Pd0-Catalyzed Asymmetric Carbonitratation Reaction Featuring an H-Bonding-Driven Alkyl−PdII−ONO2 Reductive Elimination

Reductive elimination of alkyl−Pd^II−O is a synthetically useful yet underdeveloped elementary reaction. Here we report that the combination of an H-bonding donor [PyH][BF₄] and AgNO₃ additive under toluene/H₂O biphasic system can enable such elementary step to form alkyl nitrate. This results in the Pd⁰-catalyzed asymmetric carbonitratations of (Z)-1-iodo-1,6-dienes with (R)-BINAP as the chiral ligand, affording alkyl nitrates up to 96 % ee. Mechanistic studies disclose that the reaction consists of oxidative addition of Pd⁰ catalyst to vinyl iodide, anion ligand exchange between I⁻ and NO₃⁻, alkene insertion and S_N2-type alkyl−Pd^II−ONO₂ reductive elimination. Evidences suggest that H-bonding interaction of PyH⋅⋅⋅ONO₂ can facilitate dissociation of O₂NO⁻ ligand from the alkyl−Pd^II−ONO₂ species, thus enabling the challenging alkyl−Pd^II−ONO₂ reductive elimination to be feasible.     

电场下离子型聚合物复合囊泡结构变化的分子动力学模拟

利用粗粒化分子动力学模拟研究了电场作用下离子型聚合物复合囊泡形变与破裂的过程.定量分析了囊泡破裂过程中的结构变化,包括囊泡的形变程度、破裂速度、组分分布以及破裂后的结构.研究表明,电场强度较弱时,囊泡表面所吸附的聚电解质首先脱落,囊泡由球形结构转变为椭球结构.随着电场强度增大,离聚物的离子侧基发生重新排布,囊泡表面电荷的有序结构被破坏,导致囊泡的结构无法维持而破裂,囊泡塌缩,分裂形成离聚物团簇,并进一步破裂为小尺寸的离聚物聚集体,均匀分散于溶液中.本文利用分子动力学模拟明确了电场中离子型高分子复合囊泡破裂过程的分子机理,为药物释放技术的优化及发展提供了理论支持.

Visible Light Induced Copper-Catalyzed Enantioselective Deaminative Arylation of Amino Acid Derivatives Assisted by Phenol

The exploration of value-added conversions of naturally abundant amino acids has received considerable attention from the synthetic community. Compared with the well-established asymmetric decarboxylative transformation, the asymmetric deaminative transformation of amino acids still remains a formidable challenge, mainly due to the lack of effective strategies for the C−N bond activation and the potential incompatibility with chiral catalysts. Here, we disclose a photoinduced Cu-catalyzed asymmetric deaminative coupling reaction of amino acids with arylboronic acids. This new protocol provides a series of significant chiral phenylacetamides in generally good yields and excellent stereoselectivity under mild and green conditions (42–85 % yields, up to 97 % ee). Experimental investigations and theoretical calculations were performed to reveal the crucial role of additional phenols in improving catalytic efficiency and enantiocontrol.     

Photosynthesis of Benzonitriles on BiOBr Nanosheets Promoted by Vacancy Associates

Photocatalytic organic functionalization reactions represent a green, cost-effective, and sustainable synthesis route for value-added chemicals. However, heterogeneous photocatalysis is inefficient in directly activating ammonia molecules for the production of high-value-added nitrogenous organic products when compared with oxygen activation in the formation of related oxygenated compounds. In this study, we report the heterogeneous photosynthesis of benzonitriles by the ammoxidation of benzyl alcohols (99 % conversion, 93 % selectivity) promoted using BiOBr nanosheets with surface vacancy associates. In contrast, the main reaction of catalysts with other types of vacancy sites is the oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde or benzoic acid. Experimental measurements and theoretical calculations have demonstrated a specificity of vacancy type with respect to product selectivity, which arises from the adsorption and activation of NH₃ and O₂ that is required to promote subsequent C−N coupling and oxidation to nitrile. This study provides a better understanding of the role of vacancies as catalytic sites in heterogeneous photocatalysis.
