Recent Advances in Quinone Methide Chemistry for Protein-Proximity Capturing

Dedicated to Professor Guoqiang Lin on the occasion of his 80^th birthday.

Abstract

Here we summarize the most recent findings in the chemical-, photo-, or enzyme-triggered generation of nitrogen and oxygen anions leading to the formation of quinone methide intermediates (QMIs). This short review is divided into two categories: generation of nitrogen and oxygen anions. Based on quinone methide intermediates (QMIs), proximate capture of a wide range of proteins has been widely determined and studied. Generally, the triggers include, photoirradiation using 365/254 nm UV light, small molecules (ROS/TBAF/s-tetrazine), metal catalysis (iridium catalysis), and enzymes (NQO1/β-galactosidase). New directions including far-red light, heat, force, microwave, and more practical approaches are explored and illustrated.
