- One-Pot Direct Oxidation of Primary Amines to Carboxylic Acids through Tandem ortho-Naphthoquinone-Catalyzed and TBHP-Promoted Oxidation Sequence
-
Biomimetic oxidation of primary amines to carboxylic acids has been developed where the copper-containing amine oxidase (CuAO)-like o-NQ-catalyzed aerobic oxidation was combined with the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)-like TBHP-mediated imine oxidation protocol. Notably, the current tandem oxidation strategy provides a new mechanistic insight into the imine intermediate and the seemingly simple TBHP-mediated oxidation pathways of imines. The developed metal-free amine oxidation protocol allows the use of molecular oxygen and TBHP, safe forms of oxidant that may appeal to the industrial application.

- C70Fullerene Catalyzed Photoinduced Aerobic Oxidation of Benzylamines to Imines and Aldehydes
-
C70 fullerene catalyzed photoinduced oxidation of benzylic amines at ambient conditions has been explored here. The developed strategy's main feature includes the additive/oxidant-free conversion of benzylic amine to corresponding imine and aldehydes. The reaction manifests broad substrate scope with excellent function group leniency and is applicable up to the gram scale. Further, symmetrical secondary amines can also be synthesized from benzylic amine in a one-pot two-step process. Various experiments and density functional theory studies revealed that the current reaction involves the generation of reactive oxygen species, single electron transfer reaction, and benzyl radical formation as key steps under photocatalytic conditions.

- Cu-mediated oxidative trifluoromethylthiolation of arylboronic acids with (bpy)CuSCF3
-
An efficient trifluoromethylthiolation reaction of arylboronic acids with (bpy)CuSCF3in the presence of oxygen at room temperature is described. This method produces a variety of aryl trifluoromethylthioether derivatives in good to high yield. The mechanism of this trifluoromethylthiolation is discussed as well.

- Triphenylphosphine-Mediated Deoxygenative Reduction of CF3SO2Na and Its Application for Trifluoromethylthiolation of Aryl Iodides
-
We report herein a practical method for taming Langlois' reagent CF3SO2Na to generate CuSCF3 by a triphenylphospine-mediated deoxygenative reduction process. This chemistry highlights a novel utilization of the inherent CF3S skeleton of Langlois' reagent as a CF3S feedstock under mild conditions. The CuSCF3 intermediate generated by this protocol can react with a wide array of supporting ligands to furnish several air-stable [LCu(SCF3)] complexes as valuable trifluoromethylthiolating agents. In addition, the CuSCF3 intermediate can be directly employed for the trifluoromethylthiolation of (hetero)aryl iodides with operational simplicity and atomic efficiency. Efficient synthesis! A low cost method for the generation of CuSCF3 by a triphenylphospine-mediated deoxygenative reduction of Langlois' reagent (CF3SO2Na) has been developed (see scheme). This method can be applied for the convenient synthesis of a wide array of ligated and air-stable CuSCF3 complexes. Additionally, the CuSCF3 complexes generated in situ by this protocol were found to trifluoromethylthiolate (hetero)aryl iodides with high efficiency.

- Structure-reactivity relationship of trifluoromethanesulfenates: Discovery of an electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent
-
A family of electrophilic trifluoromethanesulfenates was prepared. Structure-reactivity relationship studies showed that the substituted groups on the aryl ring of the trifluoromethylthiolating reagent did not have an obvious influence on their reactivities. A simplified electrophilic trifluoromethylthiolating reagent 1c was then identified that can react with a wide range of nucleophiles such as Grignard reagents, arylboronic acids, alkynes, indoles, β-ketoesters, oxindoles, and sodium sulfinates under mild reaction conditions. A variety of functional groups were tolerated under these conditions.

- Selective oxidations of activated alcohols in water at room temperature
-
Allylic and benzylic alcohols can be selectively oxidized to their corresponding aldehydes or ketones in water containing nanoreactors composed of the designer surfactant TPGS-750-M. The oxidation relies on catalytic amounts of CuBr, bpy, and TEMPO, with N-methyl-imidazole; air is the stoichiometric oxidant. the Partner Organisations 2014.

- Synthesis and antifungal activities of R-102557 and related dioxane- triazole derivatives
-
Novel triazole compounds with a dioxane ring were synthesized. Condensation of the diol precursor 10 with various aromatic aldehydes 11 - 13 under acidic conditions afforded a series of dioxane-triazole compounds 14 - 16. The antifungal activities of the compounds 14 - 16 were evaluated in vivo in mice infection models against Candida and Aspergillus species. High activities were seen for the derivatives with one or two double bond(s) and an aromatic ring substituted with an electron-withdrawing group in the side chain. Among the derivatives, R-102557 (16R: Ar=4-(2,2,3,3- tetrafluoropropoxy)phenyl) showed excellent in vivo activities against Candida, Aspergillus and Cryptococcus species. It also showed high tolerance in a preliminary toxicity study in rats.
