Article Abstract

Ni catalyst promotes the three-component coupling reaction of vinyloxacyclopropane, alkyne, and dimethylzinc to provide 2,5-heptadienyl alcohol in high yields. Vinylcyclopropane also participates in a similar three-component coupling reaction to afford dimethyl (α-heptadienyl)malonate with excellent E-stereoselectivity.

The Lewis acid-catalyzed coupling of alkenes and aldehydes presents a modern, versatile synthetic alternative to classical carbonyl addition chemistry, offering exceptional regio- and stereoselectivity. In this work, we present a comprehensive computational investigation into the reaction mechanism of this transformation. Our findings confirm the occurrence of an enantioselective trans-annular [1,5]-hydride shift step and demonstrate that the enantioselectivity of the reaction arises predominantly from steric clashes between functional groups in the cyclization step.

Regioselective Suzuki-Miyarua Cross-Coupling for Substituted 2,4-Dibromopyridines Catalyzed by -Symmetric Tripalladium Clusters.

Multipalladium clusters possess peculiar structures and synergistic effects for reactivity and selectivity. Herein, -symmetric tripalladium clusters (, 0.5 mol %) afford C-regioselective SMCC of 2,4-dibromopyridine with phenylboronic acids or pinacol esters (C:C up to 98:1), in contrast to Pd(OAc) in ligand-free conditions.

In order to examine the effects of the fused heterole on the electronic properties of aromatic and antiaromatic smaragdyrins, 2,3-thiophene- and 2,3-indole-fused [20]smaragdyrins were synthesized by Suzuki-Miyaura coupling and subsequent oxidative fusion reaction, and were reduced with NaBH4 to the corresponding [22]smaragdyrins. Fused-thiophene- and fused-pyrrole-bridged [20]- and [22]smaragdyrin dimers were also synthesized in the similar manner. The installed fused heteroles mitigate the paratropic ring current of the [20]smaragdyrin but exert only minor effects on the diatropic ring current of the [22]smaragdyrin.

Lignin degradation by biocatalysts is a key strategy to develop a plant-based sustainable carbon economy and thus alleviate global climate change. This process involves synergy between ligninases and auxiliary enzymes. However, auxiliary enzymes within secretomes, which are composed of thousands of enzymes, remain enigmatic, although several ligninolytic enzymes have been well characterized.

The photocatalytic conversion of CO into products such as CH and CH poses a significant challenge due to the lengthy reaction steps and the high energy barrier involved. In this study, both benzothiadiazole (BTD) and hydroxyl groups (-OH) are introduced into cobalt-based polymerized porphyrinic network (PPN) through a C-C coupling reaction. This modification of orbital energy levels that strengthens the ability of gain electrons and facilitates the charge transfer in PPN.
