The ligand HL has been built by linking an imidazole moiety to the 5-position of isophthalic acid. It forms two types of porous frameworks, {[Zn(L)]·2DMF·2HO} (1) and {[(CH)NH][Zn(L)(HO)PO]·2DMF} (2). 1 is a porous neutral framework and has rtl rutile 3,6-conn topology, while 2 is an organo-metallophosphate anionic porous framework with double-walled hexagonal channels. Framework 1' (desolvated) exhibits moderate CO adsorption (58 cc g at 273 K, 1 bar), whereas 2' (desolvated) shows a microporous nature with a high adsorption of CO (111.7 cc g or 22 wt % at 273 K, 1 bar). Interestingly, this adsorbed CO could be converted very efficiently to cyclic carbonates under mild conditions using 2' as the catalyst in the presence of tetrabutylammonium bromide as the cocatalyst. The presence of open metal sites in 2' makes it an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for solvent-free three-component Strecker reaction using various aldehydes/ketones together with amines and trimethylsilyl cyanide in high yields at room temperature. The straightforward experimental and product isolation procedure along with easy recovery and reusability of the catalyst provided an attractive route for the synthesis of α-amino nitriles.

In this research, with the Green Chemistry approach, to load more sulfonic acid active sites on catalyst surfaces, a nanocomposite material based on core-shell magnetite coated with vinyl silane and a sulfonated polymeric brush-like structure is designed and synthesized as a new class of efficient solid acid catalysts, referred to as FeO@VS-APS brush solid acid. The synthesized catalyst was comprehensively characterized by a range of instrumental techniques, including XRD, SEM, TEM, FT-IR, EDX, TGA, and VSM. The activity of the catalyst was evaluated in Biginelli, Strecker, and esterification reactions.

As an indispensable member of the reticular material family, metal-carbon-based organometallic frameworks (OMFs) remain largely underexplored, and no chiral OMFs (COMFs) have been reported thus far. Herein, we first report the construction of COMFs from a Pd-isocyanide OMF via nucleophilic addition to the Pd-isocyanide moiety with optically pure amines. The obtained Pd-bis(acyclic diaminocarbene) (Pd-BADC)-derived chiral OMFs display excellent applicability and can be reusable chiral catalysts to highly promote asymmetric Strecker and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions in a heterogeneous way.

Amide bond formation is fundamental in nature and is widely used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other valuable products. Current methods for amide synthesis are often step and atom inefficient, requiring the use of protecting groups, deleterious reagents and organic solvents that create significant waste. The development of cleaner and more efficient catalytic methods for amide synthesis remains an urgent unmet need.

This study explores the role of polyphenols in preventing oxidative deterioration of wine aroma. Wine models containing polyphenols extracted from grapes were fortified with delphinidin-3G (DELF) or catechin (CAT), and oxidized. DELF increased oxygen consumption rates (OCRs) and reduced the Strecker aldehydes (SAs) formation, while CAT decreased OCRs and increased SAs.
