Azophosphonium salts have a facile synthesis and can be readily tuned at the para position of the aryl group and at the phosphorus position with the use of bulky phosphines, leading to a range of coloured compounds. A relation between the Hammett σ+para constant and the colour and 31P NMR chemical shift was explored. The compounds were characterised by NMR spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectroscopy and single-crystal X-ray structure crystallography.

The development of chemoselective and heterogeneous earth-abundant metal catalysts is essential for environmentally friendly chemical synthesis. We report a highly efficient, chemoselective, and reusable single-site nickel(II) hydride catalyst based on robust and porous aluminum metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) (DUT-5) for hydrogenation of nitro and nitrile compounds to the corresponding amines and hydrogenolysis of aryl ethers under mild conditions. The nickel-hydride catalyst was prepared by the metalation of aluminum hydroxide secondary building units (SBUs) of DUT-5 having the formula of Al(μ2-OH)(bpdc) (bpdc = 4,4′-biphenyldicarboxylate) with NiBr2 followed by a reaction with NaEt3BH. DUT-5-NiH has a broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance in the hydrogenation of aromatic and aliphatic nitro and nitrile compounds under 1 bar H2 and could be recycled and reused at least 10 times. By changing the reaction conditions of the hydrogenation of nitriles, symmetric or unsymmetric secondary amines were also afforded selectively. The experimental and computational studies suggested reversible nitrile coordination to nickel followed by 1,2-insertion of coordinated nitrile into the nickel-hydride bond occurring in the turnover-limiting step. In addition, DUT-5-NiH is also an active catalyst for chemoselective hydrogenolysis of carbon-oxygen bonds in aryl ethers to afford hydrocarbons under atmospheric hydrogen in the absence of any base, which is important for the generation of fuels from biomass. This work highlights the potential of MOF-based single-site earth-abundant metal catalysts for practical and eco-friendly production of chemical feedstocks and biofuels.

The use of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) as photocatalysts is a promising and growing area of research. Given the diverse architectures, linkers, and metals, it is important to understand their effects on catalysis. Herein we compare six MOFs of the UiO-66 family towards photocatalytic reduction of nitro-aromatics to anilines. These MOFs differ in metal identity (Hf, Zr) and linker, and hence this systematic study provides insights to developing next generation MOFs. We found that Hf-based MOFs are superior to the more commonly studied Zr-analogues. Moreover, the linker identity also impact the photocatalysis, with pyridine-based linkers out-performing aniline based linkers and those that lack an embedded basic site. The MOFs studied have unique selectivities for the photoreduction and also allow for the one-pot synthesis of imines from aromatic aldehydes and nitro-aromatics.
