An evolved artificial radical cyclase enables the construction of bicyclic terpenoid scaffolds via an H-atom transfer pathway

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia

While natural terpenoid cyclases generate complex terpenoid structures via cationic mechanisms, alternative radical cyclization pathways are underexplored. The metal-catalysed H-atom transfer reaction (M-HAT) offers an attractive means for hydrofunctionali ...

Preparation, Quantification, and Reaction of Pd Hydrides on Pd/ Al2O3 in Liquid Environment

Oliver Kröcher, Thibault Xavier Florian Fovanna

The ability to study in situ the formation and consumption of Pd hydrides (PdH) in liquid environments is a significant challenge hampering a deeper understanding of catalyzed liquid-phase hydrogenation reactions. Here, using quick scanning X-ray absorptio ...

The nature of carbon deposits and their formation pathways during catalytic supercritical water gasification of glycerol

Christopher Marc Hunston

Supercritical water gasification (SCWG) is a promising technology to convert wet biomass to renewable natural gas. The present study sheds light on the chemical composition and the formation mechanism of coke deposits on a Ru/CNF catalyst during continuous ...

Tandem Pauson-Khand Reaction Using Carbon Dioxide as the C1-Source

Paul Joseph Dyson, Serhii Shyshkanov, Kedar Ashok Abhyankar

We describe the use of CO2 as a promising C1 source instead of CO in the tandem Pauson-Khand reaction. The reaction is achieved by combining the reduction of CO2 to CO using a metal organic framework (MOF) catalyst with homogeneous rhodium catalysts for th ...

Organic Chemistry and Synthesis Rely More and More upon Catalysts

Pierre Vogel

A few months before the COVID-19 pandemic, Pierre Vogel and Kendall N. Houk published with a new textbook Wiley-VCH, "Organic Chemistry: Theory, Reactivity, and Mechanisms in Modern Synthesis", with a foreword from the late Roberts H. Grubbs. The book demo ...

Oxygen Evolution at the BiVO4-Water Interface: Mechanism of the Water Dehydrogenation Reaction

Alfredo Pasquarello, Julia Anna Wiktor, Sai Lyu

We study the water dehydrogenation reaction at the BiVO4(010)-water interface by combining nudged-elastic-band calculations and electronic structure calculations at the hybrid functional level. We investigate the pathway and the kinetic barrier for the adi ...

Structure and Reactivity of N-Heterocyclic Alkynyl Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Rosario Scopelliti, Jérôme Waser, Farzaneh Fadaei Tirani, Matthew Wodrich, Eliott Hugo Joran Le Du

Ethynylbenziodoxol(on)e (EBX) cyclic hypervalent iodine reagents have become popular reagents for the alkynylation of radicals and nucleophiles, but only offer limited possibilities for further structure and reactivity fine-tuning. Herein, the synthesis of ...

New Vinylation and Alkynylation Strategies with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents and Diazo Compounds

Guillaume Dominique Pisella

The development of a sequential copper-catalyzed oxy-alkynylation/intramolecular [4+2] cycloaddition of allenes and arenes was investigated at first. This one-pot protocol allowed the construction of complex polycylic architectures with high efficiency fro ...

Enhancing solar disinfection of water in PET bottles by optimized in-situ formation of iron oxide films. From heterogeneous to homogeneous action modes with H2O2 vs. O-2 - Part 2: Direct use of (natural) iron oxides

César Pulgarin, Sami Rtimi, Stefanos Giannakis

Solar disinfection (SODIS) is a well-accepted intervention method, leading to an improvement in contaminated water sources. In this work, we attempted to further enhance the bacterial inactivation process during light exposure. By means of iron oxide addit ...

Carbon Dioxide Based N-Formylation of Amines Catalyzed by Fluoride and Hydroxide Anions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Felix Daniel Bobbink, Shoubhik Das, Martin Hulla

We described herein a simple approach for N-formylation with CO2 and hydrosilane reducing agents. Fluoride and hydroxide salts efficiently catalyzed the reaction, principally through activation of the hydrosilanes, which led to hydrosilane reactivities com ...

Enantioselective Synthesis of Quaternary α-Amino Acids Enabled by the Versatility of the Phenylselenonyl Group

Jieping Zhu, Qian Wang, Antonin François Roland Clemenceau

A novel Cinchona alkaloid-catalyzed enantioselective conjugate addition of alpha-alkyl substituted alpha-nitroacetates to phenyl vinyl selenone was developed. The resulting enantio-enriched alpha,alpha-dialkyl substituted alpha-nitroacetates were subsequen ...

Recent developments of iron pincer complexes for catalytic applications

Xile Hu, Gerald Bauer

Iron catalysis is attractive for organic synthesis because iron is inexpensive, abundant, and non-toxic. To control the activity and stability of an iron center, a large number of iron pincer complexes have been synthesized. Many such complexes exhibit exc ...
