A new cobalt triangular prism supramolecular flask: Encapsulation of a quinhydrone cofactor for hydrogenation of nitroarenes with high selectivity and efficiency
摘要:
A new M6L3 metal-organic triangular prism host Co-L-1 was synthesized that contains a sufficiently large cavity for encapsulation of a quinhydrone (QHQ) electron transporter to form charge-transfer complexes for accelerating electron delivery. Through the strong coordinating ability of the ONP chelator, a suitable redox potential was obtained for the combination of light-driven proton reduction with the selective hydrogenation of nitro groups. The experimental results showed that the regulation of redox potential is very beneficial for hydrogen production and that the introduction of QHQ accelerates electron transfer and increases the reaction rate. Control experiments based on an inhibitor and a mononuclear compound resembling the cobalt corner of the triangular prism suggest enzyme-like behaviour. This synthetic platform, in which the supramolecular systems exhibit high activity and stability, provides an alternative strategy to selectively hydrogenate nitroarenes using light as a clean energy source.

The heterogeneous palladium-catalyzedSuzukireactions between model aryl bromides (4-bromoanisole, 4-bromoaniline, 4-amino-2-bromopyridine, and 2-bromopyridine) and phenylboronic acid have been successfully conducted in water with no added ligand at the 100 mL scale using 20–40 mmol of aryl bromide. The product yields associated with these substrates were optimized, and key reaction parameters affecting

Poly N-substituted Glycines (poly NSGs), wherein the substituents bear purine or pyrimidine bases (R9) every second glycine:
In addition, a solid phase method for the synthesis of N-substituted oligomers of more general structures is disclosed.The poly NSGs obtainable by this method can have a wide variety of side-chain substituents. Each N-substituted glycine monomer is assembled from two "sub-monomers" directly on the solid support. Each cycle of monomer addition consists of two steps: (1) acylation of a secondary amine bound to the support with an acylating agent comprising a leaving group capable of nucleophilic displacement by -NH2, such as a haloacetic acid, and (2) introduction of the side-chain by nucleophilic displacement of the leaving group, such as halogen (as a resin-bound α-haloacetamide) with a sufficient amount of a second sub-monomer comprising an -NH2 group, such as a primary amine, alkoxyamine, semicarbazide, acyl hydrazide, carbazate or the like. Repetition of the two step cycle of acylation and displacement gives the desired oligomers. The efficient synthesis of a wide variety of oligomeric NSGs using the automated synthesis technology of the present method makes these oligomers attractive candidates for the generation and rapid screening of diverse peptidomimetic libraries. The oligomers of the invention, such as N-substituted glycines (i.e. poly NSGs) disclosed here provide a new class of peptide-like compounds not found in nature, but which are synthetically accessible and have been shown to possess significant biological activity and proteolytic stability.
