection.

Abstract
Inspired from the ancient China philosophy of "coupling hardness with softness", we attempted the combination of rigid cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) and elastic rubbers to solve the limitations of structural brittleness and water sensitivity of CNC-based aerogels. Three rubber chains with the different chemical structures (silicon rubber, 1,2-polybutadiene, styreneic block copolymer) were covalently bonded on the CNC porous skeleton based on thiol-ene click chemistry, to fabricate the CNC/rubber composite aerogels. With the introduction of moderate loading levels of rubber, the composites aerogels exhibited low density and shrinkage, high porosity and specific surface area and improved mechanical performance. Furthermore, the presence of rubber components completely changed the hydrophilic nature of cellulose skeleton as the hydrophobic aerogels, contributing the superior solvents resistance and self-cleaning property. With their advantages on mechanical stability, heat insulation and hydrophobicity, the fabricated aerogels in this study exhibited the high added values in various potential applications.

Abstract
A novel approach for trace detection of fipronil with a molecularly imprinted electrochemiluminescence sensor (MIECLS) is proposed. The sensitivity is significantly improved via signal amplification of the enzymatic reaction of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) released from encapsulated liposomes which linked onto the template molecules after rebinding. The molecularly imprinted polymer membrane was prepared through the electropolymerization of monomers with fipronil as a template. After the elution of the template molecules, the analyte fipronil was reabsorbed into the cavities. HRP-encapsulated liposomes were linked to the target molecules by light-triggered click reaction. The higher the concentration of the target was, the more HRP-encapsulated liposomes were present on the molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) sensor. Then, HRP was liberated from liposomes, and the catalytic degradation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) by HRP occurs, which changed the electrochemiluminescence intensity of luminol significantly. The change of the ∆ECL intensity was linearly proportional to the logarithm of the fipronil concentration ranging from 1.00 × 10-14 to 1.00 × 10-9 mol/L, and the detection limit was 7.77 × 10-16 mol/L. The recoveries obtained ranged from 95.7 to 105.8% with RSD < 5%. The sensitivity of the detection was significantly improved, and the analysis process was simplified in that the incubation step required in the conventional method was avoided. The sensor proposed provides a feasible platform for ultra-trace amount determination.

Abstract
A dual-signaling electrochemical ratio metric strategy was developed for detection microRNA-18a based on the duplex-specific nuclease-assisted target recycling and electrochemical atom transfer radical polymerization signal amplification. In the presence of target microRNA, RNA/DNA duplexes are formed, which become the substrate of the duplex-specific nuclease-assisted target recycling. Hence only the DNA strand is cleaved by duplex-specific nuclease enzyme, resulting in the throw away of methylene blue (MB) from the electrode (signal off) accompanied by releasing of target microRNA, which can be recycled in the next hybridization. The remaining piece of capture DNAs on the electrode surface hybridize with the Azide labeled-signal DNAs. "Click reactions" were carried out between 3-Butynyl-2-bromoisobutyrate and Azide to initiate the electrochemical atom transfer radical polymerization reaction. This process could bring a great number of ferrocenylmethyl methacrylate (FMMA) on the surface of electrode (signal on). The IFMMA/IMB value was proportionate to the microRNA-18a concentration and measured by square wave voltammetry. The promising potential of the proposed biosensor in clinical analyses was exhibited by its remarkable features such as strong performance, high specificity, agreeable storage stability, and notable selectivity in real sample evaluation with no pretreatment or amplification. Finally, our biosensing method offers such an application to be used for the early clinical diagnosis of Pancreatic Cancer.

Abstract
Fluorescent analogues of the gypsy moth sex pheromone (+)-disparlure (1) and its enantiomer (-)-disparlure (ent-1) were designed, synthesized, and characterized. The fluorescently labelled analogues 6-FAM (+)-disparlure and 1a 6-FAM (-)-disparlure ent-1a were prepared by copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition of disparlure alkyne and 6-FAM azide. These fluorescent disparlure analogues 1a and ent-1a were used to measure disparlure binding to two pheromone-binding proteins from the gypsy moth, LdisPBP1 and LdisPBP2. The fluorescence binding assay showed that LdisPBP1 has a stronger affinity for 6-FAM (-)-disparlure ent-1a, whereas LdisPBP2 has a stronger affinity for 6-FAM (+)-disparlure 1a, consistent with findings from previous studies with disparlure enantiomers. The 6-FAM disparlure enantiomers appeared to be much stronger ligands for LdisPBPs, with binding constants (Kd) in the nanomolar range, compared to the fluorescent reporter 1-NPN (which had Kd values in the micromolar range). Fluorescence competitive binding assays were used to determine the displacement constant (Ki) for the disparlure enantiomers in competition with fluorescent disparlure analogues binding to LdisPBP1 and LdisPBP2. The Ki data show that disparlure enantiomers can effectively displace the fluorescent disparlure from the binding pocket of LdisPBPs and, therefore, occupy the same binding site.

Abstract
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are versatile tools to deliver various molecules into different cell types. The majority of CPPs are usually represented by linear structures, but numerous recent studies demonstrated cyclization to be an effective strategy leading to favorable biological activities. Here we describe two different methods for the side chain and backbone cyclization of CPPs . Furthermore, we highlight straightforward procedures for the covalent coupling of fluorophores or cytotoxic payloads.

Abstract
The need to overcome ever-increasing cases of antifungal resistance and circumvent side effects and drug interactions related to currently available drugs has impelled the demand to expedite the drug discovery and the development of novel antifungals. 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazole has gained tremendous interest in the last two decades mainly because of its ease of synthesis via copper( I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and its broad spectrum of chemotherapeutic potential. 1,2,3-Triazole is an excellent pharmacophore that has been used as a bioisostere for obtaining libraries of new medicinally important scaffolds. The present review focuses on the recent advances (2016-2021) in 1,2,3-triazole derivatives obtained by CuAAC as potential antifungal agents that may facilitate the triazole-based antifungal development process.

[Cu(CPA)(BDC)]n (CPA = 4-(Chloro-phenyl)-pyridin-4-ylmethylene-amine; BDC = 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) has been synthesized and structurally characterized by single crystal X-Ray diffraction measurement. The structural studies establish the copper (II) containing 2D sheet with (4,4) square grid structure. The square grid lengths are 10.775 and 10.769 Å. Thermal stability is assessed by TGA, and subsequent PXRD data establish the crystallinity. The surface morphology is evaluated by FE-SEM. The N2 adsorption-desorption analysis demonstrates the mesoporous feature (∼6.95 nm) of the Cu-MOF. This porous grid serves as heterogeneous green catalyst with superficial recyclability and thermal stability and facilitates organic transformations efficiently such as, Click and Knoevenagel reactions in the aqueous methanolic medium.

Abstract
An amino group at side chain of lysine residue can be targeted for protein modification because of the convenience for covalent bond formation. We have achieved an efficient protein modification by utilizing amine-clickable 6π-azaelectrocyclization, termed RIKEN click reaction recently, which enabled direct click labeling of protein without any introduction of specific functional groups such as alkynes and azides. On the basis of the RIKEN click reaction, we established the double click labeling method. The double click methods composed of copper-free strain-promoted [3 + 2] cyclization or tetrazine ligation and RIKEN click reaction were developed. The double click method realized highly effective proteins including radiolabeling of bioactive peptides and anti-tumor antibodies. In this personal review, the development of double click probes, practical radiolabeling of biological active molecules such as cyclic RGDyK peptides, proteins, and antibodies with α-emission or β-emission radionuclides, and their applications for PET imaging and α-emission cancer treatment are summarized.

Also, a novel method involving the Cu NPs supported on the SiO2 nanocatalyst as a heterogeneous novel catalyst for the “one-pot” three-component A3-coupling of aldehyde, amine, and alkynes and “one-pot” click reaction between alkyne, benzyl halide, and sodium azide in the water at room temperature was developed. Significant advantageous such as enhanced catalytic activity with efficient recycling for the one-pot synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted triazoles and propargyl amine derivatives and in green condition were observed. Also, after five successive reactions, the catalytic activity of recycled Cu/SiO2-Pr-NH-Benz remained high without significant loss in its intrinsic activity.

Abstract
A series of novel glycosyl-1,2,3-1H-triazolyl methyl benzamide analogues were synthesized by the unambiguous strategy and evaluated for α-glucosidase inhibitory activity. Glycosyl benzamide exhibited a dose-dependent inhibition of α-glucosidase activity. The In-vitro α-glucosidase inhibition activity results indicated that all the synthesized triazolyl methyl benzamide compounds (IC50 values ranging from 25.3 ± 0.8 to 118.5 ± 5.3 μM) exhibited more inhibitory activity in comparison with the standard drug acarbose (IC50 = 750.0 ± 12.5 μM). Among all, the 3 deacetylated glycosyl methyl benzamide derivatives (4c, 4d and 4f) showed promising α-glucosidase enzyme inhibitory activities with IC50 value 25.3 ± 0.8, 26.1 ± 1.5 and 30.6 ± 2.1 respectively. Furthermore, these compounds were subjected to molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation studies. The molecular docking studies were performed between (PDB ID: 3A4A) target protein and these synthesized molecules. The compounds displayed good docking energies in the range of -7.5 to -7.8 Kcal/mol. This work could be used as an initial approach in identifying potential novel molecules with the promising activity of type-2 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
In this work, a novel series of hydrazineylideneindolinone linked to phenoxymethyl-1,2,3-triazole derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anti-α-glucosidase activity due to an urgent need to develop effective anti-diabetic agents. Among tested 15 compounds, 8 derivatives (9a, 9b, 9c, 9d, 9e, 9f, 9h, and 9o) demonstrated superior potency compared to that of positive control, acarbose. Particularly, compound 9d possessed the best anti-α-glucosidase activity with around a 46-fold improvement in the inhibitory activity. Additionally, 9d showed a competitive type of inhibition in the kinetic study and the molecular docking study demonstrated that it well occupied the binding pocket of the catalytic center through desired interactions with residues, correlating to the experimental results.

Abstract
In this study, we reported the discovery of pyridazine based 1,2,3-triazole derivatives as inhibitors of α-glucosidase. All target compounds exhibited significant inhibitory activities against yeast and rat α-glucosidase enzymes compared to positive control, acarbose. The most potent compound 6j, ethyl 3-(2-(1-(4-nitrobenzyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)ethyl)-5,6-diphenylpyridazine-4-carboxylate exhibited IC50 values of 58, and 73 µM. Docking studies indicated the responsibility of hydrophobic and hydrogen bonding interactions in the ligand-enzyme complex stability. The in-vitro safety against the normal cell line was observed by toxicity evaluation of the selected compounds.

Abstract
An efficient procedure for the synthesis of novel thiazolidinone triazoles through 32 cycloaddition reactions in the presence of copper(I) species was described, and the molecular mechanism of this 32CA was investigated computationally. Different possible pathways for CA process have been studied to achieve this goal, including one-step pathways for both regioisomers 1,4- and 1,5-triazoles (uncatalyzed, mono-copper, di-copper) and also mono- and di-copper stepwise pathways for 1,4-disubstituted triazole. It was exhibited that the most convenient route in terms of energy barriers includes two copper ions. Based on the calculation, the reaction follows a di-copper stepwise mechanism involving the formation of a six-membered ring and then undergoes a ring contraction to a five-membered ring. The regiochemistry of the reaction was investigated based on local and global reactivity indices of reactants, the transition state stabilities calculation. The electron reorganization along the uncatalyzed one-step mechanism has been investigated by the ELF topological analysis of the bonding changes along with the CA reaction.

Abstract
As a versatile reaction for bioconjugation, Cu(I)-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) has enormous potential in the synthesis of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs). In order to optimize CuAAC-based ADC synthesis, we characterized kinetically different formulation processes by mimicking ADC synthesis using small molecules and subsequently revealed unique kinetic behaviors of different combinations of alkyne and azide conditions. Our results indicate that under ADC synthesis conditions, for an alkyne-containing drug, its concentration has minimal impact on the reaction rate when an antibody has a non-metal-chelating azide but is proportional to concentration when an antibody contains a metal-chelating azide; however, for an alkyne-containing antibody, the ADC synthesis rate is proportional to the concentration of a drug with a non-metal-chelating azide but displays almost no dependence on drug concentration with a metal-chelating azide. Based on our results, we designed and tested an optimal "click" formulation strategy that allowed rapid and cost-effective synthesis of a new ADC.

Abstract
The continuous demand of medicinally important scaffolds has prompted the synthetic chemists to identify simple and efficient routes for their synthesis. 1H-1,2,3-triazole, obtained by highly versatile, efficacious and selective "Click Reaction" has become a synthetic/medicinal chemist's favorite not only because of its ability to mimic different functional groups but also due to enhancement in the targeted biological activities. Triazole ring has also been shown to play a critical role in biomolecular mimetics, fragment-based drug design, and bioorthogonal methodologies. In addition, the availability of triazole containing drugs such as fluconazole, furacyclin, etizolam, voriconazole, triozolam etc. in market has underscored the potential of this biologically enriched core in expediting development of new scaffolds. The present review, therefore, is an attempt to highlight the recent synthetic/biological advancements in triazole derivatives that could facilitate the in-depth understanding of its role in the drug discovery process.

Abstract
2,3,9,10,16,17,23,24-Octakis (4-methyl-2,6-bis((prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)methyl)phenoxy) phthalocyaninato zinc(II) (Pc) bearing sixteen terminal ethynyl groups was synthesized and attached to SWCNT (Single-walled carbon nanotube) covalently to obtain three dimensional porous hybrid material (SWCNT-Pc 3D) and its copper complex (Cu-SWCNT-Pc 3D). The structural characterization and electrochemical sensor features of the Cu-SWCNT-Pc hybrid towards to physostigmine pesticide were performed. A fast, direct and suitable determination method for physostigmine detection was offered. The designed sensor, Cu-SWCNT-Pc 3D/GCE (glassy carbon electrode) shows sensitivity ca 1.8, 4.3 and 2.8 times more than that of SWCNT/GCE, SWCNT-Pc-noncovalent/GCE and SWCNT-Pc 3D/GCE in terms of peak heights while bare and Pc/GCE had almost no voltammetric response to 2 μM physostigmine in PBS at a pH of 7.0. The limit of detection and quantification of physostigmine determination with Cu-SWCNT-Pc 3D/GCE were found to be 53 and 177 nM in the range of 0.1-4.8 μM, respectively. This study demonstrated that the modification of the GCE with Cu-SWCNT-Pc 3D as an electrochemical sensor was acted as catalytic role toward physostigmine presence of other interfering pesticides as high sensitivity and selectivity. The electrochemical determination of physostigmine in real samples was performed under the optimized conditions, also accuracy of the electrochemical determination method was evaluated with HPLC as a standard determination method.

Abstract
A novel carboxyl-functionalized hybrid monolithic column was developed based on "thiol-ene" click reaction via "one-pot" by choosing mercaptosuccinic acid, γ-methyl methacrylate trimethoxysilane and tetramethoxysilane as reaction monomers. The design of the hybrid monolithic column was assisted by the comparison in computational simulation with existing carboxyl-functionalized materials. The characterization by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption measurement, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis showed that the carboxyl-functionalized material has the advantages of good permeability and high mechanical strength. Then, we used the prepared carboxyl-hybrid monolith column as solid phase microextraction adsorbent for separation of trace inorganic chromium species. Under pH 4.5, the hybrid monolith column can selectively enrich Cr(III) without adsorbing Cr(VI) and afterwards, Cr(III) can be eluted by 1.0 mol L-1 HCl. The chromium speciation separation method based on carboxyl-hybrid monolith column followed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry possessed the merits of facile preparation, low cost, simple and mild extraction condition, and sensitive detection, which has been successfully applied to the separation, enrichment and detection of inorganic chromium in environmental waters.

Abstract
The synthesis and characteristics of functional polyesters with a potential anticancer activity have been described, followed by a post-modification process of biologically active polymers. First, biodegradable functional polysuccinates possessing pendant allyl groups, that are susceptible to thiol-ene reaction, were obtained by polyaddition of succinic anhydride and allyl glycidyl ether. The functionality of such polyesters was regulated by replacing a part of unsaturated glycidyl ether with saturated ones. Polymers containing 20-100% mers with allyl groups were reacted with N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC). The use of simple click reaction allowed obtaining polyesters containing different amounts of N-acetyl-cysteine in side chains. The thus obtained polymers with a molecular weight of several thousand are characterized by solubility in methanol as opposed to their initial precursors. Modified polyesters show no toxicity to normal human keratinocytes (HaCaT) cells, similar to the NAC in normal human fibroblasts (NHDF), whereas the anticancer activities were observed against squamous carcinoma (SCC-25), and melanoma (Me45) cells. A standard colorimetric assay (MTS), to assessing cells viability and cytotoxicity of tested compounds, was performed against NHDF for NAC, HaCaT, SCC-25, and Me45 cells, within 24-144 h long-term expositions. Neither contact with NAC alone, and tested materials, nor long incubation decreased normal cell viability or induced inflammation. That reassumed the potential of anticancer activities of tested materials, with the tendency to visible selectivity against cancer cell lines in vitro, confirmed with live microscopic imaging against the Me45 cell line.
