Metallaphotoredox⁃Catalyzed O⁃Arylation of Serine北大核心CSCD

A metallaphotoredox catalyzed hydroxyl aromatization of serine is developed to achieve rapid synthesis of aryl ethers of various serine derivatives. Under the catalytic system of ethylene glycol dimethyl ether nickel bromide （NiBr2 （dme））/4,4'-dimethoxy-2,2'-bipyridine/zinc powder and synergistic iridium photoredox catalysis, nickel is catalyzed and inserted into the C—Br bond, and then followed by transmetalation with the hydroxyl group of serine. The resulting Ni（Ⅱ）species are oxidized by the excited Ir（Ⅲ）species to a Ni（Ⅲ）intermediate. This intermediate is unstable and reductive elimination takes place rapidly to give the target product O-arylated serine in the yields from 65% to 39%. Through a metallaphotoredox catalysis strategy,the reaction features mild,efficient,clean and broad scope of substrate, providing a new way for the synthesis of various serine derivatives with medicinal value. © 2022, Science Press (China).

Cross-dehydrogenative Coupling of N-Aryl Tetrahydroisoquinolines Catalyzed by an Anthraquinone-containing Polymeric Photosensitizer

This work reports the photocatalytic application of an anthraquinone-containing polymeric photosensitizer (AQ-PHEMA) in the visible light-induced cross - dehydrogenative-coupling of N-aryl tetrahydroisoquinolines with several nucleophiles, including nitromethane, 1-methyl-2-alkyl ketone and dialkyl (aryl) phosphine oxide. The results revealed that the reaction could be catalyzed by AQ-PHEMA efficiently to afford a series of 1-substituted-2-aryl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinolines in good to excellent yields with nice substrate tolerance under aerobic conditions at room temperature. The practical application potential was also showcased by a gram-scale synthesis. More importantly, the utilization of AQ-PHEMA as a heterogeneous photosensitizer also showed nice recyclability and reusability of the catalyst, whereas AQ-PHEMA can be easily separated and reused for at least 8 times without significant loss of photocatalytic activity.     

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide-Based Processes in Photocatalytic Applications

Conventional methods generally used to synthesize heterogeneous photocatalysts have some drawbacks, mainly the difficult control/preservation of catalysts’ morphology, size or structure, which strongly affect the photocatalytic activity. Supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO₂)-assisted techniques have recently been shown to be a promising approach to overcome these limitations, which are still a challenge. In addition, compared to traditional methods, these innovative techniques permit the synthesis of high-performance photocatalysts by reducing the use of toxic and polluting solvents and, consequently, the environmental impact of long-term catalyst preparation. Specifically, the versatility of scCO₂ allows to prepare catalysts with different structures (e.g., nanoparticles or metal-loaded supports) by several supercritical processes for the photocatalytic degradation of various compounds. This is the first updated review on the use of scCO₂-assisted techniques for photocatalytic applications. We hope this review provides useful information on different approaches and future perspectives.

Recent advances in BiOBr-based photocatalysts for environmental remediation

The efficient utilization of solar energy through photocatalysis is ideal for solving environmental issues and the development sustainable future. BiOBr-based semiconductors possess unique narrowed bandgaps and layered structures, thereby widely studied as photocatalysts for environmental remediation.

Radical C−H Trifluoromethoxylation of (Hetero)arenes with Bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide

Trifluoromethoxylated (hetero)arenes are of great interest for several disciplines, especially in agro- and medicinal chemistry. Radical C−H trifluoromethoxylation of (hetero)arenes represents an attractive approach to prepare such compounds, but the high cost and low atom economy of existing ^. OCF₃ radical sources make them unsuitable for the large-scale synthesis of trifluoromethoxylated building blocks. Herein, we introduce bis(trifluoromethyl)peroxide (BTMP, CF₃OOCF₃) as a practical and efficient trifluoromethoxylating reagent that is easily accessible from inexpensive bulk chemicals. Using either visible light photoredox or TEMPO catalysis, trifluoromethoxylated arenes could be prepared in good yields under mild conditions directly from unactivated aromatics. Moreover, TEMPO catalysis allowed for the one-step synthesis of valuable pyridine derivatives, which have been previously prepared via multi-step approaches.
