Well-defined ruthenium(II) phosphinous acid (PA) complexes enabled chemo-, site-, and diastereoselective C-H functionalization of arenes and alkenes with ample scope. The outstanding catalytic activity was reflected by catalyst loadings as low as 0.75 mol %, and the most step-economical access reported to date to angiotensin II receptor antagonist blockbuster drugs. Mechanistic studies indicated a kinetically relevant C-X cleavage by a single-electron transfer (SET)-type elementary process, and provided evidence for a PA-assisted C-H ruthenation step.

Target and Nontarget Analysis of Organophosphorus Flame Retardants and Plasticizers in a River Impacted by Industrial Activity in Eastern China.

Environ Sci Technol

December 2024

MOE Key Laboratory of Pollution Processes and Environmental Criteria, College of Environmental Science and Engineering, Nankai University, Tianjin 300350, China.

Industrial activities are a major source of organophosphorus flame retardants (OPFRs) and plasticizers in aquatic environments. This study investigated the distribution of 40 OPFRs in a river impacted by major industrial manufacturing plants in Eastern China by target analysis. Nontarget analysis using high-resolution mass spectrometry was further employed to identify novel organophosphorus compounds (NOPs).

Adipose tissue (AT) is a complex, multifunctional endocrine organ that plays a significant role in animal evolution and human disease. Profiling of the proteome, or the set of proteins produced by a cell or tissue at a given time, can be used to explore the myriad functions of adipose tissue and understand its role in health and disease. The main challenges of adipose tissue proteomics include the high lipid and low protein content of the tissue and association of many proteins with lipid droplets.

The desorption of conventional ligands from the surface of halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) often causes their structural instability and deterioration of the optoelectronic properties. To address this challenge, we present an approach of using a bidentate Lewis base ligand, namely, 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (DBPP), for the synthesis of CsPbBr NCs. The phosphine group of DBPP has a strong interaction with the PbBr precursor, forming a highly crystalline intermediate complex during the reaction.

The C-H arylation of 2-quinolinecarboxyamide bearing a C-Br bond at the -aryl moiety is carried out with a palladium catalyst. The reaction proceeds at the C-H bond on the pyridine ring adjacent to the amide group in the presence of 10 mol % Pd(OAc) at 110 °C to afford the cyclized product in 42% yield. The yield is improved to 94% when the reaction is performed with PPh as a ligand of palladium.

Sol-gel silica matrices singly doped with Sm and co-doped with ligands phenyl phosphinic acid (PPIA) and trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) were fabricated and studied for their structural and spectroscopic behaviour. Structural studies were done by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) absorption analysis whereas spectroscopic behaviour was studied by ultraviolet - visible (UV-Vis) absorption, photoluminescence (PL) excitation, emission and time-correlated decay analyses. XRD studies exhibit the amorphous nature of the samples and FTIR studies corroborate the presence of the ligands in the silica matrix.
