A series of planar aryl-substituted bis(imino)pyridine cobalt azide complexes were prepared and evaluated as synthetic precursors for the corresponding cobalt nitrido compounds. Thermolysis or photolysis of two examples resulted in intramolecular C-H activation of the benzylic positions of the aryl substituents. For the mesityl-substituted compound, C-H activation by the putative nitride resulted in formation of a neutral imine ligand and modification of the chelate by hydrogen transfer to the imine carbon.

This review highlights significant advances in iron-catalyzed cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC), a method pivotal for forming carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds directly from C-H bonds. This technique uses iron-a naturally abundant, inexpensive, and environmentally benign transition metal-as a catalyst to facilitate the coupling of two unfunctionalized C-H bonds. This method stands out for avoiding pre-functionalized substrates, reducing both waste and cost in organic synthesis.

Orthopalladated derivatives from substituted phenylglycines [Pd(μ-Cl)(CHRC(R)(R)N(R)] () react with halogenating reagents (PhICl, Br, I) () to give the corresponding o-halogenated amino acids CH(X)RC(R)(R)N(R) (). The reaction is general and tolerates a variety of functional groups (R to R) at the aryl ring, the Cα, and the N atom. On the other hand, the reaction of [Pd(μ-Cl)(CHRC(R)(R)N(R)] () with PhI(OAc) in the presence of a variety of alcohols ROH () gives the o-alkoxylated phenylglycines CH(OR)RC(R)(R)N(R) (), also as a general process.

Molybdenum (Mo) is widely used as a micronutrient fertilizer to improve plant growth and soil quality. However, the interactions between cell wall biosynthesis and molybdenum have not been explored sufficiently. This study thoroughly investigated the regulatory effects of different concentrations of Mo on tobacco cell wall biosynthesis from physiological and metabolomic aspects.

Chloroanilines represent a class of persistent and highly toxic environmental pollutants, posing significant challenges for green remediation strategies. While P450BM3 monooxygenases are renowned for their ability to catalyze the monooxidation of inert C-H bonds, costly NAD(P)H and complex electron transport systems required for P450BM3 catalysis limit their practical applications. This study pioneers the development of innovative artificial biocatalysts by strategically engineering the active site of P450BM3.
