A variety of allylic, benzylic, primary, and secondary saturated alcohols have been converted into the corresponding iodides using NaI supported on KSF clay. Selective conversion of allylic and benzylic alcohols in the presence of primary and secondary saturated alcohols has also been demonstrated.     

Direct Reductive Amination of Aldehydes and Ketones with 2,4-Ionene-Based Borohydride Exchange Resin as a Novel Polymer-Supported Reducing Agent

Direct reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones were accomplished efficiently using high-capacity, ionene-based, polymer-supported borohydride reagent in isopropyl alcohol at reflux under neutral conditions. The reagent is easily prepared by mixing aqueous solution of 2,4-ionene bromide with an alkaline solution of sodium borohydride at room temperature. The generality of reaction was established using both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes, ketones, and amines.

A simple and efficient method for the chemoselective N-Boc protection of the amine moiety in a variety of compounds is described using di-tert-butyl dicarbonate and guanidine hydrochloride as an organocatalyst in ethanol at 35-40 °C. Selective mono-N-Boc protection of diamines and chemoselective protection of hydroxylamines without formation of any side products is achieved. Amino acids and peptides are N-Boc protected efficiently in excellent yields under convenient reaction conditions.     

Principles of Aggregation‐Induced Emission: Design of Deactivation Pathways for Advanced AIEgens and Applications

Twenty years ago, the concept of aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) was proposed, and this unique luminescent property has attracted scientific interest ever since. However, AIE denominates only the phenomenon, while the details of its underlying guiding principles remain to be elucidated. This minireview discusses the basic principles of AIE based on our previous mechanistic study of the photophysical behavior of 9,10‐bis(N,N‐dialkylamino)anthracene ( BDAA ) and the corresponding mechanistic analysis by quantum chemical calculations. BDAA comprises an anthracene core and small electron donors, which allows the quantum chemical aspects of AIE to be discussed. The key factor for AIE is the control over the non‐radiative decay (deactivation) pathway, which can be visualized by considering the conical intersection (CI) on a potential energy surface. Controlling the conical intersection (CI) on the potential energy surface enables the separate formation of fluorescent (CI:high) and non‐fluorescent (CI:low) molecules [control of conical intersection accessibility ( CCIA )]. The novelty and originality of AIE in the field of photochemistry lies in the creation of functionality by design and in the active control over deactivation pathways. Moreover, we provide a new design strategy for AIE luminogens (AIEgens) and discuss selected examples.

Cinnamylindoline derivatives: synthesis and factor Xa (FXa) inhibitory activities

A series of cinnamylindoline derivatives were synthesized, and their factor Xa (FXa) inhibitory activities and selectivity over trypsin were evaluated. Among them, some novel derivatives showed potent FXa inhibitory activities and good selectivity over trypsin. Especially, (E)-2-{5-[1-(acetimidoyl)piperidin-4-yloxy]-2-[2-(5-amidino-2-hydroxyphenyl)ethen-1-yl]indolin-1-ylsulfonyl}acetic acid (22f) having 2-hydroxycinnamyl moiety exhibited the most potent FXa inhibitory activity in vitro. Furthermore, 22f also exhibited potent anticoagulant activities in vitro.
