Gold‐Catalyzed Tandem Cycloisomerization–Halogenation of Chiral Homopropargyl Sulfonamides

Two new gold‐catalyzed tandem cycloisomerization–halogenation reactions of chiral homopropargyl sulfonamides have been developed. Various enantioenriched 3,3‐diiodopyrrolidin‐2‐ols and 3‐fluoropyrrolidin‐2‐ols were obtained in moderate‐to‐good yields with excellent enantio‐ and diastereoselectivity.     

An Atomically Precise Au10Ag2 Nanocluster with Red–Near‐IR Dual Emission

A red–near‐IR dual‐emissive nanocluster with the composition [Au₁₀Ag₂(2‐py?C≡C)₃(dppy)₆](BF₄)₅ ( 1 ; 2‐py?C≡C is 2‐pyridylethynyl, dppy=2‐pyridyldiphenylphosphine) has been synthesized. Single‐crystal X‐ray structural analysis reveals that 1 has a trigonal bipyramidal Au₁₀Ag₂ core that contains a planar Au₄(2‐py?C≡C)₃ unit sandwiched by two Au₃Ag(dppy)₃ motifs. Cluster 1 shows intense red–NIR dual emission in solution. The visible emission originates from metal‐to‐ligand charge transfer (MLCT) from silver atoms to phosphine ligands in the Au₃Ag(dppy)₃ motifs, and the intense NIR emission is associated with the participation of 2‐pyridylethynyl in the frontier orbitals of the cluster, which is confirmed by a time‐dependent density functional theory (TD‐DFT) calculation.     

A Hexagonal Covalent Porphyrin Framework as an Efficient Support for Gold Nanoparticles toward Catalytic Reduction of 4‐Nitrophenol

A hexagonal porphyrin‐based porous organic polymer, namely, CPF‐1, was constructed by 3+2 ketoenamine condensation of the C₂‐symmetric porphyrin diamine 5,15‐bis(4‐aminophenyl)‐10,20‐diphenylporphyrin and 1,3,5‐triformylphloroglucinol. This material exhibits permanent porosity and excellent thermal and chemical stability. CPF‐1 can be employed as a superior supporting substrate to immobilize Au nanoparticles (NPs) as a result of the strong interactions between Au NPs and the CPF support. An Au@CPF‐1 hybrid was synthesized by an interfacial solution infiltration method with NaBH₄ as reducing agent. Au NPs (5 nm) grew on CPF‐1 and were distributed without aggregation. Moreover, Au@CPF‐1 exhibits superior catalytic activity compared to many other reported Au‐based catalysts for the reduction of 4‐nitrophenol in the presence of NaBH₄. In addition, Au@CPF‐1 has excellent stability and recyclability, and it can be reused for three successive reaction cycles without loss of activity. The dense distribution of phenyl rings on the channel walls of the CPF support can reasonably be regarded as the active sites that adsorb the 4‐nitrophenol molecule through hydrogen‐bonding and C?H ??? π interactions, as was confirmed by the X‐ray structure of model compound DAPP‐Benz.     

A Gold(I)‐Catalyzed Domino Coupling of Alcohols with Allenes Enables the Synthesis of Highly Substituted Indenes

The reaction of aryl‐substituted allenes with alcohols under gold catalysis led to highly substituted indenes in good yields, with low catalyst loading and under mild conditions. During this domino transformation, two C?C bonds are formed with water as the only byproduct.
