<p>Target-directed dynamic combinatorial chemistry (tdDCC) enables the identification, as well as optimization of ligands for un(der)explored targets such as the anti-infective target 1‑deoxy‑d‑xylulose-5-phosphate synthase (DXS). We report the unprecedented use of tdDCC to first identify and subsequently optimize inhibitors of the anti-infective target DXS. Using tdDCC, we were able to generate acylhydrazone-based inhibitors for DXS. The tailored tdDCC runs also provided insights into the structure–activity relationship of this novel class of DXS inhibitors. This approach holds the potential to expedite the drug discovery process and could be generally applied to a range of biological targets.</p>

Amplification of a thermodynamically unfavoured macrocyclic product through the directed shift of the equilibrium between dynamic covalent chemistry library members is difficult to achieve. We show for the first time that during condensation of formaldehyde and <i>cis</i>-<i>N,N'</i>-cyclohexa-1,2-diylurea formation of <i>inverted-cis</i>-cyclohexanohemicucurbit[6]uril (<i>i-cis</i>-cycHC[6]) can be induced at the expense of thermodynamically favoured <i>cis</i>-cyclohexanohemicucurbit[6]uril (<i>cis</i>-cycHC[6]). The formation of <i>i-cis-</i>cycHC[6] is enhanced in low concentration of the templating chloride anion and suppressed in excess of this template. We found that reaction selectivity is governed by the solution-based template-aided dynamic combinatorial chemistry and continuous removal of the formed cycHC[6] macrocycles from the equilibrating solution by precipitation. Notably, the <i>i-cis</i>-cycHC[6] was isolated with 33% yield. Different binding affinities of three diastereomeric <i>i-cis</i>-, <i>cis</i>-cycHC[6] and their chiral isomer (<i>R,R</i>)-cycHC[6] for trifluoroacetic acid demonstrate the influence of macrocycle geometry on complex formation.

The past decades have witnessed a boom in alkynylation mainly owing to the importance of alkynyl-containing molecules in organic synthesis, drug discovery, polymer chemistry, and materials science. Besides conventional strategies,...
