Herein we will discuss how HTE can facilitate not only the development of new reaction manifolds, but also how to design HTE experiments to gain further understanding useful in medicinal chemistry efforts and late-stage functionalization. Case studies on cobalt-catalyzed C–H methylation and iridium-catalyzed C–H amination using drugs as substrates are presented. Moving towards more sustainable ways of working in drug discovery we also showcase how new dispensing techniques can considerably add to miniaturization of reaction development.

Abstract PROteolysis TArgeting Chimeras (PROTACs) are heterobifunctional molecules emerging as a powerful modality in drug discovery, with the potential to address outstanding medical challenges. However, the synthetic feasibility of PROTACs, and the empiric and complex nature of their structure-activity relationships continue to present formidable limitations. As such, modular and reliable approaches to streamline the synthesis of these derivatives are highly desirable. Here, we describe a robust ruthenium-catalysed late-stage C‒H amidation strategy, to access fully elaborated heterobifunctional compounds. Using readily available dioxazolone reagents, a broad range of inherently present functional groups can guide the C–H amidation on complex bioactive molecules. High selectivity and functional group tolerance enable the late-stage installation of linkers bearing orthogonal functional handles for downstream elaboration. Finally, the single-step synthesis of both CRBN and biotin conjugates is demonstrated, showcasing the potential of this methodology to provide efficient and sustainable access to advanced therapeutics and chemical biology tools.
