What do we talk about, when we talk about single-crystal termination-dependent selectivity of Cu electrocatalysts for CO2 reduction? A data-driven retrospective

Kevin Rossi

We mine from the literature experimental data on the CO2 electrochemical reduction selectivity of Cu single crystal surfaces. We then probe the accuracy of a machine learning model trained to predict faradaic efficiencies for 11 CO2 reduction reaction prod ...

Diverting the 5-exo-Trig Oxypalladation to Formally 6-endo-Trig Fluorocycloetherification Product through 1,2-O/Pd(IV) Dyotropic Rearrangement

Qian Wang, Jieping Zhu, Jing Gong

Pd-catalyzed cyclizative functionalization of γ-hydroxyalkenes affords tetrahydrofuran derivatives via a key 5-exo-trig oxypalladation step. Herein, we report a palladium(II)-catalyzed, Selectfluor-mediated formal 6-endo-trig fluorocycloetherification of γ ...

Oxidase-Type C-H/C-H Coupling Using an Isoquinoline-Derived Organic Photocatalyst

Xile Hu, Lei Zhang

Oxidase-type oxidation is an attractive strategy in organic synthesis due to the use of O-2 as the terminal oxidant. Organic photocatalysis can effect metal-free oxidase chemistry. Nevertheless, current methods are limited in reaction scope, possibly due t ...

Warping-Inclusive Kinematic Coupling in Mixed-Dimension Macro Models for Steel Wide Flange Beam Columns

Albano António De Abreu E Presa De Castro E Sousa, Dimitrios Lignos, Alexander Riley Hartloper

A warping-inclusive kinematic coupling method to be used in finite-element analysis of members featuring wide-flange cross sections is proposed in this paper. This coupling method is used in mixed-dimension macromodels that combine continuum and beam-colum ...

Palladium-Catalyzed trans-Hydroalkoxylation: Counterintuitive Use of an Aryl Iodide Additive to Promote C-H Bond Formation

Jérôme Waser, Ashis Kumar Das, Luca Buzzetti, Mikus Purins

We report an enantioselective palladium-catalyzed trans-hydroalkoxylation of propargylic amines with a trifluoroacetaldehydederived tether to build chiral oxazolidines. Diastereoselective hydrogenation using a heterogeneous palladium catalyst then gave acc ...

(4+3) Annulation of Donor-Acceptor Cyclopropanes and Azadienes: Highly Stereoselective Synthesis of Azepanones

Jérôme Waser, Stefano Nicolai

Azepanes are important seven-membered heterocycles, which are present in numerous natural and synthetic compounds. However, the development of convergent synthetic methods to access them remains challenging. Herein, we report the Lewis acid catalyzed (4+3) ...
