This paper describes the synthesis and reactivity of [η-1,3-(MeSi)CH]U(P-2,4,6-PrCH)(OPMe) (6) which is accessible from a ligand exchange reaction between [η-1,3-(MeSi)CH]U(P-2,4,6-PrCH)(OPPh) (2) and MePO at ambient temperature. Phosphinidene 6 exhibits no reactivity towards internal alkynes, but readily reacts with various hetero-unsaturated molecules such as isothiocyanates, aldehydes, nitriles, isonitriles, and organic azides, forming uranium sulfido, oxido, imido, and uranaheterocyclic compounds. Nevertheless, with the bidentate -dicyanobenzene -CH(CN) the zwitterionic species [η-1,3-(MeSi)CH]U[NHC(N){CHCP(2,4,6-PrCH)CHPMeO}] (13) is isolated in good yield. Moreover, 6 converts with PhS to the uranium(III) phenylthiolate compound [η-1,3-(MeSi)CH]USPh(OPMe) (7) in good isolated yield. Furthermore, the influence of the Lewis base on the reactivity of the uranium phosphinidene metallocenes has also been evaluated.

We report the synthesis and characterization of an iron(III)-hydroperoxo complex generated from salicylate-assisted dioxygen activation by a cation-liganded iron(II) complex. Spectroscopic and theoretical data revealed stabilization of the end-on hydroperoxo ligand, and mechanistic insights, including a "V-shaped" Hammett plot, were confirmed by conducting oxygen atom transfer and proton-coupled electron transfer reactions.

Synthesis and Anticancer Studies of Pt(II) Complex Derived from 4-Phenylthiosemicarbazone.

Chem Biodivers

Guangxi Science and Technology Normal University, School of food biochemical engineering, Tiebei road 966, 546199, Laibin, CHINA.

Although cisplatin is widely used as a first-line chemotherapy agent, it has significant side effects. Herein, we synthesized a Pt(II) complex (Pt1) derived from o-vanillin-4-phenylthiosemicarbazone ligand, and confirmed its crystal structure by X-ray crystallography. Complex Pt1 exhibited potent anticancer activity against various tested cancer cell lines, with particular efficacy against HepG-2 cells.

All-carbon quaternary and tertiary stereocenters connected at the C2-position of functionalizable C3-alkylated indole nucleus are commonly occurring frameworks found in many indole alkaloids of medicinal importance. Their direct access is scarcely reported, a long-standing problem, and developing a unique yet simple method can pave the pathway to an entirely different retrosynthetic route for the total synthesis of these alkaloids. Herein, this problem is addressed by developing an unprecedented branch-selective allylation strategy employing a broad range of structurally and electronically different 3-alkenyl-indoles and allylboronic acids.

HPO promoted reactions of thioamides with 2-substituted benzyl alcohols.

Org Biomol Chem

January 2025

Department of Chemistry, University of Calcutta, 92, A. P. C. Road, Kolkata - 700 009, West Bengal, India.

In this study, we have investigated the reactivity of thioamides with alcohols by utilizing HPO as a low-toxicity, cost-effective Brønsted acid catalyst. This report includes a methodology for the synthesis of thioesters from thioamides and 2-hydroxyaryl alcohols. Thioesters are emerging as a notable class of organic molecules due to their biological relevance, extensive use in drug discovery, and industrial applications.

Experimental and Computational Synthesis of TiO Sol-Gel Coatings.

Langmuir

January 2025

Department of Physical Chemistry and Materials Science, Budapest University of Technology and Economics, Műegyetem rkp. 3, 1111 Budapest, Hungary.

During the experimental formation of sol-gel coatings, the colloid dispersions go through a drying process, and the structure of the coatings is formed as a result of complex chemical, colloidal, and capillary interactions. While computer simulations provide guidelines to tune and even design the nanomaterials synthesis, simulations of coating structure formation are hitherto unknown in the literature. Based on real experiments, we establish here a ReaxFF reactive force field-based molecular dynamics simulation protocol in order to investigate and determine the role of the experimental conditions on the pore structure formation in the coatings.
