AI Article Synopsis
- A novel method for alkenyltrifluoromethylation of alkenes has been developed, using visible light and a mix of easily accessible reactants.
- The reaction showcases good tolerance for various functional groups and produces valuable CF-functionalized 1,4-naphthoquinones, useful for modifying natural products and drugs.
- This process acts as an autocatalytic system, with 2-arylamino-1,4-naphthoquinones functioning as both the substrate and catalyst, allowing for simple reactions without the need for external catalysts.
Article Abstract
The first example of the visible light-driven and substrate-promoted three-component alkenyltrifluoromethylation of alkenes is developed. This approach uses easily available alkenes, 2-arylamino-1,4-naphthoquinones and Togni reagent as the reactants, and describes good functionality tolerance. The reaction offers a precise synthesis of valuable CF-functionalized 1,4-naphthoquinones and can be applied in late-stage modification of natural products and pharmaceuticals. Experimental results imply that bifunctional 2-arylamino-1,4-naphthoquinones serve as both substrates and catalysts. In terms of this autocatalytic system, the protocol enables a straightforward intermolecular difunctionalization of alkenes under visible light irradiation without external catalysts.

Semiconductor polymeric graphitic carbon nitride (g-CN) photocatalysts have garnered significant and rapidly increasing interest in the realm of visible light-driven hydrogen evolution reactions. This interest stems from their straightforward synthesis, ease of functionalization, appealing electronic band structure, high physicochemical and thermal stability, and robust photocatalytic activity. This review starts with the basic principle of photocatalysis and the development history, synthetic strategy, and structural properties of g-CN materials, followed by the rational design and engineering of g-CN from the perspectives of nano-morphological control and electronic band tailoring.

This study focuses on achieving high photocatalytic activity using MoS/TiO heterostructures (MOT). To this end, MoS and TiO were synthesized by employing hydrothermal synthesis techniques, and then MoS/TiO heterostructures were synthesized by using 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, and 1:4 ratios of MoS and TiO, respectively. While the structural and electronic changes for the 1:2 and 1:3 ratios were relatively minor, significant modifications in bandgaps and morphology were observed for the 1:1 and 1:4 ratios.

This work pioneered an innovative visible light-powered, self-cascading peroxide antimicrobial packaging system (RPFe-CS), featuring a photodynamic enhancement effect achieved through the demand-oriented design of riboflavin sodium phosphate and Fe coordination complexes (RPFe) fillers with photodynamic and peroxidase activities, and the ingenious selection of slightly acidic chitosan (CS) film matrix. In this system, the photo-responsive properties of RPFe particles not only generate the •O, •OH, and O required for photodynamic sterilization, but also the produced HO serves as a necessary substrate for peroxidase to exert its bactericidal effect, endowing the packaging system with a "self-production and self-marketing" cascade process. The RPFe-CS film achieved efficient eradication to bacteria and fungi reaching up to 99.

Carbon dots (CDs) mediated g-CN (CN) is a promising visible-light-driven semiconductor in catalyzing peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for aqueous contaminants remediation. However, the poor dispersibility of powered catalyst and its challenging recyclability impede their broader application. Herein, we embedded FeN bridge within the g-CN framework and immobilized g-CN gel beads (CA/FNCCN) through a 3D cross-linking process with sodium alginate.

Two dimensional β-ketoamine covalent organic frameworks (2D TP-COFs) are one category of promising metal-free catalysts for photocatalytic overall water splitting (OWS) because of their unusual stability and versatile electronic/optical properties. However, none of the currently reported TP-COFs can accomplish the hydrogen evolution (HER) and oxygen evolution reactions (OER) simultaneously without adding any sacrificial agents and cocatalysts. To address this challenging issue, we rationally designed 23 2D TP-COFs by regulating the linkage groups and comprehensively evaluated their OWS activity by using the first-principles method.
