An (S,S)-QuinoxP?-supported Cu(i) catalyst has been disclosed for highly enantioselective intramolecular addition of aryl pinacolboronic esters to unactivated ketones under mild reaction conditions. This protocol showcases a broad substrate tolerance and allows access to various chiral 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran-3-ol derivatives in generally good yields with excellent enantioselectivities.

Selective cleavage of C-C linkages is the key and a challenge for lignin degradation to harvest value-added aromatic compounds. To this end, electrocatalytic oxidation presents a promising technique by virtue of mild reaction conditions and strong sustainability. However, the existing electrocatalysts (traditional bulk metal and metal oxides) for C-C bond oxidative cleavage suffer from poor selectivity and low product yields. We show for the first time that atomically dispersed Pt-N3C1sites planted on nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (Pt1/N-CNTs), constructed via a stepwise polymerization-carbonization-electrostatic adsorption strategy, are highly active and selective toward Cα-Cβbond cleavage in β-O-4 model compounds under ambient conditions. Pt1/N-CNTs exhibits 99% substrate conversion with 81% yield of benzaldehyde, which is exceptional and unprecedented compared with previously reported electrocatalysts. Moreover, Pt1/N-CNTs using only 0.41 wt % Pt achieved a much higher benzaldehyde yield than those of the state-of-the-art bulk Pt electrode (100 wt % Pt) and commercial Pt/C catalyst (20 wt % Pt). Systematic experimental investigation together with density functional theory (DFT) calculation suggests that the superior performance of Pt1/N-CNTs arises from the atomically dispersed Pt-N3C1sites facilitating the formation of a key Cβradical intermediate, further inducing a radical/radical cross-coupling path to break the Cα-Cβbond. This work opens up opportunities in lignin valorization via a green and sustainable electrochemical route with ultralow noble metal usage.

A practical and mild synthesis of pentafluorophenoxy ketone in a continuous flow microfluidic reactor has been developed through 1,3-Dibromo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DBH)/DMSO mediated oxidative coupling of styrenes with pentafluorophenol. Moreover, a series of pentafluorophenoxy ketone products were provided in moderate to good yields under metal-free conditions. A magnifying continuous flow system was erected to verify the appliance of this method.
