Tracking the target: To identify a protein that binds directly to the HIF‐1α inhibitorLW6, a series of new chemicalprobes were synthesized with a clickable tag and/or a photoactivatable moiety. LW6 was found to be localized to the mitochondria (see picture) and MDH2 was identified as a targetprotein of LW6. These results indicate that the HIF‐1α inhibitory activity of LW6 is a consequence of MDH2

A reaction of 2-iodophenol and 2-iodoanisole with 1-adamantanol in trifluoroacetic acid gives the corresponding 4-(1-adamantyl) derivatives. Similar adamantylation of 4-iodophenol and 4-iodoanisole is accompanied by migration of the iodine atom from para- to ortho-position, giving 4,6-di(1-adamantyl)-2-iodophenol and 4-(1-adamantyl)-2-iodoanisole, respectively, as the reaction products.
