We investigated the palladium-catalyzed [2?+?2?+?1] cycloaddition of aryl- and trifluoromethyl-group-substituted internal alkynes and carbon monoxide, and revealed that the PdBr2 effectively catalyzed the intended reaction. The PdBr2-catalyzed reaction smoothly proceeded and provided aryl- and trifluoromethyl-group-containing cyclopentadienone derivatives in up to 92% yield. 相似文献
The preparation of some hypervalent iodine reagents containing a transferable amino group derived from benzophenone imine derivatives is reported. The reagents can be readily prepared and stored as a bench‐stable solid, and were successfully used in the transition‐metal‐free oxidative amination of silyl ketene acetals to afford the corresponding α‐amino esters, the benzophenone imine moieties of which could be easily hydrolyzed, thereby leading to the formation of primary amines. 相似文献
The lithium salt of 2,6‐difluoro‐2′‐sulfobenzophenone was conveniently synthesized in one‐pot by reacting 2,6‐difluorophenyllithium with 2‐sulfobenzoic acid cyclic anhydride in THF at −70 °C whereafter the product crystallized out of solution. A poly(arylene ether) and a poly(arylene sulfide) were prepared by polycondensation reactions to demonstrate the reactivity and efficacy of this new monomer to produce sulfonated high‐molecular weight aromatic polymers for fuel cell proton‐exchange membranes. This work demonstrated that organolithium chemistry may offer versatile and straightforward pathways to new functional monomers with fluorine atoms activated for nucleophilic aromatic substitution reactions.
Topmost-surface-sensitive Si-2p photoelectron spectra of a clean Si(1 0 0)-2 × 1 surface have been measured using Si-2p photoelectron Si-L23VV Auger coincidence spectroscopy (Si-2p–Si-L23VV PEACS). The escape depth of the PEACS electrons is estimated to be ~1.2 Å. The results support the assignments of the Si up-atoms, the Si down-atoms, the Si 2nd-layer, and the Si bulk proposed in previous researches. The Si-2p component with a binding energy of ?0.23 eV relative to the bulk Si-2p3/2 peak, is shown to originate mainly from the topmost surface. Site selectivity of PEACS is indicated to be achieved to some degree by carefully selecting the kinetic energy of the Auger electrons. Since PEACS can be applied to any surface, the present study opens a new approach to identify PES components. 相似文献
A straightforward synthesis of 1,2‐dicyanoalkanes by reacting nitroalkenes with trimethylsilyl cyanide in the presence of tetrabutylammonium fluoride is described. The reaction proceeds through a tandem double Michael addition under mild conditions. Employing the hypervalent silicate generated from trimethylsilyl cyanide and tetrabutylammonium fluoride is essential for achieving this transformation. Mechanistic studies suggest that a small amount of water included in the reaction media plays a key role. This protocol is applicable to various types of substrates including electron‐rich and electron‐deficient aromatic nitroalkenes, and aliphatic nitroalkenes. Moreover, vinyl sulfones were found to be good alternatives, particularly for electron‐deficient nitroalkenes. The broad substrate scope and functional group tolerance of the reaction makes this approach a practical method for the synthesis of valuable 1,2‐dicyanoalkanes. 相似文献
Multicomponent supramolecular hydrogels are promising scaffolds for applications in biosensors and controlled drug release due to their designer stimulus responsiveness. To achieve rational construction of multicomponent supramolecular hydrogel systems, their in-depth structural analysis is essential but still challenging. Confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) has emerged as a powerful tool for structural analysis of multicomponent supramolecular hydrogels. CLSM imaging enables real-time observation of the hydrogels without the need of drying and/or freezing to elucidate their static and dynamic properties. Through multiple, selective fluorescent staining of materials of interest, multiple domains formed in supramolecular hydrogels (e. g. inorganic materials and self-sorting nanofibers) can also be visualized. CLSM and the related microscopic techniques will be indispensable to investigate complex life-inspired supramolecular chemical systems. 相似文献
Rings or arcs of fungus‐stimulated plant growth occur worldwide; these are commonly referred to as “fairy rings”. In 2010, we discovered 2‐azahypoxanthine (AHX), a compound responsible for the fairy‐ring phenomenon caused by fungus; AHX stimulated the growth of all the plants tested. Herein, we reveal the isolation and structure determination of a common metabolite of AHX in plants, 2‐aza‐8‐oxohypoxanthine (AOH). AHX is chemically synthesized from 5‐aminoimidazole‐4‐carboxamide (AICA), and AHX can be converted into AOH by xanthine oxidase. AICA is one of the members of the purine metabolic pathway in animals, plants, and microorganisms. However, further metabolism of AICA remains elusive. Based on these results and facts, we hypothesized that plants themselves produce AHX and AOH through a pathway similar to the chemical synthesis. Herein, we demonstrate the existence of endogenous AHX and AOH and a novel purine pathway to produce them in plants. 相似文献
