We map the photochemical reactivity of two chromophores-a pyrene-chalcone and a methylene blue protected amine-from a one-pot reaction mixture based on their dynamic absorptivity changes upon light exposure, constructing a dual action plot. We employ the action plot data to determine a pathlength-independent λ-orthogonality window, allowing the orthogonal folding of distinct polymer chains into single chain nano-particles (SCNPs) from the same reaction mixture.

At a time when increasing attention is paid to sustainability in chemistry, levulinic acid (LA) is one of the most important platform chemicals for the goal of overcoming our dependence on fossil raw materials. In this work, a new catalytic route for the effective utilization of these humin byproducts, enabling a cyclic synthesis of LA using formic acid (FA) as organocatalyst is proposed. Selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) of humins using the H5PV2Mo10O40 (HPA-2) polyoxometalate (POM) catalyst produces FA that can be isolated from the aqueous reaction mixture by using nanofiltration membranes accompanied by a complete catalyst recycling (>99%).

Chemoselectivity in Pd-Based Dyotropic Rearrangement: Development and Application in Total Synthesis of Pheromones.

J Am Chem Soc

In the dyotropic rearrangement of molecules with semiflexible structures, characterized by a freely rotating static C-C bond, the formation of a mixture of products is common due to the coexistence of several energetically comparable conformers. Herein, we report that it is possible to modulate the shifting groups by adjusting the metal's coordination sphere in Pd-based dyotropic rearrangement. In the presence of a catalytic amount of Pd(II) salt, the reaction of γ-hydroxyalkenes or γ,δ-dihydroxyalkenes with Selectfluor affords fluorinated tetrahydropyranols or 6,8-dioxabicyclo[3.

Ionic Strength-Induced Compartmentalization for Nanogel-in-Microgel Colloids.

Compartmentalization is crucial for control over complex biological cascade reactions. In microgels, the formation of discrete compartments allows for simultaneous uptake and orthogonal release of physicochemically distinct drugs, among others. However, many state-of-the-art approaches yielding compartmentalized microgels require the use of specific, though not always biocompatible, components and temperatures well above the physiological range, which may damage possible biological cargo.

A magnetic-biopolymer composite of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), designated as FeO@CMC, was synthesized featuring remarkable stability and an active surface with a green biosynthetic method. This composite was engineered to serve as a substrate for stabilizing silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with enhanced functional properties. The catalytic efficacy of the nanocatalyst, incorporating Ag NPs at concentrations of 3%, 7%, and 10%, was evaluated for the reduction of the toxic compound 4-nitrophenol to the beneficial 4-aminophenol.

The protonolysis and redox reactivity of a Ce(IV) carbonate complex supported by the Kläui tripodal ligand [(η-CH)Co{P(O)(OEt)}] (L) have been studied. Whereas treatment of [Ce(L)(CO)] () with RCOH afforded [Ce(L)(RCO)] ( = Me (), Ph (), 2-NOCH ()), the reaction of with PhCHCOH resulted in formation of a mixture of Ce(IV) () and Ce(III) () carboxylate species. In benzene in the dark, was slowly converted into via Ce(IV)-O(carboxylate) homolysis.
