Hydroxyethyl starch nanocapsules (NCs) are potentially interesting hydrophilic drug delivery carriers, since they do not show non-specific interactions with the living cells. Only the presence of a targeting agent on their surface allows them to target specifically the desired site of action. In this paper, we report the synthesis and cell uptake of crosslinked hydroxyethyl starch (HES) NCs decorated with (oligo)mannose, which is an effective targeting agent for macrophage and dendritic cells. The crosslinked HES NCs were prepared via the interfacial polyaddition of HES with 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI) in inverse (water-in-oil) miniemulsion and then functionalized with (oligo)mannose following two different strategies. To compare the activity and availability of a targeting agent, different types of mannose molecules such as α-d-mannopyranosylphenyl isothiocyanate, 3-O-(α-d-mannopyranosyl)-d- mannose and α3,α6-mannotriose were used for the functionalization of NCs. The availability of the mannose was unambiguously assessed by interaction with a fluorescent lectin. Moreover, the accessibility of the pilot molecule was improved by the presence of a PEG linker at the surface of the NCs. To simulate in vivo conditions, where proteins interact with nanoparticles with a possible hindrance of the accessibility to the targeting agent, the mannosylated NCs were first incubated with human serum before interaction with the fluorescent lectin. Enhancement of uptake into dendritic cells demonstrates the targeting ability in in vitro studies. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2013.
Direct Phosphonation of Quinolinones and Coumarins Driven by the Photochemical Activity of Substrates and Products

Light-promoted phosphonation of quinolinones and coumarins was developed without the need for an external photocatalyst. Investigations support a mechanism whereby both starting materials and products act as photosensitizers upon excitation using compact fluorescent light sources to photochemically promote the dissociation of the N-O bond in the pyridinium salt by a single electron transfer pathway. A wide range of quinolinone and coumarin substrates can be utilized in the phosphonation process under mild reaction conditions.
Preparation of 2-picolylarsonic acid and its reductive cleavage by ascorbic acid/iodine and by thiophenol

Contrary to dialkylaminoethyl halides, 2-picolyl chloride reacts with alkaline arsenite to give nearly quantitative yields 2-picolylarsonic acid. This acid is decomposed by ascorbic acid in the presence of catalytic amounts of iodine to 2-picoline and arsenious acid, most likely by hydride transfer from the ascorbic acid. Thiophenol decomposes this arsonic acid very quickly to 2-picoline, diphenyl disulfide and triphenyl trithioarsenite. In this case a proton from the thiophenol is transferred to the incipient 2-picolyl carbanion.

Coordination Chemistry of Borane in Solution: Application to a STING Agonist
Lemaire, Sébastien,Zhdanko, Alexander,van der Worp, Boris A.
, (2022/04/09)
Equilibrium constants were determined for ligand exchange reactions of borane complexes with various oxygen, sulfur, nitrogen, and phosphorus nucleophiles in solution, and a binding affinity scale was built spanning a range of 12 orders of magnitude. While the Keq are minimally dependent on the solvent, the rate of ligand exchange varies significantly. The fastest and slowest rates were observed in THF and CDCl3, respectively. Moreover, the ligand exchange rate differs in a very broad range depending on stability of the starting complex. Binding of BH3 was found to be much more sensitive to steric factors than protonation. Comparing nitrogen bases having equal steric properties, a linear correlation of BH3 binding affinity vs. Br?nsted acidity was found. This correlation can be used to quickly estimate the BH3 binding affinity of a substrate if pKa is known. Kinetic studies suggest the ligand exchange to occur as a bimolecular SN2 reaction unless other nucleophilic species were present in the reaction mixture.

Molecularly derived single-site heterogeneous catalysts can bridge the understanding and performance gaps between conventional homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, guiding the rational design of next-generation catalysts. While impressive advances have been made with well-defined oxide supports, the structural complexity of other supports and the nature of the grafted surface species present an intriguing challenge. In this study, single-site Mo(-O)2 species grafted onto reduced graphene oxide (rGO/MoO2) are characterized by XPS, DRIFTS, powder XRD, N2 physisorption, NH3-TPD, aqueous contact angle, active site poisoning assay, Mo EXAFS, model compound single-crystal XRD, DFT, and catalytic performance. NH3-TPD reveals that the anchored MoO2 moiety is not strongly acidic, while Mo 3d5/2 XPS assigns the oxidation state as Mo(VI), and XRD shows little rGO periodicity change on MoO2 grafting. Contact angle analysis shows that MoO2 grafting consumes rGO surface polar groups, yielding a more hydrophobic surface. The rGO/MoO2 DRIFTS assigns features at 959 and 927 cm-1 to the symmetric and antisymmetric Mo-O stretching modes, respectively, of an isolated cis-(O-Mo-O) moiety, in agreement with DFT computation. Moreover, the Mo EXAFS rGO/MoO2 structural data are consistent with isolated (C-O)2-Mo(-O)2 species having two Mo-O bonds and two Mo-O bonds at distances of 1.69(3) and 1.90(3) ?, respectively. rGO/MoO2 is also more active than the previously reported AC/MoO2 catalyst, with reductive carbonyl coupling TOFs approaching 1.81 × 103 h-1. rGO/MoO2 is environmentally robust and multiply recyclable with 69 ± 2% of the Mo sites catalytically significant. Overall, rGO/MoO2 is a structurally well-defined and versatile single-site Mo(VI) dioxo heterogeneous catalytic system.
Clean protocol for deoxygenation of epoxides to alkenes: Via catalytic hydrogenation using gold

The epoxidation of olefin as a strategy to protect carbon-carbon double bonds is a well-known procedure in organic synthesis, however the reverse reaction, deprotection/deoxygenation of epoxides is much less developed, despite its potential utility for the synthesis of substituted olefins. Here, we disclose a clean protocol for the selective deprotection of epoxides, by combining commercially available organophosphorus ligands and gold nanoparticles (Au NP). Besides being successfully applied in the deoxygenation of epoxides, the discovered catalytic system also enables the selective reduction N-oxides and sulfoxides using molecular hydrogen as reductant. The Au NP catalyst combined with triethylphosphite P(OEt)3 is remarkably more reactive than solely Au NPs. The method is not only a complementary Au-catalyzed reductive reaction under mild conditions, but also an effective procedure for selective reductions of a wide range of valuable molecules that would be either synthetically inconvenient or even difficult to access by alternative synthetic protocols or by using classical transition metal catalysts.
