[chemical reaction: see text]. A derivative of pancratistatin having no oxygenation in the aromatic ring was synthesized by a new strategy based on the cobalt-catalyzed cyclotrimerization of acetylenes as a prelude to diversity-oriented synthesis of further analogues.

Carbon nanomaterials composed of curved aromatics, such as carbon nanotubes, are difficult to selectively synthesize and modify precisely. Smaller molecular fragments of curved nanomaterials, such as cycloparaphenylenes, benefit from the precision of bottom-up synthesis, however, efforts to expand the curved molecular framework into even larger structures often rely on restrictive early stage synthetic strategies or difficult to control polymerizations. In this work we report a high yielding, strain-promoted, late-stage modification of a series of [ + 1]CPPs.

We introduce the first mechanochemical cyclotrimerization of nitriles, a facile strategy for synthesizing triazine-containing molecules and materials, overcoming challenges related to carbonization and solubility. Conducting this solid-state approach in a mixer ball mill with 4-Methylbenzonitrile, we synthesize Tris(4-methylphenyl)-1,3,5-triazine quantitatively in as little as 90 minutes. Just as fast, this mechanochemical method facilitates the synthesis of the covalent triazine framework CTF-1 using 1,4 Dicyanobenzene.

Here, an Ir/Zn-cocatalyzed atroposelective [2+2+2] cycloaddition of 1,6-diynes and ynamines was developed, forging various functionalized C─N axially chiral indoles and pyrroles in generally good to excellent yields (up to 99%), excellent chemoselectivities, and high enantioselectivities (up to 98% enantiomeric excess) with wide substrate scope. This cocatalyzed strategy not only provided an alternative promising and reliable way for asymmetric alkyne [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization in an easy handle but also settled the issues of previous [Rh(COD)]BF-catalyzed system on the construction of C─N axial chirality such as complex operations, limited substrate scope, and low efficiency. In addition, control experiments and theoretical calculations disclosed that Zn(OTf) markedly reduced the barrier of migration insertion to significantly increase reaction efficiency, which was distinctly different from previous work on the Lewis acid for improving reaction yield through accelerating oxidative addition and reductive elimination.

Proton-conducting materials are essential to the emerging hydrogen economy. Covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs) are promising proton-conducting materials at high temperatures but need more effective sites to strengthen interaction for proton carriers. However, their construction and design in a concise condition are still challenges.

The polymerization property of aromatic polynitroso compounds could be used to create azodioxy porous networks with possible application for the adsorption of CO, the main greenhouse gas. Herein, we report the synthesis and characterization of new aromatic polynitroso compounds, with -nitroso groups attached to the triphenylbenzene, triphenylpyridine, triphenyltriazine and triphenylamine moiety. The synthesis of the pyridine-based trinitroso compound was performed by reduction of the corresponding trinitro derivative to -arylhydroxylamine followed by oxidation to the trinitroso product.
