Chem. 1959, 71, 176)] and began a literature survey. One Saturday afternoon during that time, I went a bookstore in Sapporo to look at new chemistry books and found a red and black two-tone colored book on the shelf that did not look like a chemistry book. The book was "Hydroboration" written by Professor Herbert C. Brown of Purdue University. It seemed to be an interesting book, so, I bought it. This book changed the course of my career, and my fascination with the chemistry of hydroboration reaction and organoboron compounds thus prepared by hydroboration began after reading the book. I immediately wrote to Professor Brown requesting to work as a postdoctoral research fellow. At that time Professor Brown was at Heidelberg in Germany as a visiting professor. He kindly wrote me a letter of acceptance, and I began a study of the stereochemistry of hydroboration reaction at Purdue (1963-65). Through this work I came to understand hydroboration and the interesting characteristics of organoboranes. My family (wife and two small girls) and I had a very good time there and made good friends. Of course I enjoyed chemistry. After a stay of about two years at Purdue, I returned to Japan with my family at the end of March 1965.

IN THIS CHAPTER, we begin our systematic study of organic reactions and their mecha- nisms. Reaction mechanisms are step-by-step descriptions of how reactions proceed and are one of the most important unifying concepts in organic chemistry. We use the reactions of alkenes as the vehicle to introduce this concept. 129 130 CHAPTER 5 Reactions of Alkenes and Alkynes 5.1 What Are the Characteristic Reactions of Alkenes? The most characteristic reaction of alkenes is addition to the carbon–carbon double bond in such a way that the pi bond is broken and, in its place, sigma bonds are formed to two new atoms or groups of atoms. Several examples of reactions at the carbon–carbon double bond are shown in Table 5.1, along with the descriptive name(s) associated with each.

Memeo and Paolo Quadrelli * Department of Chemistry, University of Pavia, Viale Taramelli 12, 27100 Pavia, Italy; [email protected] (M.M.); [email protected] (M.G.M.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-0382-987315 Received: 30 July 2019; Accepted: 1 October 2019; Published: 10 October 2019 Abstract: Peptide-based drugs, despite being relegated as niche pharmaceuticals for years, are now capturing more and more attention from the scientific community. The main problem for these kinds of pharmacological compounds was the low degree of cellular uptake, which relegates the application of peptide-drugs to extracellular targets. In recent years, many new techniques have been developed in order to bypass the intrinsic problem of this kind of pharmaceuticals. One of these features is the use of stapled peptides. Stapled peptides consist of peptide chains that bring an external brace that force the peptide structure into an a-helical one. The cross-link is obtained by the linkage of the side chains of opportune-modified amino acids posed at the right distance inside the peptide chain. In this account, we report the main stapling methodologies currently employed or under development and the synthetic pathways involved in the amino acid modifications. Moreover, we report the results of two comparative studies upon different kinds of stapled-peptides, evaluating the properties given from each typology of staple to the target peptide and discussing the best choices for the use of this feature in peptide-drug synthesis. Keywords: stapled peptide; structurally constrained peptide; cellular uptake; helicity; peptide drugs 1.

The corresponding alkene and dialdehyde gave only the triols 8 and 9 in ~1:1 ratio. By increasing the reaction time and the temperature, the isomerization of alkylboranes favours the un-symmetrical triol 9. The PDC oxidation of the alcohols gave cleanly the corresponding ketones 5 and 6 and the deprotection of the benzoate groups gave the symmetrical ketone 14, and the cyclic hemiketal 15, all in high yields.

First, I want to thank my advisor, Bob Grubbs. I truly could not have asked for a more incredible thesis advisor. Since the beginning of my time at Caltech, you have subtly guided me towards the water but never forced me to drink. You have given me independence in choosing which projects to pursue and the directions these projects go, but always provided suggestions and hints along the way that have kept me on track. I know you will continue to provide great advice and strong support even long after I've left Caltech. Thanks for being my invisible safety net over the last five years. I would have never even considered pursuing a Ph.D in chemistry in the first place if it weren't for the fantastic chemistry faculty at Macalester College. Rebecca Hoye, Ronald Brisbois, Paul Fischer, Keith Kuwata, Thomas Varberg and Katherine Splan, you were all tremendously influential in my life. You taught me how to see the exciting puzzles that are scattered throughout the field of chemistry.
