Monotrifluoroacetoxyborane-amines, prepared by treating borane-amines with trifluoroacetic acid, have been shown to be efficient reagents for a one-pot, tandem reductive amination/alkylation-cycloamidation of keto or amino acids to achieve the synthesis of 5-aryl or 5-methyl pyrrolidin-2-ones and 6-aryl or 6-methyl piperidin-2-ones.

A solvent-controlled unprecedented tandem reaction of readily accessible SeO, a wide variety of sulfonyl hydrazides, and alkynes has been established for the chemodivergent construction of structurally complex 1,2-bis(()-1-aryl-2-arylsulfonylvinyl)diselanes and bis(()-1-aryl-2-(arylsulfonyl)vinyl)selanes via a catalyst-free one-pot three-component approach, respectively. The adjustable and controlled synthetic strategy shows good yields and chemoselectivities for most substrates under mild and simple conditions.

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.

The directional assembly of porous organic molecules into long-range ordered architectures, featuring controlled hierarchical porosity and oriented pore channels with defined spatial arrangements, is a fundamental challenge in chemistry and materials science. Herein, using porous organic cages as starting units, we present a cooperative multiscale-assembly strategy enabling the simultaneous alignment of pore channels and directional hierarchical growth in a single step. At the microscopic level, we employed double solvents to manipulate the intermolecular packing of microporous tetrahedral [4+6] imine cages (CC1 and CC3), resulting in pore channel orientation.

Reported herein is a convenient and efficient method for one-pot, catalytic reductive amination, as well as the first multi-component tandem reductive amination-functionalization of bench-stable and readily available common carboxylic esters. This method is based on the cationic [Ir(COD)]BArF-catalyzed chemoselective hydrosilylation of esters, followed by one-pot acid-mediated amination and nucleophilic addition. The reaction was conducted under mild conditions at a very low catalyst loading (0.

High entropy alloys (HEAs) are promising heterocatalysts because of their unique physicochemical properties, but research on HEA-catalyzed tandem reactions is lacking. Moreover, limited research on HEAs for molecular transformation has hindered their development. Herein, an unsupported nanoporous HEA Al-Pt-Pd-Ru (HEANPore) prepared using a top-down dealloying method is reported.
