A visible-light-mediated thiol-ene reaction in aqueous medium is successfully achieved, with two different reaction pathways discovered in acidic and basic buffer systems, suitable for unprotected peptides.
A visible-light-mediated thiol-ene reaction is successfully operated in aqueous medium. An organic photoredox catalyst (9-mesityl-10-methylacridinum tetrafluoroborate) is used to initiate the radical process to generate thiyl radicals upon light irradiation. Two reaction pathways were discovered in different aqueous buffer systems. A thiol-ene adduct is preferred in acidic reaction medium; while disulfide formation is found to be favored in basic reaction medium. The photocatalytic method is demonstrated to be applicable on unprotected peptides. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
