Published: February 2020

Lewis base/Brønsted acid cocatalysis for electrophilic thiocyanation of olefins is reported. Using a combination of triphenylphosphine selenide and diphenyl phosphate as a catalyst, a wide range of unsaturated amides and thioamides underwent thiocyanation to furnish thiocyanated thiazoline and oxazoline derivatives in high yields (up to 97%).

Pd(0)/Pd(II) Electromerism Triggered by Lewis Base Coordination to a Redox-Active Silicon Z-Type Ligand.

Electromerism (aka. valence tautomerism) corresponds to the switching of electronic distributions between redox-active ligands and central elements. While this phenomenon is well established for several transition metals, the Pd(0)/Pd(II) couple could not yet be involved due to the high energy of the Pd(0) state.

DEK::AFF2 fusion nonkeratinizing squamous cell carcinoma (NKSCC) is an emerging entity in the sinonasal tract, temporal bone, and skull base. However, the clinical behavior of these tumors has not been well studied. Here, we report the largest cohort of DEK::AFF2 carcinomas to determine if morphology, mitotic rate, and/or Ki-67 IHC are associated with patient outcomes, including a comparison with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated and independent patients.

Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) is a central enzyme in the base excision repair (BER) pathway. APE1 catalyzes incision of the phosphodiester linkage on the 5'-side of apurinic/apyrimidinic (AP) sites during the repair of damaged nucleobases in cellular DNA. Inhibition of this enzyme can potentiate the action of DNA-damaging chemotherapeutic agents.

Photocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is pivotal for sustainable energy systems yet lacks high-performance catalysts capable of strong visible light absorption, robust charge dynamics, fast reaction kinetics, and high oxidation capability. Herein, we report the multiscale optimization of carbon nitride through the construction of porous curled carbon nitride nanosheets (CNA-B30) incorporating boron center/cyano group Lewis acid-base pairs (LABPs). The unique chemical and structural features of CNA-B30 extended the photoabsorption edges of π → π* and n → π* electronic transitions to 470 nm and 715 nm, respectively.

A mixed-ligand-based thermo-chemically robust and undulated metal-organic framework (MOF) is developed that embraces carboxamide moiety-grafted porous channels and activation-induced generation of open-metal site (OMS). The guest-free MOF acts as an outstanding heterogeneous catalyst in Hantzsch condensation for electronically assorted substrates with low catalyst loading and short duration under greener conditions than the reported materials. Besides Lewis acidic OMS, the carboxamide group activates the substrate via two-point hydrogen bonding, highlighting the effectiveness of custom-made functionalities in this multi-component reaction.
