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.

A series of pyrrolobenzodiazepine-azepane conjugates linked through different alkane spacers have been prepared and their DNA thermal denaturation studies have been carried out. One of the compound (4b), elevates the DNA helix melting temperature of the CT-DNA by 2.0°C after incubation for 36 h at 37°C.

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.

Tandem ammonia borane dehydrogenation and nitroarenes hydrogenation has been reported as a novel strategy for the preparation of aromatic amines. However, the practical application of this strategy is subjected to the high-cost and tedious preparation of supported noble metal nanocatalysts. The commercially available CuO powder is herein demonstrated to be a robust catalyst for hydrogenation of nitroarenes using ammonia borane as a hydrogen source under mild conditions. Numerous amines (even sterically hindered, halogenated, and diamines) could be obtained through this method. This monometallic catalyst is characteristic of support-free, excellent chemoselectivity, low-cost, and high recyclability, which will favor its future utilization in preparative reduction chemistry. Mechanistic studies are also carried out to clarify that diazene and azoxybenzene are key intermediates of this heterogeneous reduction.

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.
Hydrogenation of nitroarenes catalyzed by a dipalladium complex

A dipalladium complex [Pd2(L)Cl2](PF6)2 (2), via the substitution of (PhCN)2PdCl2 with 5-phenyl-2,8-bis(6′-bipyridinyl)-1,9,10-anthyridine (L) followed by the anion exchange, was found to be a good pre-catalyst for the reduction of nitroarenes to yield the corresponding anilines under atmospheric pressure of hydrogen in methanol. This method provides a straightforward access to a diverse array of functionalized anilines, exhibiting a possible application in synthetic chemistry. The catalytic activity of this complex is enhanced by the di-metallic system via the synergistic effect.
Rapid and convenient conversion of nitroarenes to anilines under microwave conditions using nonprecious metals in mildly acidic medium

Nitroarenes are reduced to the corresponding aniline derivatives using iron or zinc under mild conditions under microwave heating conditions. Mild acidity is provided by ammonium chloride in an aqueous methanol medium. The conditions are tolerant to other functional groups, with the exception of bromoalkyl derivatives, which yield complex reaction mixtures; otherwise, yields are generally quite high (80–99%).

The Baeyer–Villiger oxidation is a key transformation for sustainable chemical synthesis, especially when H2O2 and solid materials are employed as oxidant and catalyst, respectively. 4-substituted cycloketones, which are readily available from renewables, present excellent platforms for Baeyer–Villiger upgrading. Such substrates exhibit substantially higher levels of activity and produce lactones at higher levels of lactone selectivity at all values of substrate conversion, relative to non-substituted cyclohexanone. For 4-isopropyl cyclohexanone, which is readily available from β-pinene, continuous upgrading was evaluated in a plug-flow reactor. Excellent selectivity (85 % at 65 % conversion), stability, and productivity were observed over 56 h, with over 1000 turnovers (mol product per mol Sn) being achieved with no loss of activity. A maximum space–time yield that was almost twice that for non-substituted cyclohexanone was also obtained for this substrate [1173 vs. 607 g(product) kg(catalyst)?1 cm?3 h?1]. The lactone produced is also shown to be of suitable quality for ring opening polymerization. In addition to demonstrating the viability of the Sn-β/H2O2 system to produce renewable lactone monomers suitable for polymer applications, the substituted alkyl cyclohexanones studied also help to elucidate steric, electronic, and thermodynamic elements of this transformation in greater detail than previously achieved.

Polystyrene-supported ruthenium nanoparticles enable the selective hydrazine-mediated reduction of nitroarenes to hydroxylamine products in high yield and selectivity. Key to obtaining the hydroxylamine product in good yield was the use of organic solvents capable of solubilizing the polystyrene-supported nanoparticle catalyst. N-aryl and N-heteroaryl hydroxylamines are generated under exceptionally mild conditions and in the presence of a various easily reduced functional groups.
Well-structured bimetallic surface capable of molecular recognition for chemoselective nitroarene hydrogenation

Unprecedented molecular recognition ability governed by a simple bimetallic surface is reported. A series of Rh-based ordered alloys supported on silica gel (RhxMy/SiO2, where M is Bi, Fe, Ga, Ge, In, Ni, Pb, Sb, Sn, or Zn) were tested in the hydrogenation of nitrostyrene to form aminostyrene. RhIn/SiO2 showed remarkably high catalytic activity and good selectivity under 1 atm H2 at room temperature. Moreover, various other nitroarenes containing carbonyl, cyano, or halo moieties were selectively hydrogenated into the corresponding amino derivatives using RhIn/SiO2. Kinetic study and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed that the high selectivity originates from RhIn/SiO2 adsorbing nitro groups much more favorably than vinyl groups. In addition, the DFT calculations indicated that the RhIn ordered alloy presents concave Rh rows and convex In rows on its surface, which are able to capture the nitro group with end-on geometry while effectively minimizing vinyl-π adsorption. Thus, the specific and highly ordered surface structure of RhIn enables the chemoselective molecular recognition of nitro groups over vinyl groups through geometric and chemical effects.
