- Introduction of a Recyclable Basic Ionic Solvent with Bis-(NHC) Ligand Property and The Possibility of Immobilization on Magnetite for Ligand- and Base-Free Pd-Catalyzed Heck, Suzuki and Sonogashira Cross-Coupling Reactions in Water
-
A new versatile and recyclable NHC ligand precursor has been developed with ligand, base, and solvent functionalities for the efficient Pd-catalyzed Heck, Suzuki and Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions under mild conditions. Furthermore, NHC ligand precursor was immobilized on magnetite and its catalytic activity was also evaluated towards the coupling reactions as a heterogeneous catalyst. The NHC ligand precursor was prepared with imidazolium functionalization of TCT followed by a simple ion exchange by hydroxide ions. However, the results revealed an excellent catalytic activity for the both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalytic systems. 1.52?g.cm?3 and 1194 cP was obtained for the density and viscosity of the NHC ligand precursor respectively. On the other hand, the heterogeneous type could be readily recovered from the reaction mixture and reused for several times while preserving its properties. Heterogeneous nature of the magnetic catalyst was studied by hot filtration, mercury poisoning, and three-phase tests. High to excellent yields were obtained for all entries for the both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts, which reflects the high consistency of the catalyst.

- Structural Effect of Pincer Pd(II)–ONO Complexes Modified with Acylthiourea on Sizes of the In Situ Generated Pd Nanoparticles During Heck Coupling Reaction
-
Abstract: The Pd nanoparticles generated in situ from Pd–pincer complexes catalyzed Heck coupling reaction. For this purpose, new Pd(II)–ONO pincer complexes (1–4) containing acylthiourea ancillary ligand were obtained by treating [Pd(ONO)(CH3CN)] with the respective N-substituted carbamothioyl benzamide ligand (L1–L4). Formation of these complexes was confirmed by UV–Visible, FT-IR, NMR and mass spectroscopic techniques. The sizes of in situ formed Pd nanoparticles were greatly affected by the substituent in ancillary ligand, which in turn influenced their catalytic activity towards Heck coupling reaction. The in situ formed Pd nanoparticles during Heck reaction were removed from the reaction medium and analyzed using HR-TEM to estimate the sizes of the Pd nanoparticles. Complex [Pd(ONO)((N-benzylcarbamothioyl)benzamide)] (1) which does not possess any substituent on the benzyl moiety of acylthiourea produced the smallest Pd nanoparticles with the average particle size of 3.7?nm. Hence, complex 1 showed the utmost catalytic activity. With complex 1, 51–99% of conversion was observed during Heck coupling reaction of styrene with various aryl halides. XPS results confirmed that the recovered black particles were Pd(0). A reasonable recyclability results were achieved by these in situ generated Pd nanoparticles.

- Aminomethylpyridinequinones as new ligands for PEPPSI-type complexes
-
A set of six new catalysts possessing quinone moieties in a pyridine ligand was synthesized and fully characterized by standard analytical techniques, including X-Ray crystallography. The results obtained in Suzuki and Mizoroki–Heck cross-coupling reactions catalyzed by quinone-based compounds were comparable to these obtained in the presence of the original PEPPSI complex designed by Organ. DFT calculations allow to see the structural and electronic factors to describe their similarity. On the other hand, steric maps and NCI plots were the tools to have a more global view of the systems studied, leaving the sphere of reactivity around the metal.

- An Amine-Assisted Ionic Monohydride Mechanism Enables Selective Alkyne cis-Semihydrogenation with Ethanol: From Elementary Steps to Catalysis
-
The selective synthesis of Z-alkenes in alkyne semihydrogenation relies on the reactivity difference of the catalysts toward the starting materials and the products. Here we report Z-selective semihydrogenation of alkynes with ethanol via a coordination-induced ionic monohydride mechanism. The EtOH-coordination-driven Cl- dissociation in a pincer Ir(III) hydridochloride complex (NCP)IrHCl (1) forms a cationic monohydride, [(NCP)IrH(EtOH)]+Cl-, that reacts selectively with alkynes over the corresponding Z-alkenes, thereby overcoming competing thermodynamically dominant alkene Z-E isomerization and overreduction. The challenge for establishing a catalytic cycle, however, lies in the alcoholysis step; the reaction of the alkyne insertion product (NCP)IrCl(vinyl) with EtOH does occur, but very slowly. Surprisingly, the alcoholysis does not proceed via direct protonolysis of the Ir-C(vinyl) bond. Instead, mechanistic data are consistent with an anion-involved alcoholysis pathway involving ionization of (NCP)IrCl(vinyl) via EtOH-for-Cl substitution and reversible protonation of Cl- ion with an Ir(III)-bound EtOH, followed by β-H elimination of the ethoxy ligand and C(vinyl)-H reductive elimination. The use of an amine is key to the monohydride mechanism by promoting the alcoholysis. The 1-amine-EtOH catalytic system exhibits an unprecedented level of substrate scope, generality, and compatibility, as demonstrated by Z-selective reduction of all alkyne classes, including challenging enynes and complex polyfunctionalized molecules. Comparison with a cationic monohydride complex bearing a noncoordinating BArF- ion elucidates the beneficial role of the Cl- ion in controlling the stereoselectivity, and comparison between 1-amine-EtOH and 1-NaOtBu-EtOH underscores the fact that this base variable, albeit in catalytic amounts, leads to different mechanisms and consequently different stereoselectivity.

-
Diarylethenes were obtained from the corresponding ethenyl sulfones by photocatalyzed desulfonylation using UV or blue LEDs. When perylene and i-Pr2NEt were used as a photocatalyst and a sacrificing reagent, respectively, this desulfonylation proceeded smoothly to afford the desired ethenes with the functional groups such as chloro, alkoxy and heteroaromatic rings remaining untouched. The use of a flow photoreactor enabled this desulfonylation to proceed more rapidly to finish in an hour of residence time.

- Synthesis of Stilbenes by Rhodium-Catalyzed Aerobic Alkenylation of Arenes via C-H Activation
-
Arene alkenylation is commonly achieved by late transition metal-mediated C(sp2)-C(sp2) cross-coupling, but this strategy typically requires prefunctionalized substrates (e.g., with halides or pseudohalides) and/or the presence of a directing group on the arene. Transition metal-mediated arene C-H activation and alkenylation offers an alternative method to functionalize arene substrates. Herein, we report a rhodium-catalyzed oxidative arene alkenylation from arenes and styrenes to prepare stilbene and stilbene derivatives. The reaction is successful with several functional groups on both the arene and the olefin including fluoride, chloride, trifluoromethyl, ester, nitro, acetate, cyanide, and ether groups. Reactions of monosubstituted arenes are selective for alkenylation at the meta and para positions, generally with approximately 2:1 selectivity, respectively. Resveratrol and (E)-1,2,3-trimethoxy-5-(4-methoxystyryl)benzene (DMU-212) are synthesized by this single-step approach in high yield. Comparison with palladium catalysis showed that rhodium catalysis is more selective for meta-functionalization for monosubstituted arenes and that the Rh catalysis has better tolerance of halogen groups.

- Synthesis and characterization of mesoporous organosilica supported palladium (SBA-Pr-NCQ-Pd) as an efficient nanocatalyst in the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction
-
In the present study, the modification of a mesoporous organosilica nanocomposite SBA-15 (Santa Barbara Amorphous 15) was carried out in two steps, first through the surface functionalization of SBA-Pr-NH2 with 2-chloroquinoline-3-carbaldehyde to form SBA-Pr-NCQ, and then through a post-modification process with palladium ions. The target nanocompound structure of SBA-Pr-NCQ-Pd was characterized by different techniques (thermogravimetric analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy). The catalytic performance of the porous inorganic–organic hybrid nanocomposite (SBA-Pr-NCQ-Pd) in one of the most important carbon–carbon bond-forming processes, the Mizoroki–Heck coupling reaction of aryl halides and methacrylate in water/ethanol media, was examined. Compared to previous reports, this protocol afforded some advantages, such as high yields of products, short reaction times, catalyst stability without leaching, simple methodology, easy workup, and greener conditions. Also, the nanocatalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture and reused several times without a significant decrease in activity and promises economic as well as environmental benefits.

- cis-Selective Transfer Semihydrogenation of Alkynes by Merging Visible-Light Catalysis with Cobalt Catalysis
-
Herein, the first example of visible-light-driven, cobalt-catalyzed transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes is reported. It is carried out by using Ir[dF(CF3)ppy]2(dtbbpy)]PF6 as photosensitizer, CoBr2/n-Bu3P as proton-reducing catalyst, and i-Pr2NEt/AcOH as the hydrogen source. Under the established catalytic system, the semihydrogenation proceeds with Z as the major selectivity and with inhibition of over-reduction. Under mild reaction conditions, both internal and terminal alkynes, as well as reducible functional groups such as halogen, cyano, and ester, are tolerated. Preliminary mechanistic studies revealed the dual role of the photosensitizer in initiating the reaction via a single-electron transfer process and controlling the stereoselectivity via an energy transfer process.

- Pd(0) immobilized on Fe3O4@AHBA: an efficient magnetically separable heterogeneous nanocatalyst for C–C coupling reactions

We have developed a new method to synthesize magnetically separable Fe3O4@AHBA@Pd(0) (AHBA = 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoic acid) heterogeneous nanocatalyst via anchoring of palladium(0) on the surface of AHBA-coated Fe3O4 nanoparticles. The synthesized nanocatalyst was characterized by FT-IR, PXRD, ICP, XPS, FESEM, EDX, TEM, TGA, BET, and FT-RAMAN analysis. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicated the presence of Pd(0) on the surface of Fe3O4@AHBA. BET analysis exhibits high surface area of the prepared nanocatalyst with catalytic activity toward Heck coupling reactions with high turnover frequency (TOF) at 60 °C in water–acetonitrile within 2 h. The nanocatalyst can be easily recovered from the reaction mixture by using an external magnet and recycled six times without significant decrease in its catalytic activity. All the isolated products are obtained as solids or oils, fully characterized by 1H-NMR spectroscopy.

A heterogeneous, magnetically recoverable Fe3O4@SiO2@Im[Cl]Co(iii)-melamine nanocomposite was prepared by immobilization of a novel Co(iii) Schiff base complex on Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles followed by treatment with melamine, and was found to be an efficient catalyst for the Heck and Sonogashira reactions. The reactions were performed in the presence of the catalyst (0.5 mol% Co) along with Mn additive in the absence of any base, phosphine ligand, or Cu/co-catalyst in ethanol under reflux conditions. The nanocatalyst was well studied by FTIR, CHN, XRD, XPS, TGA, EDX, VSM, ICP, NMR, FE-SEM, TEM, BET, CV, and DLS analyses. The catalyst was compatible with a variety of substrates, with which all the Heck and Sonogashira coupling products were obtained in high to excellent yields. Also, protocols such as hot filtration, three-phase testing, and mercury poisoning provided a complete insight into the nature of the heterogeneous catalyst. The recycling and reuse of the catalyst were studied for both coupling reactions several times. Moreover, the mechanism of the coupling reactions was entirely investigated.

- Triazine Functionalized Porous Covalent Organic Framework for Photo-organocatalytic E- Z Isomerization of Olefins

Visible light-mediated photocatalytic organic transformation has drawn significant attention as an alternative process for replacing thermal reactions. Although precious metal/organic dyes based homogeneous photocatalysts have been developed, their toxic and nonreusable nature makes them inappropriate for large-scale production. Therefore, we have synthesized a triazine and a keto functionalized nonmetal based covalent organic framework (TpTt) for heterogeneous photocatalysis. As the catalyst shows significant absorption of visible light, it has been applied for the photocatalytic uphill conversion of trans-stilbene to cis-stilbene in the presence of blue light-emitting diodes with broad substrate scope via an energy transfer process.

Cobalt-catalyzed stereodivergent semi-hydrogenation of internal alkynes to alkenes is developed. The reaction proceeded through transfer hydrogenation under mild conditions using a base metal CoI2 as the catalyst, and H2O/MeOH as the hydrogen source with Zn as the reductant. The E/Z-selectivity of the product could be switched by changing the solvent and by inclusion/exclusion of a bidentate phosphine ligand (dppe). This method provides a simple and cost effective pathway for the synthesis of 1,2-dideuterioalkenes.

The general applicability of this procedure was highlighted by the synthesis of more than 40 alkenes, with good stereoselectivities. The value of our approach in practical applications was investigated by studying the effects of pinosylvin and 4,4′-dihydroxystilbene (DHS) on zebrafish as a vertebrate model.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Stereodivergent Synthesis of E- and Z-Alkenes by Hydrogenation of Alkynes
-
A convenient protocol for stereodivergent hydrogenation of alkynes to E- and Z-alkenes by using nickel catalysts was developed. Simple Ni(NO3)2?6 H2O as a catalyst precursor formed active nanoparticles, which were effective for the semihydrogenation of several alkynes with high selectivity for the Z-alkene (Z/E>99:1). Upon addition of specific multidentate ligands (triphos, tetraphos), the resulting molecular catalysts were highly selective for the E-alkene products (E/Z>99:1). Mechanistic studies revealed that the Z-alkene-selective catalyst was heterogeneous whereas the E-alkene-selective catalyst was homogeneous. In the latter case, the alkyne was first hydrogenated to a Z-alkene, which was subsequently isomerized to the E-alkene. This proposal was supported by density functional theory calculations. This synthetic methodology was shown to be generally applicable in >40 examples and scalable to multigram-scale experiments.

- Copper-catalysed, diboron-mediated: Cis -dideuterated semihydrogenation of alkynes with heavy water
-
Methods to incorporate deuterium atoms into organic molecules are valuable for the pharmaceutical industry. Here, we found that diboron reagents can efficiently mediate the transfer of two D atoms from heavy water directly onto alkynes through copper-catalysed cis-selective semihydrogenation. Avoiding the use of costly and flammable D2 gas, this safe and practical process can proceed with excellent chemoselectivity and stereoselectivity. Utilizing the present method as the key step, the formal asymmetric total synthesis of d2-deuterium-labeled cis-combretastatin A4 is demonstrated. Mechanistic studies suggest that monoborylation of alkynes is the key step for this semihydrogenation process.

- Stereoselective Alkyne Hydrogenation by using a Simple Iron Catalyst

The stereoselective hydrogenation of alkynes constitutes one of the key approaches for the construction of stereodefined alkenes. The majority of conventional methods utilize noble and toxic metal catalysts. This study concerns a simple catalyst comprised of the commercial chemicals iron(II) acetylacetonate and diisobutylaluminum hydride, which enables the Z-selective semihydrogenation of alkynes under near ambient conditions (1–3 bar H2, 30 °C, 5 mol % [Fe]). Neither an elaborate catalyst preparation nor addition of ligands is required. Mechanistic studies (kinetic poisoning, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, TEM) strongly indicate the operation of small iron clusters and particle catalysts.

The Pd catalyst was produced throughout palladium nanoparticles' anchoring into this block copolymer. The catalyst was characterized using ICP, FT-IR, NMR, UV-Vis, TGA, XRD, SEM and EDX techniques. The catalyst's TEM image proved nearly fine dispersion of PdNPs with negligible agglomeration. The catalyst was used in the production of a variety of substituted alkenes and biaryl compounds (Heck and Suzuki coupling) in organic and aqueous media and under solvent free conditions. Additionally, the results signified extreme reusability of the catalyst with a simple recycling procedure.

-
We report a surface organometallic route that generates copper nanoparticles (NPs) on a silica support while simultaneously passivating the silica surface with trimethylsiloxy groups. The material is active for the catalytic semihydrogenation of phenylalkyl-, dialkyl- and diaryl-alkynes and displays high chemo- and stereoselectivity at full alkyne conversion to corresponding (Z)-olefins in the presence of an N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand. Solid-state NMR spectroscopy using the NHC ligand 13C-labeled at the carbenic carbon reveals a genuine coordination of the carbene to Cu NPs. The presence of distinct Cu surface environments and the coordination of the NHC to specific Cu sites likely account for the increased selectivity.

- Piperidine-appended imidazolium ionic liquid as task-specific basic-IL for Suzuki and Heck reactions and for tandem Wittig-Suzuki, Wittig-Heck, Horner-Emmons-Suzuki, and Horner-Emmons-Heck protocols
-
Facile, high yielding, one-pot methods for the synthesis of a library of diversely substituted bi-aryls, diarylethenes, and aryl-enoates, via Suzuki and Heck reactions, and by sequential Wittig-Suzuki, Wittig-Heck, Horner-Emmons-Suzuki, and Horner-Emmons-Heck reactions are reported. The reactions employ piperidine-appended imidazolium ionic liquid [PAIM][NTf2] as a task-specific basic-IL, butyl-methyl-imidazolium ionic liquid [BMIM][X] (X?=?PF6, BF4) as solvent, and catalytic amounts of Pd(OAc)2 with no other additives. Wittig and Horner-Emmons reactions are effected by reacting substituted benzaldehydes with 4-bromobenzyl-PPh3 (or bromomethyl-PPh3) phosphonium salts, or diethylphosphonate with bromobenzaldehydes respectively, to form the corresponding ethenes. Subsequent cross-coupling reactions are accomplished by addition of aryl-boronic acid or phenyl-ethenes along with Pd(OAc)2 to bring about the aforementioned hyphenated transformations. The feasibility to perform double-olefination via Wittig and Horner-Emmons reactions with dialdehydes to form highly conjugated bis-styryl and bis-enoate compounds is also shown. The [BMIM][X] solvent is recycled and reused.

- Tethered NHC Ligands for Stereoselective Alkyne Semihydrogenations
-
A copper(I)-catalyzed semihydrogenation of internal alkynes has been developed. A variety of oxygen- and nitrogen-tethered N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes have been investigated, leading to a highly Z-selective transformation. The catalyst is generated from inexpensive copper(I) chloride in situ and allows catalytic semihydrogenation down to 10 bar H2.

- Selective Semihydrogenation of Alkynes with N-Graphitic-Modified Cobalt Nanoparticles Supported on Silica
-
For the first time N-graphitic-modified cobalt nanoparticles (Co/phen@SiO2-800) are shown to be active in the semihydrogenation of alkynes to alkenes. Key to success for efficient catalysis is both the modification of the metal nanoparticles by nitrogen-doped graphitic layers and the use of silica as support. Several internal alkynes are converted to the Z isomer in high yields with up to 93% selectivity. In addition, a variety of terminal alkynes, including sensitive functionalized compounds, are readily converted into terminal alkenes. Notably, this non-noble-metal catalyst allows for the purification of alkenes by selective hydrogenation of the corresponding alkyne in the presence of an excess of olefin.

- Aminofluorination of Cyclopropanes: A Multifold Approach through a Common, Catalytically Generated Intermediate
-
We have discovered a highly regioselective aminofluorination of cyclopropanes. Remarkably, four unique sets of conditions-two photochemical, two purely chemical-generated the same aminofluorinated adducts in good to excellent yields. The multiple, diverse ways in which the reaction could be initiated provided valuable clues that led to the proposal of a "unifying" chain propagation mechanism beyond initiation, tied by a common intermediate. In all, the proposed mechanism herein is substantiated by product distribution studies, kinetic analyses, LFERs, Rehm-Weller estimations of ΔGET, competition experiments, KIEs, fluorescence data, and DFT calculations. From a more physical standpoint, transient-absorption experiments have allowed direct spectroscopic observation of radical ion intermediates (previously only postulated or probed indirectly in photochemical fluorination systems) and, consequently, have provided kinetic support for chain propagation. Lastly, calculations suggest that solvent may play an important role in the cyclopropane ring-opening step.

- Synthesis and characterization of a novel magnetic nano-palladium Schiff base complex: application in cross-coupling reactions
-
A novel and task-specific nano-magnetic Schiff base ligand with phosphate spacer using 2-aminoethyl dihydrogen phosphate instead of usual coating agents, i.e. tetraethoxysilane and 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, for coating of nano-magnetic Fe3O4 is introduced. The nano-magnetic Schiff base ligand with phosphate spacer as a novel catalyst was synthesized and fully characterized using infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopies, thermogravimetry, derivative thermogravimetry, vibrating sample magnetometry, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The resulting task-specific nano-magnetic Schiff base ligand with phosphate spacer was successfully employed as a magnetite Pd nanoparticle-supported catalyst for Sonogashira and Mizoroki–Heck C–C coupling reactions. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of the synthesis and applications of magnetic nanoparticles of Fe3O4@O2PO2(CH2)2NH2 as a suitable spacer for the preparation of a designable Schiff base ligand and its corresponding Pd complex. So the present work can open up a new and promising insight in the course of rational design, synthesis and applications of various task-specific magnetic nanoparticle complexes.

- Geometry constrained N-(5,6,7-trihydroquinolin-8-ylidene)arylaminopalladium dichloride complexes: Catalytic behavior toward methyl acrylate (MA), methyl acrylate-co-norbornene (MA-co-NB) polymerization and heck coupling
-
A new pair of plladium complexes (Pd4 and Pd5) ligated with constrained N-(5,6,7-trihydroquinolin-8-ylidene)arylamine ligands have been prepared and well characterized by 1H-, 13C-NMR and FTIR spectroscopies as well as elemental analysis. The molecular structure of Pd4 and Pd5 in solid state have also been determined by X-ray diffraction, showing slightly distorted square planar geometry around the palladium metal center. All complexes Pd1-Pd5 are revealed highly efficient catalyst in methyl acrylate (MA) polymerization as well as methyl acrylate/norbornene (MA/NB) copolymerization. In the case of MA polymerization, as high as 98.4% conversion with high molecular weight up to 6282 kg·mol-1 was achieved. Likewise, Pd3 complex has good capability to incorporate about 18% NB content into MA polymer chains. Furthermore, low catalyst loadings (0.002 mol %) of Pd4 or Pd5 are able to efficiently mediate the coupling of haloarenes with styrene affording up to 98% conversion.

- Immobilized NNN Pd-complex on magnetic nanoparticles: Efficient and reusable catalyst for Heck and Sonogashira coupling reactions
-
A highly efficient and easily recyclable magnetic nanoparticle supported palladium catalyst was developed and applied in the Heck and Sonogashira reactions in order to show its catalytic applicability in Pd-catalyzed C-C coupling protocols. The catalyst was prepared using a simple chemical process. First, the prepared Fe3O4@SiO2 nanoparticles were reacted with (3-chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane (3-CPTMS) in order to synthesis chloro-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (CPS-MNPs). The substitution reaction of synthetic NNN ligand with CPS-MNPs yields the production of CPS-MNPs-NNN ligand. Finally, immobilization of palladium species on CPS-MNPs-NNN ligand surface afforded CPS-MNPs-NNN-Pd catalyst. The structure and morphology of the prepared nanocatalyst was characterized using various methods such as SEM, TEM, XPS, EDX, CHN, ICP, XRD, FT-IR and VSM techniques. The TEM images show that the sizes of the palladium catalyst are in the range of 8-15 nm. The Heck and Sonogashira coupling reactions were performed in the presence of a catalytic amount of this catalyst system (0.5 mol%) and good yields of products were obtained. Due to the magnetic nature of the catalyst it can be separated from the reaction mixture easily by applying an external magnetic field. Heterogeneity tests affirmed that the catalytic activity stayed indefectible during multiple reaction cycles.

- Synthesis and tyrosinase inhibition activity of trans-stilbene derivatives
-
Synthesis of a focussed library of trans-stilbene compounds through Wittig and other base catalysed condensation reactions is presented. The synthesized stilbenes were screened for their inhibitory potential against murine tyrosinase activity to explore the structure activity relationship (SAR). Presence of electron withdrawing group (-CN) at the double bond and hydroxyl group or halogen atom especially at para-position on the aromatic rings was found to significantly elevate the inhibitory activity. Among all the compounds screened, compounds 2, 6, 8, 10, 11, 15 and 21 were found to exhibit appreciable inhibitory activity. Compound 21 ((E)-2,3-bis(4-Hydroxyphenyl)acryonitrile) was found to be the most active with an IC50 value of 5.06 μM which is less than half of the value 10.78 μM observed for resveratrol (common standard used in murine tyrosinase activity studies) under similar conditions. The results obtained from the present study reveal structural/functional group sensitivity for the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of stilbenoid moieties and are expected to be very helpful for the design and synthesis of novel, selective and effective tyrosinase inhibitors.

- E- and Z-Selective Transfer Semihydrogenation of Alkynes Catalyzed by Standard Ruthenium Olefin Metathesis Catalysts
-
Selective transfer semihydrogenation of alkynes to yield alkenes was achieved with commercial first and second generation Hoveyda-Grubbs catalysts and formic acid as a hydrogen donor. This catalytic system is distinguished by its selectivity and compatibility with many functional groups (halogens, cyano, nitro, sulfide, alkenes). The metathetic activity of the ruthenium catalysts may be utilized in tandem sequences of olefin metathesis plus alkyne reduction.

- Z-Stereoselective Aza-Peterson Olefinations with Bis(trimethylsilane) Reagents and Sulfinyl Imines
-
Highly stereoselective aza-Peterson olefinations from bench-stable α,α-bis(trimethylsilyl)toluene reagents and N-substituted imines have been achieved using TMSO-/Bu4N+ as Lewis base activator in THF. Remarkably, and for the first time, N-t-butanesulfinyl imines were utilized for the synthesis of Z-stilbenes with excellent selectivities, while N-aryl imines generated E-stilbenes under identical reaction conditions. The protocol proved general for numerous examples with low molecular weight byproducts formed. The origin of the Z-selectivity is proposed to be a result of diastereoselective addition to N-t-butanesulfinyl imines followed by syn-elimination of an in situ formed hypervalent silicate.

- Ligand-Free Heck Reactions of Aryl Iodides: Significant Acceleration of the Rate through Visible Light Irradiation at Ambient Temperature
-
A mild Heck reaction of aryl iodides and olefins was realized by the cooperation of a palladium and a photoredox catalyst under the irradiation of visible light. This protocol works well to synthesize stilbenes with high Z/E ratios and (E)-cinnamates in the absence of ligands at ambient temperature. Control experiments revealed that palladium salt, visible light and photoredox catalyst were all crucial for the achievement of this cross-coupling under mild conditions. (Figure presented.).

- Unsupported Nanoporous Gold Catalyst for Chemoselective Hydrogenation Reactions under Low Pressure: Effect of Residual Silver on the Reaction
-
For the first time, H-H dissociation on an unsupported nanoporous gold (AuNPore) surface is reported for chemoselective hydrogenation of C=C, C=C, C=N, and C=O bonds under mild conditions (8 atm H2 pressure, 90 °C). Silver doping in AuNPore, which was inevitable for its preparation through a process of dealloying of Au-Ag alloy, exhibited a remarkable difference in catalytic activity between two catalysts, Au>99Ag1NPore and Au90Ag10NPore.The former was more active and the latter less active in H2 hydrogenation, while the reverse tendency was observed for O2 oxidation. This marked contrast between H2 reduction and O2 oxidation is discussed. Further, Au>99Ag1NPore showed a high chemoselectivity toward reduction of terminal alkynes in the presence of internal alkynes which was not achieved using supported gold nanoparticle catalysts and other previously known methods. Reductive amination, which has great significance in synthesis of amines due to its atom-economical nature, was also realized using Au>99Ag1NPore, and the Au>99Ag1NPore/H2 system showed a preference for the reduction of aldehydes in the presence of imines. In addition to this high chemoselectivity, easy recovery and high reusability of AuNPore make it a promising heterogeneous catalyst for hydrogenation reactions.

- Air-Driven Potassium Iodide-Mediated Oxidative Photocyclization of Stilbene Derivatives
-
A new method has been developed for the potassium iodide-mediated oxidative photocyclization of stilbene derivatives. Compared with conventional iodine-mediated oxidative photocyclization reactions, this new method requires shorter reaction times and affords cyclized products in yields of 45-97%. This reaction proceeds with a catalytic amount of potassium iodide and works in an air-driven manner without the addition of an external scavenger. The radical-mediated oxidative photocyclization of stilbene derivatives using TEMPO was also investigated.

Schiff bases of 2-(phenylthio)aniline, (C6H5)SC6H4N=CR (R=(o-CH3)(C6H5), (o-OCH3)(C6H5) or (o-CF3)(C6H5)), and their palladium complexes (PdLCl2) were synthesized. The compounds were characterized using 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectroscopy and micro analysis. Also, electrochemical properties of the ligands and Pd(II) complexes were investigated in dimethylformamide-LiClO4 solution with cyclic and square wave voltammetry techniques. The Pd(II) complexes showed both reversible and quasi-reversible processes in the -1.5 to 0.3V potential range. The synthesized Pd(II) complexes were evaluated as catalysts in Mizoroki-Heck and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions.

- Controlled synthesis of uniform palladium nanoparticles on novel micro-porous carbon as a recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for the Heck reaction
-
Novel dual-porous carbon-supported palladium nanoparticle (Pd NP) catalysts were prepared by sequential carbonization and reduction of microporous organic polymer-encaged PdCl2. The diverse pore structure of microporous organic polymers provides a reservoir for the palladium precursors and prevents Pd NPs from sintering during the carbonization and reaction. The microporous structure has a significant effect on the size and dispersion of palladium NPs. The average size of the Pd NPs (in the range of 4-6 nm) was tuned by changing the pore size distribution and the carbonization temperature. The resulting carbon-supported Pd NPs were characterized by TEM, BET, XRD, and XPS and the Pd loading was calculated by AAS. The encaged Pd NP catalysts prepared by this methodology exhibited outstanding stability and reusability in the Heck reaction and could be reused at least 10 times without appreciable loss of activity.

- Enhancing catalytic activity towards Heck-reaction by using 4,5,9,10-tetra(arylimino)pyrenylidenyldipalladium tetrachlorides
-
A series of binuclear 4,5,9,10-tetra(arylimino)pyrenylidenyldipalladium(ii) tetrachloride complexes (Pd1-Pd4) was synthesized and characterized by FT-IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as elemental analysis. The molecular structures of representative complexes Pd1 and Pd2 were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction to reveal a square planar geometry around the palladium centre. The complex Pd1 dissolved in the presence of ethanol to form mono-palladium complex C1, whose structure was also confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. All binuclear palladium complexes promote the Heck cross-coupling reactions with high activities; the reaction can be carried out for various substrates and activators (basic compounds) and also in various solvents. The binuclear palladium complexes exhibit significantly higher efficiency than do their mono-palladium complexes bearing 4,5-bis(arylimino)pyrenylidenes.
