RESUMO
Chemically induced proximity-based targeted protein degradation (TPD) has become a prominent paradigm in drug discovery. With the clinical benefit demonstrated by certain small-molecule protein degraders that target the cullin-RING E3 ubiquitin ligases (CRLs), the field has proactively strategized to tackle anticipated drug resistance by harnessing additional E3 ubiquitin ligases to enrich the arsenal of this therapeutic approach. Here, we endeavor to explore the collaborative efforts involved in unlocking a broad range of CRL4DCAF for degrader drug development. Throughout the discussion, we also highlight how both conventional and innovative approaches in drug discovery can be taken to realize this objective. Moving ahead, we expect a greater allocation of resources in TPD to pursue these high-hanging fruits.
RESUMO
Fluorescent mitochondrial trackers with the dibenzo[ a, f]quinolizinium core are unprecedentedly synthesized by a one-pot protocol starting from commercially available benzaldehydes, anilines, and alkynes through a rhodium(III)-catalyzed cascade C-H N- and C-annulation reaction. Among them, 5g is the most prominent and exhibits high specificity, high efficiency at nanomolar level, superior photostability, and low cytotoxicity.

Rapid synthesis of the pentacyclic core structure of macroline-type indole alkaloids, and its application in the total synthesis of macroline and alstomicine is described. The core structure was accomplished in a highly stereocontrolled manner via two key steps, Ireland-Claisen rearrangement and Pictet-Spengler cyclization, commencing from a readily available starting material l-tryptophan, which obviated the need of a particular chiral source as an external catalyst, reagent, or internal auxiliary.
RESUMO
A cascade double C-H annulation of aldoximes with alkynes to produce benz[a]acridizinium salts is developed by using a simple catalytic system of [Cp*Rh(OAc)2]2 in the presence of Zn(OTf)2 with oxygen as the sole oxidant. In addition, the challenging C-H annulation of aldoximes with alkynes, especially arylalkynes, to synthesize 1H-isoquinolines is also achieved under slightly modified conditions. This protocol provides an efficient one-pot access to multisubstituted dehydroberberinium skeletons from simple starting materials, which can be easily transformed into berberinium and tetrahydroberberine skeletons by controlled hydrogenation.
RESUMO
The first stereoselective total synthesis of gonytolide C, which is a monomeric unit of an innate immune promoter gonytolide A, has been accomplished from the aldol reaction between acetophenone derived from orcinol and butyrolactone containing α-keto ester followed by the excellent diastereoselective intramolecular cyclization. The first total synthesis of gonytolide G has been achieved by the oxidation of benzylic methyl in gonytolide C. Additionally, total synthesis of lachnone C and a formal synthesis of blennolide C and diversonol have been achieved by this synthetic method.

A first total synthesis of acortatarins A, B, and an enantiomer of the proposed structure of acortatarin B is described by using readily available d-sugars. This convergent total synthesis revealed the revision of the absolute configuration of acortatarin A and structural revision of acortatarin B. The key steps involved are regioselective epoxide opening with deprotonated 2,5-disubstituted pyrrole and spiroketalization.
