Lipidated cyclopropenes serve as useful bioorthogonal reagents for imaging cell membranes due to the cyclopropene's small size and ability to ligate with pro-fluorescent tetrazines. Previously, the lipidation of cyclopropenes required modification at …
Cyclic enamines are important synthons for many synthetic and pharmacological targets. Here, we report an inexpensive, catalyst-free, multigram-scale synthesis for cyclic enamines with exocyclic double bonds and four- to seven-membered rings. This …
Synthesis of spirocyclic systems, cyclic enamines, and their conjugation to lipids
