A selective N-arylation of cyclic amides and amines in DMF and water, respectively, catalysed by Cu(II) /Al2 O3 has been achieved. This protocol has been employed for the synthesis of a library of arenes bearing a cyclic amide and an amine moiety at two ends, including a few scaffolds of therapeutic importance. The mechanism has been established based on detailed electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) studies of the catalyst at different stages of the reaction. The Cu(II) /Al2 O3 catalyst was recovered and recycled for subsequent reactions.

The C2- or C3-selective direct C-H arylation of nonsubstituted 1-pyrrole with aryl chlorides/nonaflates was achieved using catalysts derived from palladium and appropriate phosphine ligands. The site selectivity of the arylation can be switched by changing the ligands, and the C3-selective arylation of nonsubstituted 1-pyrrole was realized for the first time. BuOLi played an important role in suppressing N-arylation and accelerating C2- or C3-arylation.

The dsDNA-selective fluorescent-dye-based DNA damage assay was developed for DNA-encoded library (DEL) synthesis. For the various DEL synthesis conditions, the assay was validated through cross-checking with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis, and the fact was confirmed that the usage of a specific ratio of organic solvent can critically induce DNA damage. Also, the applicability of the assay was confirmed through the screening of the DNA-damaging condition of the on-DNA amide coupling reaction and Pd-catalyzed on-DNA -arylation reaction.

We report the development of an azanide (NH) surrogate which enables the facile conversion of electron-deficient (hetero)aryl halides into primary N-aryl amines under transition-metal-free conditions. The designed amidine reagent is easy to prepare, bench stable, and undergoes facile N-arylation under basic conditions at 40 °C. Intermediate N-aryl amidines are readily cleaved to form N-aryl amines in situ through hydrolysis or base-promoted elimination.

We disclose herein our evaluation of competitive (hetero)aryl-X (X: Br>Cl>OTf) reactivity preferences in bisphosphine/Ni-catalyzed C-N cross-coupling catalysis, using furfurylamine as a prototypical nucleophile, and employing DalPhos and DPPF as representative ancillary ligands with established efficacy. Beyond this general (pseudo)halide ranking, other intriguing structure-reactivity trends were noted experimentally, including the unexpected observation that bulky alkyl (e. g.

The ability to correlate the structure of a molecule with its properties is the key to the rational and accelerated design of new functional compounds and materials. Taking photoswitches as an example, the thermal stability of the metastable state is a crucial property that dictates their application in molecular systems. Indigos have recently emerged as an attractive motif for designing photoswitchable molecules due to their red-light addressability, which can be advantageous in biomedical and material applications.
