- Metal–Organic Layers Hierarchically Integrate Three Synergistic Active Sites for Tandem Catalysis
-
We report the design of a bifunctional metal–organic layer (MOL), Hf12-Ru-Co, composed of [Ru(DBB)(bpy)2]2+ [DBB-Ru, DBB=4,4′-di(4-benzoato)-2,2′-bipyridine; bpy=2,2′-bipyridine] connecting ligand as a photosensitizer and Co(dmgH)2(PPA)Cl (PPA-Co, dmgH=dimethylglyoxime; PPA=4-pyridinepropionic acid) on the Hf12 secondary building unit (SBU) as a hydrogen-transfer catalyst. Hf12-Ru-Co efficiently catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenation of indolines and tetrahydroquinolines to afford indoles and quinolones. We extended this strategy to prepare Hf12-Ru-Co-OTf MOL with a [Ru(DBB)(bpy)2]2+ photosensitizer and Hf12 SBU capped with triflate as strong Lewis acids and PPA-Co as a hydrogen transfer catalyst. With three synergistic active sites, Hf12-Ru-Co-OTf competently catalyzed dehydrogenative tandem transformations of indolines with alkenes or aldehydes to afford 3-alkylindoles and bisindolylmethanes with turnover numbers of up to 500 and 460, respectively, illustrating the potential use of MOLs in constructing novel multifunctional heterogeneous catalysts.

- Covalent Organic Frameworks toward Diverse Photocatalytic Aerobic Oxidations
-
Photoactive two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (2D-COFs) have become promising heterogenous photocatalysts in visible-light-driven organic transformations. Herein, a visible-light-driven selective aerobic oxidation of various small organic molecules by using 2D-COFs as the photocatalyst was developed. In this protocol, due to the remarkable photocatalytic capability of hydrazone-based 2D-COF-1 on molecular oxygen activation, a wide range of amides, quinolones, heterocyclic compounds, and sulfoxides were obtained with high efficiency and excellent functional group tolerance under very mild reaction conditions. Furthermore, benefiting from the inherent advantage of heterogenous photocatalysis, prominent sustainability and easy photocatalyst recyclability, a drug molecule (modafinil) and an oxidized mustard gas simulant (2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfoxide) were selectively and easily obtained in scale-up reactions. Mechanistic investigations were conducted using radical quenching experiments and in situ ESR spectroscopy, all corroborating the proposed role of 2D-COF-1 in photocatalytic cycle.

- Highly Ordered Mesoporous Cobalt Oxide as Heterogeneous Catalyst for Aerobic Oxidative Aromatization of N-Heterocycles
-
N-heterocycles are key structures for many pharmaceutical intermediates. The synthesis of such units normally is conducted under homogeneous catalytic conditions. Among all methods, aerobic oxidative aromatization is one of the most effective. However, in homogeneous conditions, catalysts are difficult to be recycled. Herein, we report a heterogeneous catalytic strategy with a mesoporous cobalt oxide as catalyst. The developed protocol shows a broad applicability for the synthesis of N-heterocycles (32 examples, up to 99 % yield), and the catalyst presents high turnover numbers (7.41) in the absence of any additives. Such a heterogenous approach can be easily scaled up. Furthermore, the catalyst can be recycled by simply filtration and be reused for at least six times without obvious deactivation. Comparative studies reveal that the high surface area of mesoporous cobalt oxide plays an important role on the catalytic reactivity. The outstanding recycling capacity makes the catalyst industrially practical and sustainable for the synthesis of diverse N-heterocycles.

The surge of photocatalytic transformation not only provides unprecedented synthetic methods, but also triggers the enthusiasm for more sustainable photocatalysts. On the other hand, oxygen is an ideal oxidant in terms of atom economy and environmental friendliness. However, the poor reactivity of oxygen at the ground state makes its utilization challenging. Herein, a visible-light-induced oxidative dehydrogenative process is disclosed, which uses an organoboron compound as the photocatalyst and molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant.Viathis approach, an array of N-heterocycles have been accessed under metal-free mild conditions, in good to excellent yields.

We report herein an unprecedented combination of light and P(III)/P(V) redox cycling for the efficient deoxygenation of aromatic amine N-oxides. Moreover, we discovered that a large variety of aliphatic amine N-oxides can easily be deoxygenated by using only phenylsilane. These practically simple approaches proceed well under metal-free conditions, tolerate many functionalities and are highly chemoselective. Combined experimental and computational studies enabled a deep understanding of factors controlling the reactivity of both aromatic and aliphatic amine N-oxides.

- Nitrogen-coordinated cobalt nanocrystals for oxidative dehydrogenation and hydrogenation of N-heterocycles
-
To endow non-noble metals with the high catalytic activity that is typically exhibited by noble metals is the central yet challenging aim for substituting noble metals. In this regard, by exploiting the coordination effect of nitrogen, we prepared cobalt nanocrystals stabilized by nitrogen-doped graphitized carbon (Co NCs/N-C). The obtained Co NC/N-C catalyst showed extraordinary performances toward both oxidative dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles and its reverse hydrogenation process under extremely mild conditions. A nearly quantitative conversion could be achieved for oxidative dehydrogenation even at room temperature (25 °C), for which the coordination effect of nitrogen is responsible: the interaction of Co-N induces a partial positive charge on the Co surface, thereby promoting the reaction. In contrast, cobalt nanocrystals supported by pristine carbon (Co NCs/C) proved to be inactive for oxidative dehydrogenation, owing to the lack of nitrogen. Moreover, in Co NCs/N-C, the N-doped graphitized carbon formed a protective layer for Co NCs, which preserved the active valence of Co species and prevented the catalyst from leaching. It was found that the catalyst still retained its excellent catalytic activity after five regeneration cycles; in comparison, its cobaltous oxide counterpart (CoOx/N-C) was barely active. As for the mechanism, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis revealed the formation of superoxide anion radicals during the dehydrogenation process. Interestingly, the pressure of feed hydrogen had little effect on the hydrogenation process. Our Co NC/N-C catalyst is capable of activating molecular oxygen and hydrogen as effectively as noble metals; the coordination effect of nitrogen and the protection by the carbon layer in combination confer tremendous potential on the Co NCs/N-C for substituting noble-metal-based catalysts and soluble catalysts for homogeneous reactions.

- Multi-Functional Oxidase Activity of CYP102A1 (P450BM3) in the Oxidation of Quinolines and Tetrahydroquinolines

Tetrahydroquinoline, quinoline, and dihydroquinolinone are common core motifs in drug molecules. Screening of a 48-variant library of the cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP102A1 (P450BM3), followed by targeted mutagenesis based on mutation-selectivity correlations from initial hits, has enabled the hydroxylation of substituted tetrahydroquinolines, quinolines, and 3,4-dihydro-2-quinolinones at most positions around the two rings in good to high yields at synthetically relevant scales (1.5 g L?1 day?1). Other oxidase activities, such as C?C bond desaturation, aromatization, and C?C bond formation, were also observed. The enzyme variants, with mutations at the key active site residues S72, A82, F87, I263, E267, A328, and A330, provide direct and sustainable routes to oxy-functionalized derivatives of these building block molecules for synthesis and drug discovery.

Adsorption experiments in DMF solution demonstrated that U-IHEP-4 selectively adsorbs positively charged dyes, which is in line with its negatively charged framework and large pore volume ratio (90 %). Remarkably, U-IHEP-4 exhibited high catalytic activity for the dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles to synthesize the corresponding aromatic heterocycles and it can be used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst.

The reactions of L1–5H with silylamido calcium precursors (Ca[N(SiMe2R)2]2(THF)2, R=Me or H) at room temperature gave heteroleptic products (L1, 2)CaN(SiMe3)2 (1, 2), (L3, 4)CaN(SiHMe2)2 (3 a, 4 a) and homoleptic complexes (L3, 5)2Ca (D3, D5). NMR and X-ray analyses proved that these calcium complexes were stabilized through Ca???C?Si, Ca???H?Si or Ca???H?C agostic interactions. Unexpectedly, calcium complexes ((L3–5)CaN(SiMe3)2) bearing more sterically encumbered ligands of the same type were extremely unstable and underwent C?N bond cleavage processes as a consequence of intramolecular C?H bond activation, leading to the exclusive formation of (E)-1,2-bis(8-isopropylquinol-2-yl)ethane.

- A Convenient Procedure for the Oxidative Dehydrogenation of N-Heterocycles Catalyzed by FeCl2/DMSO
-
A convenient catalytic procedure has been developed for the oxidative dehydrogenations of N-heterocycles. Combining catalytic FeCl2 with DMSO yields a catalyst that promotes the dehydrogenation of tetrahydroquinolines and related heterocycles under 1 bar of O2, affording the corresponding N-heteroaromatic products in moderate yields.

- Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane-Catalyzed Acceptorless Dehydrogenation of N-Heterocycles
-
Catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation is an environmentally benign way to desaturate organic compounds. This process is traditionally accomplished with transition-metal-based catalysts. Herein, a borane-catalyzed, metal-free acceptorless dehydrogenation of saturated N-heterocycles is disclosed. Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane was identified as a versatile catalyst, which afforded several synthetically important N-heteroarenes in up to quantitative yield. Specifically, the present metal-free catalytic system exhibited a uniquely high tolerance toward sulfur functionalities, and demonstrated superior reactivity in the synthesis of benzothiazoles compared to conventional metal-catalyzed systems. This protocol can thus be regarded as the first example of metal-free acceptorless dehydrogenation in synthetic organic chemistry.

- Picomole-Scale Real-Time Photoreaction Screening: Discovery of the Visible-Light-Promoted Dehydrogenation of Tetrahydroquinolines under Ambient Conditions
-
The identification of new photocatalytic pathways expands our knowledge of chemical reactivity and enables new environmentally friendly synthetic applications. However, the development of miniaturized screening procedures/platforms to expedite the discovery of photochemical reactions remains challenging. Herein, we describe a picomole-scale, real-time photoreaction screening platform in which a handheld laser source is coupled with nano-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. By using this method, we discovered an accelerated dehydrogenation pathway for the conversion of tetrahydroquinolines into the corresponding quinolines. This transformation is readily promoted by an off-the-shelf [Ru(bpy)3]Cl2?6 H2O complex in air at ambient temperature in direct sunlight, or with the aid of an energy-saving lamp. Moreover, radical cations and trans-dihydride intermediates captured by the screening platform provided direct evidence for the mechanism of the photoredox reaction.

- Highly Enantioselective Direct Synthesis of Endocyclic Vicinal Diamines through Chiral Ru(diamine)-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of 2,2′-Bisquinoline Derivatives
-
An asymmetric hydrogenation of 2,2′-bisquinoline and bisquinoxaline derivatives, catalyzed by chiral cationic ruthenium diamine complexes, was developed. A broad range of chiral endocyclic vicinal diamines were obtained in high yields with excellent diastereo- and enantioselectivity (up to 93:7 dl/meso and >99 % ee). These chiral diamines could be easily transformed into a new class of chiral N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs), which are important but difficult to access.

- Synthesis and Characterization of Iron-Nitrogen-Doped Graphene/Core-Shell Catalysts: Efficient Oxidative Dehydrogenation of N-Heterocycles
-
An important goal for nanocatalysis is the development of flexible and efficient methods for preparing active and stable core-shell catalysts. In this respect, we present the synthesis and characterization of iron oxides surrounded by nitrogen-doped-graphene shells immobilized on carbon support (labeled FeOx@NGr-C). Active catalytic materials are obtained in a simple, scalable and two-step method via pyrolysis of iron acetate and phenanthroline and subsequent selective leaching. The optimized FeOx@NGr-C catalyst showed high activity in oxidative dehydrogenations of several N-heterocycles. The utility of this benign methodology is demonstrated by the synthesis of pharmaceutically relevant quinolines. In addition, mechanistic studies prove that the reaction progresses via superoxide radical anions (·O2-).

- Catalytic Aerobic Dehydrogenation of Nitrogen Heterocycles Using Heterogeneous Cobalt Oxide Supported on Nitrogen-Doped Carbon
-
Dehydrogenation of (partially) saturated heterocycles provides an important route to heteroaromatic compounds. A heterogeneous cobalt oxide catalyst, previously employed for aerobic oxidation of alcohols and amines, is shown to be effective for aerobic dehydrogenation of various 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines to the corresponding quinolines. The reactions proceed in good yields under mild conditions. Other N-heterocycles are also successfully oxidized to their aromatic counterparts.

- Quinoline synthesis by improved Skraup-Doebner-Von Miller reactions utilizing acrolein diethyl acetal
-
A robust synthetic method has been developed as an improvement to the venerable Skraup-Doebner-Von Miller reaction providing access to various quinoline products. The straightforward procedure utilizes acrolein diethyl acetal as a three-carbon annulation partner with aniline substrates in a monophasic, organic solvent-free reaction medium. Differentially substituted aniline precursors were found to be compatible with the reaction conditions and the corresponding quinoline products are isolated in moderate to good yields.

- Reactivity of dimeric cyclopalladated complexes with an (sp3)C-Pd bond toward KPPh2
-
Abstract Reactions of KPPh2 with dimeric C,N, C,P and C,S cyclopalladated complexes (CPCs) 1a-g containing an (sp3)C-Pd bond were investigated. The CPCs used in the study were obtained from D-camphor O-methyloxime (a), l-fenchone O-methyloxime (b), 4,4-dimethyl-2-phenyl-2-oxazoline (c), 8-methylquinoline (d), trimesitylphosphine (e), tri(O-tolyl)phosphine (f) and 2,6-dimethylthioanisole (g). The dichloro-bridged CPCs 1a,b,d,f,g and the diacetato-bridged analog μ-OAc-1d reacted with 4.5 equiv. of KPPh2 at room temperature in THF to give either phosphines 2a,b or phosphine oxides 8d,f,g in 20-51% yield. Complexes 1a,b,d reacted with 1 equiv. of KPPh2 to produce the corresponding μ-chloro-μ-diphenylphosphido-CPCs 3a,b,d in 33-56% yield. In the reaction of CPC 1c with 4.5 equiv. of KPPh2, complex 4c with two PPh2 bridging ligands was isolated in 36% yield. Structures of phosphines 2a,b, phosphine oxides 8a,d,f,g as well as complexes 3a,b,d and 4c were confirmed by 1H, 13C{1H} and 31P{1H} NMR spectroscopy.

A well-defined iron complex (3) supported by a bis(phosphino)amine pincer ligand efficiently catalyzes both acceptorless dehydrogenation and hydrogenation of N-heterocycles. The products from these reactions are isolated in good yields. Complex 3, the active catalytic species in the dehydrogenation reaction, is independently synthesized and characterized, and its structure is confirmed by X-ray crystallography. A trans-dihydride intermediate (4) is proposed to be involved in the hydrogenation reaction, and its existence is verified by NMR and trapping experiments.
