A fluorescent turn-on probe for H2S was exploited based on a H2S-induced substitution-cyclization cascade reaction towards the bis-electrophilic centers of a new H2S trap group 2-(iodomethyl)benzoate.

Provided are methods for the meta-selective C—H arylations of arene alcohol-based substrates. The methods combine the transient norbornene strategy with a quinoline-based acetal scaffold to achieve the formation of biaryl compounds. These processes establish a foundation for catalytic polyfunctionalization of alcohol-based compounds. The method comprises attaching a heterocyclic hemiacetal scaffold to an aromatic alcohol or a substituted aromatic alcohol; reacting the aromatic or substituted aromatic alcohol having the heterocyclic hemiacetal scaffold attached with an alkyl or aryl iodide in a reaction mix comprising a palladium catalyst, a silver salt, and carboxymethyl norbornene to generate a meta-arylated arene conjugated to the heterocyclic hemiacetal scaffold; and then cleaving the heterocyclic hemiacetal scaffold from the meta-arylated arene alcohol.

A coumarin-based fluorescent probe for selective detection of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is presented. This ‘off–on’ probe exhibited high selectivity towards H2S in aqueous solution with a detection limit of 30 nM. Notably, because of its dual nucleophilicity, the probe could avoid the interference of thiols and other sulfur containing compounds.
The present invention features a chemoselective ligation reaction that can be carried out under physiological conditions. In general, the invention involves condensation of a specifically engineered phosphine, which can provide for formation of an amide bond between the two reactive partners resulting in a final product comprising a phosphine moiety, or which can be engineered to comprise a cleavable linker so that a substituent of the phosphine is transferred to the azide, releasing an oxidized phosphine byproduct and producing a native amide bond in the final product. The selectivity of the reaction and its compatibility with aqueous environments provides for its application in vivo (e.g., on the cell surface or intracellularly) and in vitro (e.g., synthesis of peptides and other polymers, production of modified (e.g., labeled) amino acids).
