Definitions [0016] The abbreviations used herein have their conventional meaning within the chemical and biological arts. The chemical structures and formulae set forth herein are constructed according to the standard rules of chemical valency known in the chemical arts. [0017] Where substituent groups are specified by their conventional chemical formulae, written from left to right, they equally encompass the chemically identical substituents that would result from writing the structure from right to left, e.g., -CH 2 O- is equivalent to -OCH 2 -. [0018] The term “alkyl,” by itself or as part of another substituent, means, unless otherwise stated, a straight (i.e., unbranched) or branched carbon chain (or carbon), or combination thereof, which may be fully saturated, mono- or polyunsaturated and can include mono-, di-, and multivalent radicals. The alkyl may include a designated number of carbons (e.g., C 1 -C 10 means one to ten carbons). Alkyl is an uncyclized chain. Examples of saturated hydrocarbon radicals include, but are not limited to, groups such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, t-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, methyl, homologs and isomers of, for example, n-pentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, and the like. An unsaturated alkyl group is one having one or more double bonds or triple bonds. Examples of unsaturated alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, vinyl, 2- propenyl, crotyl, 2-isopentenyl, 2-(butadienyl), 2,4-pentadienyl, 3-(1,4-pentadienyl), ethynyl, 1- and 3-propynyl, 3-butynyl, and the higher homologs and isomers. An alkoxy is an alkyl attached to the remainder of the molecule via an oxygen linker (-O-). An alkyl moiety may be an alkenyl moiety. An alkyl moiety may be an alkynyl moiety.

A “lower alkyl” or “lower alkylene” is a shorter chain alkyl or alkylene group, generally having eight or fewer carbon atoms. The term “alkenylene,” by itself or as part of another substituent, means, unless otherwise stated, a divalent radical derived from an alkene. The term “alkynylene” by itself or as part of another substituent, means, unless otherwise stated, a divalent radical derived from an alkyne. [0020] The term “heteroalkyl,” by itself or in combination with another term, means, unless otherwise stated, a stable straight or branched chain, or combinations thereof, including at least one carbon atom and at least one heteroatom (e.g., O, N, P, Si, and S), and wherein the nitrogen and sulfur atoms may optionally be oxidized, and the nitrogen heteroatom may optionally be quaternized. The heteroatom(s) (e.g., O, N, S, Si, or P) may be placed at any interior position of the heteroalkyl group or at the position at which the alkyl group is attached to the remainder of the molecule. Heteroalkyl is an uncyclized chain. Examples include, but are not limited to: -CH 2 -CH 2 -O-CH 3 , -CH 2 -CH 2 -NH-CH 3 , -CH 2 -CH 2 -N(CH 3 )-CH 3 , -CH 2 -S-CH 2 -CH 3 , -CH2-S-CH2, -S(O)-CH3, -CH2-CH2-S(O)2-CH3, -CH=CH-O-CH3, -Si(CH3)3, -CH 2 -CH=N-OCH 3 , -CH=CH-N(CH 3 )-CH 3 , -O-CH 3 , -O-CH 2 -CH 3 , and -CN.

For heteroalkylene groups, heteroatoms can also occupy either or both of the chain termini (e.g., alkyleneoxy, alkylenedioxy, alkyleneamino, alkylenediamino, and the like). Still further, for alkylene and heteroalkylene linking groups, no orientation of the linking group is implied by the direction in which the formula of the linking group is written. For example, the formula -C(O)2R'- represents both -C(O) 2 R'- and -R'C(O) 2 -. As described above, heteroalkyl groups, as used herein, include those groups that are attached to the remainder of the molecule through a heteroatom, such as -C(O)R', -C(O)NR', -NR'R'', -OR', -SR', and/or -SO2R'. Where “heteroalkyl” is recited, followed by recitations of specific heteroalkyl groups, such as -NR'R'' or the like, it will be understood that the terms heteroalkyl and -NR'R'' are not redundant or mutually exclusive. Rather, the specific heteroalkyl groups are recited to add clarity. Thus, the term “heteroalkyl” should not be interpreted herein as excluding specific heteroalkyl groups, such as -NR'R'' or the like. [0022] The terms “cycloalkyl” and “heterocycloalkyl,” by themselves or in combination with other terms, mean, unless otherwise stated, cyclic versions of “alkyl” and “heteroalkyl,” respectively.

[0023] In embodiments, the term “cycloalkyl” means a monocyclic, bicyclic, or a multicyclic cycloalkyl ring system. In embodiments, monocyclic ring systems are cyclic hydrocarbon groups containing from 3 to 8 carbon atoms, where such groups can be saturated or unsaturated, but not aromatic.

Preferred substituents for each type of radical are provided below. [0037] Substituents for the alkyl and heteroalkyl radicals (including those groups often referred to as alkylene, alkenyl, heteroalkylene, heteroalkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, and heterocycloalkenyl) can be one or more of a variety of groups selected from, but not limited to, -OR', =O, =NR', =N-OR', -NR'R'', -SR', -halogen, -SiR'R''R''', -OC(O)R', -C(O)R', -CO2R', -CONR'R'', -OC(O)NR'R'', -NR''C(O)R', -NR'-C(O)NR''R''', -NR''C(O)2R', -NR-C(NR'R''R''')=NR'''', -NR-C(NR'R'')=NR''', -S(O)R', -S(O) 2 R', -S(O) 2 NR'R'', -NRSO 2 R', ^NR'NR''R''', ^ONR'R'', ^NR'C(O)NR''NR'''R'''', -CN, -NO2, -NR'SO2R'', -NR'C(O)R'', -NR'C(O)OR'', -NR'OR'', in a number ranging from zero to (2m'+1), where m' is the total number of carbon atoms in such radical. R, R', R'', R''', and R'''' each preferably independently refer to hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl (e.g., aryl substituted with 1-3 halogens), substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, alkoxy, or thioalkoxy groups, or arylalkyl groups. When a compound described herein includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R', R'', R''', and R'''' group when more than one of these groups is present. When R' and R'' are attached to the same nitrogen atom, they can be combined with the nitrogen atom to form a 4-, 5-, 6-, or 7-membered ring. For example, -NR'R'' includes, but is not limited to, 1-pyrrolidinyl and 4-morpholinyl. From the above discussion of substituents, one of skill in the art will understand that the term “alkyl” is meant to include groups including carbon atoms bound to groups other than hydrogen groups, such as haloalkyl (e.g., -CF 3 and -CH 2 CF 3 ) and acyl (e.g., -C(O)CH 3 , -C(O)CF 3 , -C(O)CH 2 OCH 3 , and the like). [0038] Similar to the substituents described for the alkyl radical, substituents for the aryl and heteroaryl groups are varied and are selected from, for example: -OR', -NR'R'', -SR', -halogen, -SiR'R''R''', -OC(O)R', -C(O)R', -CO2R', -CONR'R'', -OC(O)NR'R'', -NR''C(O)R', -NR'-C(O)NR''R''', -NR''C(O) 2 R', -NR-C(NR'R''R''')=NR'''', -NR-C(NR'R'')=NR''', -S(O)R', -S(O)2R', -S(O)2NR'R'', -NRSO2R', ^NR'NR''R''', ^ONR'R'', ^NR'C(O)NR''NR'''R'''', -CN, -NO2, -R', -N3, -CH(Ph)2, fluoro(C1-C4)alkoxy, and fluoro(C1-C4)alkyl, -NR'SO2R'', -NR'C(O)R'', -NR'C(O)-OR'', -NR'OR'', in a number ranging from zero to the total number of open valences on the aromatic ring system; and where R', R'', R''', and R'''' are preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. When a compound described herein includes more than one R group, for example, each of the R groups is independently selected as are each R', R'', R''', and R'''' groups when more than one of these groups is present. [0039] Substituents for rings (e.g., cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkylene, heterocycloalkylene, arylene, or heteroarylene) may be depicted as substituents on the ring rather than on a specific atom of a ring (commonly referred to as a floating substituent). In such a case, the substituent may be attached to any of the ring atoms (obeying the rules of chemical valency) and in the case of fused rings or spirocyclic rings, a substituent depicted as associated with one member of the fused rings or spirocyclic rings (a floating substituent on a single ring), may be a substituent on any of the fused rings or spirocyclic rings (a floating substituent on multiple rings). When a substituent is attached to a ring, but not a specific atom (a floating substituent), and a subscript for the substituent is an integer greater than one, the multiple substituents may be on the same atom, same ring, different atoms, different fused rings, different spirocyclic rings, and each substituent may optionally be different. Where a point of attachment of a ring to the remainder of a molecule is not limited to a single atom (a floating substituent), the attachment point may be any atom of the ring and in the case of a fused ring or spirocyclic ring, any atom of any of the fused rings or spirocyclic rings while obeying the rules of chemical valency. Where a ring, fused rings, or spirocyclic rings contain one or more ring heteroatoms and the ring, fused rings, or spirocyclic rings are shown with one more floating substituents (including, but not limited to, points of attachment to the remainder of the molecule), the floating substituents may be bonded to the heteroatoms. Where the ring heteroatoms are shown bound to one or more hydrogens (e.g., a ring nitrogen with two bonds to ring atoms and a third bond to a hydrogen) in the structure or formula with the floating substituent, when the heteroatom is bonded to the floating substituent, the substituent will be understood to replace the hydrogen, while obeying the rules of chemical valency. [0040] Two or more substituents may optionally be joined to form aryl, heteroaryl, cycloalkyl, or heterocycloalkyl groups. Such so-called ring-forming substituents are typically, though not necessarily, found attached to a cyclic base structure. In one embodiment, the ring-forming substituents are attached to adjacent members of the base structure. For example, two ring- forming substituents attached to adjacent members of a cyclic base structure create a fused ring structure. In another embodiment, the ring-forming substituents are attached to a single member of the base structure. For example, two ring-forming substituents attached to a single member of a cyclic base structure create a spirocyclic structure. In yet another embodiment, the ring- forming substituents are attached to non-adjacent members of the base structure. [0041] Two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally form a ring of the formula -T-C(O)-(CRR')q-U-, wherein T and U are independently -NR-, -O-, -CRR'-, or a single bond, and q is an integer of from 0 to 3. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula -A-(CH2)r-B-, wherein A and B are independently -CRR'-, -O-, -NR-, -S-, -S(O) -, -S(O) 2 -, -S(O) 2 NR'-, or a single bond, and r is an integer of from 1 to 4. One of the single bonds of the new ring so formed may optionally be replaced with a double bond. Alternatively, two of the substituents on adjacent atoms of the aryl or heteroaryl ring may optionally be replaced with a substituent of the formula -(CRR') s -X'- (C''R''R''') d -, where s and d are independently integers of from 0 to 3, and X' is -O-, -NR'-, -S-, -S(O)-, -S(O) 2 -, or -S(O) 2 NR'-. The substituents R, R', R'', and R''' are preferably independently selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted heteroaryl. [0042] As used herein, the terms “heteroatom” or “ring heteroatom” are meant to include oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), sulfur (S), phosphorus (P), and silicon (Si).

In turn, each first substituent group (e.g., R 1.1 , R 2.1 , R 3.1 , R 4.1 , R 5.1 … R 100.1 ; R 1A.1 , R 2A.1 , R 3A.1 , R 4A.1 , R 5A.1 … R 100A.1 ; R L1.1 , R L2.1 , R L3.1 , R L4.1 , R L5.1 … R L100.1 ) may be further substituted with one or more second substituent groups (e.g., R 1.2 , R 2.2 , R 3.2 , R 4.2 , R 5.2 … R 100.2 ; R 1A.2 , R 2A.2 , R 3A.2 , R 4A.2 , R 5A.2 … R 100A.2 ; R L1.2 , R L2.2 , R L3.2 , R L4.2 , R L5.2 … R L100.2 , respectively). Thus, each first substituent group, which may alternatively be represented herein as R WW.1 as described above, may be further substituted with one or more second substituent groups, which may alternatively be represented herein as R WW.2 . [0056] Finally, each second substituent group (e.g., R 1.2 , R 2.2 , R 3.2 , R 4.2 , R 5.2 … R 100.2 ; R 1A.2 , R 2A.2 , R 3A.2 , R 4A.2 , R 5A.2 … R 100A.2 ; R L1.2 , R L2.2 , R L3.2 , R L4.2 , R L5.2 … R L100.2 ) may be further substituted with one or more third substituent groups (e.g., R 1.3 , R 2.3 , R 3.3 , R 4.3 , R 5.3 … R 100.3 ; R 1A.3 , R 2A.3 , R 3A.3 , R 4A.3 , R 5A.3 … R 100A.3 ; R L1.3 , R L2.3 , R L3.3 , R L4.3 , R L5.3 … R L100.3 ; respectively). Thus, each second substituent group, which may alternatively be represented herein as R WW.2 as described above, may be further substituted with one or more third substituent groups, which may alternatively be represented herein as R WW.3 . Each of the first substituent groups may be optionally different. Each of the second substituent groups may be optionally different. Each of the third substituent groups may be optionally different. [0057] Thus, as used herein, R WW represents a substituent recited in a claim or chemical formula description herein which is openly substituted. “WW” represents the stated superscript number of the subject R group (1, 2, 3, 1A, 2A, 3A, 1B, 2B, 3B, etc.). Likewise, L WW is a linker recited in a claim or chemical formula description herein which is openly substituted. Again, “WW” represents the stated superscript number of the subject L group (1, 2, 3, 1A, 2A, 3A, 1B, 2B, 3B, etc.). As stated above, in embodiments, each R WW may be unsubstituted or independently substituted with one or more first substituent groups, referred to herein as R WW.1 ; each first substituent group, R WW.1 , may be unsubstituted or independently substituted with one or more second substituent groups, referred to herein as R WW.2 ; and each second substituent group may be unsubstituted or independently substituted with one or more third substituent groups, referred to herein as R WW.3 . Similarly, each L WW linker may be unsubstituted or independently substituted with one or more first substituent groups, referred to herein as R LWW.1 ; each first substituent group, R LWW.1 , may be unsubstituted or independently substituted with one or more second substituent groups, referred to herein as R LWW.2 ; and each second substituent group may be unsubstituted or independently substituted with one or more third substituent groups, referred to herein as R LWW.3 . Each first substituent group is optionally different. Each second substituent group is optionally different. Each third substituent group is optionally different. For example, if R WW is phenyl, the said phenyl group is optionally substituted by one or more R WW.1 groups as defined herein below, e.g., when R WW.1 is R WW.2 -substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, examples of groups so formed include but are not limited to itself optionally substituted by 1 or more R WW.2 , which R WW.2 is optionally substituted by one or more R WW.3 . By way of example when the R WW group is phenyl substituted by R WW.1 , which is methyl, the methyl group may be further substituted to form groups including but not limited to:

[0067] Certain compounds of the present disclosure possess asymmetric carbon atoms (optical or chiral centers) or double bonds; the enantiomers, racemates, diastereomers, tautomers, geometric isomers, stereoisometric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)-or (S)- or, as (D)- or (L)- for amino acids, and individual isomers are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. The compounds of the present disclosure do not include those that are known in art to be too unstable to synthesize and/or isolate. The present disclosure is meant to include compounds in racemic and optically pure forms. Optically active (R)- and (S)-, or (D)- and (L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques. When the compounds described herein contain olefinic bonds or other centers of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Z geometric isomers. [0068] As used herein, the term “isomers” refers to compounds having the same number and kind of atoms, and hence the same molecular weight, but differing in respect to the structural arrangement or configuration of the atoms. [0069] The term “tautomer,” as used herein, refers to one of two or more structural isomers which exist in equilibrium and which are readily converted from one isomeric form to another. [0070] It will be apparent to one skilled in the art that certain compounds of this disclosure may exist in tautomeric forms, all such tautomeric forms of the compounds being within the scope of the disclosure. [0071] Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include all stereochemical forms of the structure; i.e., the R and S configurations for each asymmetric center. Therefore, single stereochemical isomers as well as enantiomeric and diastereomeric mixtures of the present compounds are within the scope of the disclosure. [0072] Unless otherwise stated, structures depicted herein are also meant to include compounds which differ only in the presence of one or more isotopically enriched atoms. For example, compounds having the present structures except for the replacement of a hydrogen by a deuterium or tritium, or the replacement of a carbon by 13 C- or 14 C-enriched carbon are within the scope of this disclosure. [0073] The compounds of the present disclosure may also contain unnatural proportions of atomic isotopes at one or more of the atoms that constitute such compounds. For example, the compounds may be radiolabeled with radioactive isotopes, such as for example tritium ( 3 H), iodine-125 ( 125 I), or carbon-14 ( 14 C). All isotopic variations of the compounds of the present disclosure, whether radioactive or not, are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. [0074] It should be noted that throughout the application that alternatives are written in Markush groups, for example, each amino acid position that contains more than one possible amino acid. It is specifically contemplated that each member of the Markush group should be considered separately, thereby comprising another embodiment, and the Markush group is not to be read as a single unit. [0075] “Analog” or “analogue” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning within Chemistry and Biology and refers to a chemical compound that is structurally similar to another compound (i.e., a so-called “reference” compound) but differs in composition, e.g., in the replacement of one atom by an atom of a different element, or in the presence of a particular functional group, or the replacement of one functional group by another functional group, or the absolute stereochemistry of one or more chiral centers of the reference compound. Accordingly, an analog is a compound that is similar or comparable in function and appearance but not in structure or origin to a reference compound. [0076] The terms “a” or “an”, as used in herein means one or more. In addition, the phrase “substituted with a[n]”, as used herein, means the specified group may be substituted with one or more of any or all of the named substituents. For example, where a group, such as an alkyl or heteroaryl group, is “substituted with an unsubstituted C1-C20 alkyl, or unsubstituted 2 to 20 membered heteroalkyl”, the group may contain one or more unsubstituted C1-C20 alkyls, and/or one or more unsubstituted 2 to 20 membered heteroalkyls. [0077] Moreover, where a moiety is substituted with an R substituent, the group may be referred to as “R-substituted.” Where a moiety is R-substituted, the moiety is substituted with at least one R substituent and each R substituent is optionally different. Where a particular R group is present in the description of a chemical genus (such as Formula (I)), a Roman alphabetic symbol may be used to distinguish each appearance of that particular R group. For example, where multiple R 13 substituents are present, each R 13 substituent may be distinguished as R 13A , R 13B , R 13C , R 13D , etc., wherein each of R 13A , R 13B , R 13C , R 13D , etc. is defined within the scope of the definition of R 13 and optionally differently. [0078] Radioactive substances (e.g., radioisotopes) that may be used as imaging and/or labeling agents in accordance with the embodiments of the disclosure include, but are not limited to, 18 F, 32 P, 33 P, 45 Ti, 47 Sc, 52 Fe, 59 Fe, 62 Cu, 64 Cu, 67 Cu, 67 Ga, 68 Ga, 77 As, 86 Y, 90 Y, 89 Sr, 89 Zr, 94 Tc, 94 Tc, 99m Tc, 99 Mo, 105 Pd, 105 Rh, 111 Ag, 111 In, 123 I, 124 I, 125 I, 131 I, 142 Pr, 143 Pr, 149 Pm, 153 Sm, 154- 1581 Gd, 161 Tb, 166 Dy, 166 Ho, 169 Er, 175 Lu, 177 Lu, 186 Re, 188 Re, 189 Re, 194 Ir, 198 Au, 199 Au, 211 At, 211 Pb, 212 Pb, 212 Bi, 213 Bi, 223 Ra, and 225 Ac. Paramagnetic ions that may be used as additional imaging agents in accordance with the embodiments of the disclosure include, but are not limited to, ions of transition and lanthanide metals (e.g., metals having atomic numbers of 21-29, 42, 43, 44, or 57-71). These metals include ions of Cr, V, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu. [0079] Descriptions of compounds of the present disclosure are limited by principles of chemical bonding known to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, where a group may be substituted by one or more of a number of substituents, such substitutions are selected so as to comply with principles of chemical bonding and to give compounds which are not inherently unstable and/or would be known to one of ordinary skill in the art as likely to be unstable under ambient conditions, such as aqueous, neutral, and several known physiological conditions. For example, a heterocycloalkyl or heteroaryl is attached to the remainder of the molecule via a ring heteroatom in compliance with principles of chemical bonding known to those skilled in the art thereby avoiding inherently unstable compounds. [0080] The term “leaving group” is used in accordance with its ordinary meaning in chemistry and refers to a moiety (e.g., atom, functional group, molecule) that separates from the molecule following a chemical reaction (e.g., bond formation, reductive elimination, condensation, cross- coupling reaction) involving an atom or chemical moiety to which the leaving group is attached, also referred to herein as the “leaving group reactive moiety”, and a complementary reactive moiety (i.e. a chemical moiety that reacts with the leaving group reactive moiety) to form a new bond between the remnants of the leaving groups reactive moiety and the complementary reactive moiety. Thus, the leaving group reactive moiety and the complementary reactive moiety form a complementary reactive group pair. Non limiting examples of leaving groups include hydrogen, hydroxide, organotin moieties (e.g., organotin heteroalkyl), halogen (e.g., Br), perfluoroalkylsulfonates (e.g. triflate), tosylates, mesylates, water, alcohols, nitrate, phosphate, thioether, amines, ammonia, fluoride, carboxylate, phenoxides, boronic acid, boronate esters, and alkoxides. In embodiments, two molecules with leaving groups are allowed to contact, and upon a reaction and/or bond formation (e.g., acyloin condensation, aldol condensation, Claisen condensation, Stille reaction) the leaving groups separates from the respective molecule. [0081] A person of ordinary skill in the art will understand when a variable (e.g., moiety or linker) of a compound or of a compound genus (e.g., a genus described herein) is described by a name or formula of a standalone compound with all valencies filled, the unfilled valence(s) of the variable will be dictated by the context in which the variable is used. For example, when a variable of a compound as described herein is connected (e.g., bonded) to the remainder of the compound through a single bond, that variable is understood to represent a monovalent form (i.e., capable of forming a single bond due to an unfilled valence) of a standalone compound (e.g., if the variable is named “methane” in an embodiment but the variable is known to be attached by a single bond to the remainder of the compound, a person of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the variable is actually a monovalent form of methane, i.e., methyl or –CH 3 ). Likewise, for a linker variable (e.g., L 1 , L 2 , or L 3 as described herein), a person of ordinary skill in the art will understand that the variable is the divalent form of a standalone compound (e.g., if the variable is assigned to “PEG” or “polyethylene glycol” in an embodiment but the variable is connected by two separate bonds to the remainder of the compound, a person of ordinary skill in the art would understand that the variable is a divalent (i.e., capable of forming two bonds through two unfilled valences) form of PEG instead of the standalone compound PEG). [0082] As used herein, the term “salt” refers to acid or base salts of the compounds used in the methods of the present invention. Illustrative examples of acceptable salts are mineral acid (hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, and the like) salts, organic acid (acetic acid, propionic acid, glutamic acid, citric acid and the like) salts, quaternary ammonium (methyl iodide, ethyl iodide, and the like) salts. [0083] Thus, the compounds of the present disclosure may exist as salts. The present disclosure includes such salts. Non-limiting examples of such salts include hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, phosphates, sulfates, methanesulfonates, nitrates, maleates, acetates, citrates, fumarates, proprionates, tartrates (e.g., (+)-tartrates, (-)-tartrates, or mixtures thereof including racemic mixtures), succinates, benzoates, and salts with amino acids such as glutamic acid, and quaternary ammonium salts (e.g., methyl iodide, ethyl iodide, and the like). These salts may be prepared by methods known to those skilled in the art. [0084] The neutral forms of the compounds are preferably regenerated by contacting the salt with a base or acid and isolating the parent compound in the conventional manner. The parent form of the compound may differ from the various salt forms in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents. [0085] Certain compounds of the present disclosure can exist in unsolvated forms as well as solvated forms, including hydrated forms. In general, the solvated forms are equivalent to unsolvated forms and are encompassed within the scope of the present disclosure. Certain compounds of the present disclosure may exist in multiple crystalline or amorphous forms. In general, all physical forms are equivalent for the uses contemplated by the present disclosure and are intended to be within the scope of the present disclosure. [0086] As used herein, the term “about” means a range of values including the specified value, which a person of ordinary skill in the art would consider reasonably similar to the specified value. In embodiments, about means within a standard deviation using measurements generally acceptable in the art. In embodiments, about means a range extending to +/- 10% of the specified value. In embodiments, about includes the specified value. [0087] “Contacting” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning and refers to the process of allowing at least two distinct species (e.g., chemical compounds including biomolecules or cells) to become sufficiently proximal to react, interact or physically touch. It should be appreciated; however, the resulting reaction product can be produced directly from a reaction between the added reagents or from an intermediate from one or more of the added reagents that can be produced in the reaction mixture. [0088] In this disclosure, “comprises,” “comprising,” “containing” and “having” and the like can have the meaning ascribed to them in U.S. Patent law and can mean “ includes,” “including,” and the like. “Consisting essentially of” or “consists essentially” likewise has the meaning ascribed in U.S. Patent law and the term is open-ended, allowing for the presence of more than that which is recited so long as basic or novel characteristics of that which is recited is not changed by the presence of more than that which is recited, but excludes prior art embodiments. [0089] The term “polymer” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning in the art, and refers to a molecule including repeating subunits (e.g., polymerized monomers). [0090] The term “dehydrogenated polymer” as used herein refers to a polymer including a carbon-carbon double bond. [0091] The term “olefin metathesis” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning in the art, and refers to an organic reaction involving the redistribution of fragments of alkenes (olefins) by the scission and regeranation of carbon-carbon double bonds. [0092] The term “olefin isomerization” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning in the art, and refers to an organic reaction involving the relocation of a carbon-carbon double bond in a molecule to a different part of the molecule. In embodiments, olefin isomerization is isomerization of a terminal olefin to an internal olefin. [0093] The term “dehydrogenation” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning in the art, and refers to an organic reaction involving the removal of hydrogen, e.g., from an organic molecule. In embodiments, dehydrogenation is the conversion of an alkane to an olefin. [0094] The term “catalyst” is used in accordance with its plain ordinary meaning in the art, and refers to a species that increases the rate of a chemical reaction. The catalyst is not consumed in the reaction and can continue to act repeatedly. [0095] The term “high-density polyethylene” or “HDPE” refers to a thermoplastic polymer produced from the monomer ethylene and is known for its high strength-to-density ratio. Typically, the density of HDPE ranges from about 0.93 g/cm 3 to about 0.97 g/cm 3 . HDPE has minimal branching of its polymer chains and is therefore denser than low-density polyethylene. [0096] The term “low-density polyethylene” or “LDPE” refers to a thermoplastic polymer produced from the monomer ethylene. Typically, the density of LDPE ranges from about 0.917 g/cm 3 to about 0.930 g/cm 3 . [0097] The term “linear low-density polyethylene” or “LLDPE” refers to a substantially linear polyethylene with significant numbers of short branches. LLDPE differs from LDPE because of the absence of long chain branching. Typically, the density of LLDPE ranges from about 0.91 g/cm 3 to about 0.94 g/cm 3 . II.

EXAMPLES Example 1: Integrated catalysis for chemical recycling of polyethylene to propene [0391] Disclosed herein, inter alia, is the conversion of polyethylene to propene by integrating polyethylene dehydrogenation with tandem isomerizing ethenolysis of the resulting dehydro- polyethylene. Dehydrogenation of high-density polyethylene with an iridium-pincer complex or with Pt/Zn on silica yielded dehydrogenated material containing up to 3.2% internal olefins, and the combination of a second-generation Hoveyda-Grubbs metathesis catalyst and [PdP( t Bu)3(μ- Br)] 2 as an isomerization catalyst selectively degraded this unsaturated polymer to propene in yields up to 80%. This process shows the feasibility of mild catalysis to deconstruct stable polyolefins. [0392] The mechanical durability and chemical inertness of commercial plastics have led to their widespread use in everyday life, but these same properties make them difficult to recycle. Polyolefins, which account for 36% of global plastic production (1), are particularly durable and inert and are especially incompatible with traditional mechanical recycling. Only a small proportion of polyethylene (PE) waste is recovered by recycling (around 14% in 2015) (2), and the properties of the recycled materials are inferior to those of the virgin plastic. Polyolefins are prepared with molecular weights, molecular-weight distributions, and microstructures for specific applications. Thus, a mixture of polyethylenes that have been produced for diverse applications lack the properties of each individual component and possess accumulated additives and contaminants (2). Given the significant social, economic, and ecological threats from the accumulation of mixed polyolefin waste, new approaches to use this material as a carbon feedstock are needed (2-4). [0393] Our group (5) and others (6-8) have been investigating catalytic chemistry that could occur with these polymers containing only alkyl C-H and C-C bonds. Because the C-H bond are more reactive than the C-C bonds, the introduction of functional groups onto the polymer chain has been sought to create new properties (5, 7, 8). More challenging are methods for “chemical recycling” of polyolefins, which is the cleavage of polymer chains to regenerate monomers that could be repolymerized (6, 9). While processes are well established to cleave the carbon-oxygen bonds of polyesters (10), methods to cleave the alkyl carbon-carbon bonds of polyethylene are more limited. Pyrolysis (4), catalytic cracking (11), hydrogenolysis (12-15), tandem hydrogenolysis-aromatization (16), and alkane metathesis (17, 18) have been reported for cleavage of PE chains. However, these processes form complex mixtures of hydrocarbons which are difficult to separate and have varying values (FIG.1A). A process is needed by which PE undergoes depolymerization to form a single product for which the demand approaches the supply of PE waste. A method for the selective production of a commodity olefin from polyethylene could thus render PE a valuable hydrocarbon feedstock. [0394] We envisioned a cascade of catalytic processes that would introduce unsaturation to a PE chain and then unravel the chain to propene. More specifically, dehydrogenation could be used to enable subsequent C-C bond cleavage by a combination of olefin metathesis and isomerization to form propene (FIG.1B) (19, 20). We show that the combination of dehydrogenation of high molecular-weight, high-density or low-density polyethylene and subsequent IE of the resulting crude, high-molecular-weight PE containing internal alkenes converts polyethylene to propene in yields as high as 80%. This dehydrogenation and isomerizing ethenolysis (DIE) occurs on post-consumer, in addition to laboratory-grade, polyethylene and occurs on dehydrogenated PE produced by either homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysts. [0395] To determine whether the conversion of polyethylene to propene could be achieved by a cascade comprising dehydrogenation and isomerizing ethenolysis (DIE), a reliable dehydrogenation reaction was first needed. The dehydrogenation of PE to form unsaturated polymer has been reported using an iridium dehydrogenation catalyst, but only with material possessing an Mn (number-average molecular weight) of 606 to ensure solubility (21, 22). Many alkane dehydrogenation catalysts have been reported since that time, and we investigated catalysts containing symmetric tBu POCOP and related ligands (23). Dehydrogenations of laboratory-grade HDPE (Aldrich, Mn 26.1 kDa, Đ = 3.31) and LDPE (Aldrich, Mn = 35.1 kDa, Đ = 6.54) catalyzed by Ir- tBu POCOP with tert-butyl ethylene (TBE) as hydrogen acceptor in p- xylene solvent yielded unsaturated polymer containing exclusively internal olefins (up to 3.2%), along with small amounts (<0.75%) of alkylarenes (FIG.2A), as determined by 1 H NMR spectroscopy. The isomerization of terminal olefins, which might be the kinetic product, to internal olefins is well known from dehydrogenation of liquid alkanes with this catalyst (24). [0396] Data on the dehydrogenation of polyethylenes with molecular catalysts are summarized in Table 1 below. HDPE (Commercial) refers to high density polyethylene (HDPE) sourced from Sigma Aldrich, with number average molecular weight (Mn) of 26.1 kDa and polydispersity (Đ ) of 2.86, as measured by high temperature size-exclusion chromatography against polystyrene standards.

We tested the dehydrogenation of HDPE with Pt/Sn and Pt/Zn catalysts on heterogeneous supports (26). Heating of the polymer melt over such catalysts under a flow of argon at 350 °C furnished unsaturated PE containing up to 0.6% olefins, along with ~0.25% arenes (FIG.2B). Again, all the olefin units were internal olefins. [0399] Data on the dehydrogenation of polyolefins using multi-metallic heterogeneous catalysts are summarized in Table 3 below. All polymer labels are as specified above. Pt/Sn- γAl2O3 refers to a catalyst consisting of 2 wt% Pt and 4.6% Sn supported on gamma alumina. Pt/Zn-SiO2 refers to a catalyst consisting of 0.5 wt% Pt and 0.95% Zn supported on silica. Pt/Sn/K-γAl 2 O 3 refers to a catalyst consisting of 0.5 wt % Pt, 1.2% Sn, and 6.8% K supported on gamma alumina. [0400] Having demonstrated the feasibility of the dehydrogenation of high-molecular-weight PE, we tested if varying levels of alkenes could be installed into the chain. To do so, we subjected laboratory-grade HDPE to dehydrogenation with Ir- tBu POCOP and varying loadings of TBE as sacrificial H2 acceptor. These reactions produced PE with degrees of unsaturation ranging from 0.6% to 3.2%. [0401] It was unclear if high-molecular-weight, unsaturated PE would undergo ethenolysis to form the long-chain terminal alkenes for the isomerizing ethenolysis. In the event, subjecting the unsaturated HDPE containing 1.09% olefin units to ethenolysis with 1.8 mol % M-1 resulted in a reduction of the M n from 18.1 kDa to 1.6 kDa. The M n of the cleaved product corresponds to an average chain length of 114 carbons (FIG.2C). To model the process of dehydrogenation and ethenolysis on a pure reactant and to gain information on the position of the alkene units and the resulting chain lengths, we conducted these reactions on a pure, long-chain alkane, tetracosane (C24H50). Initial dehydrogenation of tetracosane (C24H50) with 1 equivalent of TBE converted about 10% of the alkane to internal tetracosenes. Subsequent ethenolysis of the reaction mixture catalyzed by M-1 under 25 bar of ethylene formed the distribution of olefins including a wide range of chain lengths shown in FIG.2D. This set of olefins demonstrates that dehydrogenation with Ir- tBu POCOP produces a distribution of internal olefins, rather than alkenes near the chain terminus. [0402] Having shown we could generate long-chain alkenes from PE, we investigated conditions for IE of the resulting chains. IE of hydrocarbons is known for the conversion of unsaturated alkylarenes to vinylarenes and for the conversion of 1-octadecene to propene at low conversions. We sought an IE that would convert the long-chain PE fragments to propene with high conversions by seeking conditions for high conversion of 1-octadecene (1a) (19). Several combinations of complexes known to catalyze either olefin metathesis or isomerization were tested, and the results are summarized in FIG.3A. The reaction of octadecene with ethylene catalyzed by the combination of Hoveyda-Grubbs catalyst M-1 (6 mol% relative to alkene chains) and the dimeric Pd(I) bromide catalyst I-1 (3 mol%) at 60 °C for 16 h formed propene in 95% yield. [0403] Catalyst systems created from other combinations of individual metathesis and isomerization catalysts led to lower yields of propene. The system containing M-3 and I-1 was the next most active, and combinations with other metathesis catalysts and I-1 led to lower yields. The reactions also occurred in lower yields with the combination of M-1 and other isomerization catalysts we tested. All the isomerization catalysts furnished exclusively internal octadecenes from 1-octadecene in high or quantitative yield after 16 h at 60 °C in p-xylene, implying that incompatibility of the isomerization catalysts with the metathesis catalyst or with ethylene is the cause of the lower yields of propene with isomerization catalysts I2-I4 (see Table 4 for details). [0404] Table 4. 1-Octadecene isomerization. [0405] The free energy of isomerizing ethenolysis is estimated to be negative, but small (-1.52 kcal/mol for each propene formed under standard conditions). Thus, our standard reactions that gave 95% yield of propene were conducted in a pressure vessel with sufficient head space to provide a large excess (64 equiv per methylene unit) of ethylene in the vessel to favor full consumption of the alkene chain. Consistent with the estimated thermodynamics, reactions with a smaller headspace providing just 3.5 equiv of ethylene in the system also led to a high, albeit slightly lower, 72 ± 6% yield of propene. [0406] Finally, we tested the formation of propene from ethylene and the unsaturated PEs we produced by dehydrogenation. The reactions of ethylene with the material from HDPE catalyzed by the two complexes in our IE system formed propene in yields shown in FIG.3C. Reactions with HDPE containing only 0.68% unsaturation formed propene in nearly 60% yield. Reaction of the polymer in which 1.9% of the monomer units were unsaturated led to the formation of propene in 87% yield. The conversion of unsaturated LDPE to propene also occurred under these conditions in yields up to 70%. Thus, the DIE process we disclose converts polyethylene and ethylene to propene in high yield. [0407] We considered that ethylene could undergo dimerization or oligomerization, followed by ethenolysis to form propene without contribution from the polymer chains. Indeed, we did observe this background reactivity in the absence of long-chain olefins to form 0.13 mmol of propene under our reaction conditions after 16 h at 60 °C and to form 1.01 mmol of propene after the same time at 130 °C. Thus, to determine whether the observed propene from the reactions with PE originated from dehydrogenated polymer or from the background conversion of ethylene to propene, we designed an isotope labeling experiment whereby the production of propene could be observed more directly. Because both dehydrogenation and IE scramble 2 H labels, we conducted experiments with 13 C-labeled PE to clearly assess the extent of formation of propene from polymer. The propene arising from dehydrogenated PE by the proposed scheme would consist entirely of the singly 13 C labeled isotopomer. This isotopic composition would be observed because scrambling would occur at the termini of propene by olefin metathesis during the IE but scrambling at the 2-position would not (FIG.3C). Accordingly, we subjected 13 C- labeled (99.9% 13 C) HDPE to DIE and characterized the resulting propene by mass spectrometry. The mass spectrum revealed an isotopic enrichment of the propene greater than 70%, demonstrating that the majority of propene observed from the DIE of PE results from polymer chain degradation. [0408] We also tested the potential to conduct DIE on samples of post-consumer PE. The results of the DIE of these post-consumer samples are displayed in FIG.4. Substantial yields of propene were observed in all cases. Moreover, HDPE from a milk jug yielded 57% propene, which is only 20% lower than the yield from laboratory-grade HDPE with a similar degree of unsaturation, and LDPE food packaging generated over 50% yield of propene. These results show that a post-consumer product comprising HDPE or LDPE can be converted to propene by this type of chemical recycling. [0409] The time courses of reactions for degrading octadecene at 60 °C and degrading HDPE at 130 °C are displayed in FIG.5A and FIG.5B. These data revealed a lengthy induction period for the reaction of octadecene at 60 °C, presumably due to the multiple stages of catalyst activation necessary for the reaction to occur at an appreciable rate. After the initiation period, the reaction proceeded at a constant rate until substrate was depleted. The reaction of the unsaturated HDPE at 130 °C occurred with a shorter induction period despite the need to first cleave the internal alkenes of the unsaturated HDPE, and this reaction occurred at a constant rate up to 85% of the total conversion. Presumably the higher temperature diminishes the induction period. The linear formation of propene suggests that the process occurs by rate-determining reaction with the excess ethylene. [0410] Additional data we gathered on the degradation of PE by DIE point to future challenges. First, samples of LDPE consistently furnished propene in lower yields than HDPE of identical unsaturation. We hypothesized that the significant degree of branching in LDPE led to the formation of trisubstituted alkenes during IE, and these more hindered alkenes underwent slower isomerization or slower ethenolysis. To test this hypothesis, we synthesized several substituted olefins and subjected them to IE under conditions identical to those we used for the IE of 1-octadecene (FIG.5C). The IE of substrates 1a-1d demonstrate a clear trend of decreasing propene yield with increasing olefin substitution. [0411] Second, our experiments with laboratory-grade PE (see FIG.3B) showed that a high degree of unsaturation of PE chains was detrimental to the yield of IE. We hypothesized from this observation that a high degree of polymer unsaturation leads to dienes and polyenes that isomerize during the IE process to conjugated dienes that could poison the catalyst. Because there are multiple sites of unsaturation on each polymer chain, I-1 could isomerize such olefins to conjugated 1,3-dienes within the polymer, and such conjugated dienes could poison one or both catalysts. To test this hypothesis, we conducted IE on one α, ω-diene 1d (1,9-decadiene) and one conjugated diene 1e (1,3-tetradecadiene) (FIG.5D). These experiments showed that α-ω dienes separated by 6 methylene units (1e) formed propene in much higher yields than did 1,3- dienes. Consistent with our hypothesis, addition of a catalytic amounts of the I-1 to diene 1e without ethylene or the metathesis catalyst led to immediate formation of a black precipitate (FIG.5D). [0412] We assessed this hypothesis further by applying IE to poly(cyclooctene) (PCO). We synthesized PCO (M n= 5.3kDa, Đ=1.64) by ring-opening metathesis polymerization of cyclooctene (27). IE of this substrate furnished propene in significantly diminished yield, but IE of a partially hydrogenated PCO (28) (with an olefin content of 12.2% versus 25% for the original polymer) furnished propene in 38.5% yield (FIG.5E). We concluded from these data that the formation of 1,3-dienes in situ was responsible for the diminished yields of propene from the highly dehydrogenated polymers. [0413] Overall, we have utilized DIE to deconstruct laboratory-grade samples of HDPE to form the single alkene propene in up to 80% yield and to deconstruct HDPE from post-consumer products in yields approaching 60%. In addition to its use as a monomer for commodity plastics, propene is used to form multiple commodity chemicals, including acrylic acid, acrylonitrile, and cumene (28). Although propene is produced primarily as a byproduct of steam cracking or fluid catalytic cracking, the increasing demand for propene since the 1990s has caused it to be prepared “on-purpose” through methanol-to-olefins technology, propane dehydrogenation, or the conproportionation of butene and ethylene (29). This “on purpose” production is only expected to increase as increasing populations and standards of living heighten the demand for polypropylene. [0414] The constituent reactions of the DIE process we report on laboratory scale with homogeneous catalysts are closely related to reactions conducted on industrial scales with heterogeneous catalysts, and their combination draws analogies to the combination of reactions in the commodity-scale Shell Higher Olefin Process (SHOP) that forms long-chain alkenes from ethylene (29). The dehydrogenation of PE occurs with a homogeneous catalyst or with Pt/Zn supported on silica or Pt/Sn supported on alumina to yield dehydrogenated polyethylene with a level of unsaturation sufficient for the degradation of PE to propene. The olefin metathesis and olefin isomerization by which this degradation of the unsaturated polymer occurs are some of the most practiced industrial transformations, routinely performed on commodity scales with heterogeneous catalysts (30, 31). Thus, the eventual translation of such catalyst systems to DIE will allow the dehydrogenation and IE processes to be conducted in continuous flow with less ethylene and removing the propene formed. The separation of the propene product from the ethylene reactant also is conducted on industrial scale by various methods, including low- temperature and extractive distillation (32). Thus, this initial report charts a path by which a DIE sequence could render polyolefin waste a hydrocarbon feedstock to generate a commodity chemical for which the demand is comparable to the available supply of recovered polyolefins.
