Conjugating Biotin to Ruthenium(II) Arene Units via Phosphine Ligand Functionalization

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor

Two-step functionalization of 4-diphenylphosphino benzoic acid with biotin afforded 2-(biotinyloxy)ethyl 4-(diphenylphosphanyl)benzoate (LP), that was subsequently used to synthesize the Ru(II) arene complexes [RuCl2(eta(6)-p-cymene)(LP)] (1), [Ru(C2O4)(et ...

Z-Selective Synthesis of Vinyl Boronates through Fe-Catalyzed Alkyl Radical Addition

Xile Hu, Guido Barzanò, Alexis Baptiste Cheseaux

Z-Selective synthesis of vinyl boronates is challenging. This work describes Fe-catalyzed addition of alkyl radicals, formed by the corresponding alkyl halides, to ethynyl ethynylboronic acid pinacol ester that gives rise to Z-vinyl boronates in high stere ...

A Cobalt-Iron Double-Atom Catalyst for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Xile Hu, Duncan Thomas Lindsay Alexander, Lichen Bai

Single-atom catalysts exhibit well-defined active sites and potentially maximum atomic efficiency. However, they are unsuitable for reactions that benefit from bimetallic promotion such as the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline medium. Here we ...
