Whole seeds of Bauhinia variegata L. (Fabaceae) were utilized as a biological reducer to transform benzaldehyde into benzyl alcohol. The effects of some variables such as temperature, the load of substrate and co-solvent, were established to optimize the reductive process. Utilizing the optimal reaction conditions, a laboratory-scale reaction (final concentration of the substrate: 21.2 mM) was performed to obtain benzyl alcohol (conversion: 95%; isolated yield: 49%; productivity: 1.11 g L?1 or 0.046 g L?1h?1 of benzyl alcohol). In addition, using these optimal conditions, fourteen substituted benzaldehydes were reduced, with a conversion achieved to their corresponding benzyl alcohols ranging from 62% to >99% (isolated yields from 7% to 70%). Moreover, useful building blocks by the synthesis of the drugs and important commercial products were also obtained. The scope, limitations and advantages of this new biocatalytic synthetic method are also discussed.

Fabrication of highly dispersed ultrafine noble metal nanoparticle (NMNP) based catalysts with high stability and excellent catalytic performance is a challenging issue for heterogeneous catalysis. As an alternative complement to existing solutions, herein, we designed and synthesized a stable triazinyl-pentaerythritol porous organic polymer (TP-POP) through a facile polycondensation between cyanuric chloride and pentaerythritol. The obtained TP-POP material has a three-dimensional folded structure, rich triazinyl groups, abundant hydrophobic pores and high thermal stability. Ultrafine Pd NPs with a narrow size distribution (1.4-2.8 nm) are then successfully confined in the organic pores of the TP-POP, through a reversed double solvent approach (RDSA). It is worth noting that the current strategy can effectively confine Pd NPs in the inner space of the TP-POP, and successfully avoids the agglomeration of Pd NPs as compared with the common impregnation-reduction method. The as-prepared Pd@TP-POP catalyst shows excellent catalytic activity in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol and transfer hydrogenation of aromatic aldehydes under very mild conditions. The excellent performance of the Pd@TP-POP catalyst is attributed to the abundant mesopores of the TP-POP which can enhance the accessibility of the highly dispersed ultrafine Pd NP active sites that are confined in the organic pores. More importantly, the Pd@TP-POP catalyst is easily recycled and highly stable without loss of its catalytic activity even after ten reaction cycles. Therefore, this study provides a new platform for designing and fabricating stable POP materials to confine size-controlled NMNPs with superior catalytic performance for various potential catalysis applications.

, p. 621 - 627 (1999)
The biotransformation of a series of aromatic aldehydes such as benzaldehyde, salicy aldehyde, methoxybenzaldehydes and mono- and dichlorobenzaldehydes by five cultures of photosynthetic microalgae are reported. The microalgae, Chlorella minutissima, Nannochloris atomus, Dunaliella parva, Porphyridium purpureum and Isochrysis galbana, reduced most of the aldehydes to the corresponding primary alcohols. Substituted aromatic aldehydes were reduced with varying selectivity depending on the nature and position of the substituent.

A novel silylene supported iron hydride [Si, C]FeH (PMe3)3 (1) was synthesized by C (sp3)-H bond activation with zero-valent iron complex Fe (PMe3)4. Complex 1 was fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. To the best of our knowledge, 1 is the first example of silylene-based hydrido chelate iron complex produced through activation of the C (sp3)?H bond. It was found that complex 1 exhibited excellent catalytic activity for hydrosilylation of aldehydes and ketones. The catalytic system showed good tolerance and catalytic activity for the substrates with different functional groups on the benzene ring. It is worth mentioning that, the experimental results showed that both ketones and aldehydes could be reduced in good to excellent yields under the same catalytic conditions. Based on the experiments and literature reports, a possible catalytic mechanism was proposed.

ERα controls the breast tissue development and progression of breast cancer. In our search for novel compounds to target Estrogen Receptor Alpha Ligand-Binding Domain, we identified “N-(3-((1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)methoxy)phenyl)acetamide” derivatives as lead compounds. The Docking studies indicated good docking score for Metacetamol derivatives when docked into the 1XP6. A series of metacetamol derivatives have been synthesized, characterized and evaluated for cytotoxicity, anti bacterial and anti oxidant activities. Among the tested twelve hybrid compounds, “7a, 7g, 7h and 7i” derivatives showed promising cytotoxicity with IC50 value of 50 value of 30 μM, whereas Compounds “7a, 7b, 7c, 7d, 7g, 7j, 7k and 7l” showed moderate anti bacterial activity with the MIC value of 300 μM.

Five [PSiP]-pincer iron hydrides 1-5, [(2-Ph2PC6H4)2HSiFe(H)(PMe3)2 (1), (2-Ph2PC6H4)2MeSiFe(H)(PMe3)2 (2), (2-Ph2PC6H4)2PhSiFe(H)(PMe3)2 (3), (2-(iPr)2PC6H4)2HSiFe(H)(PMe3) (4), and (2-(iPr)2PC6H4)2MeSiFe(H)(PMe3)2 (5)], were used as catalysts to study the effects of pyridine N-oxide and the electronic properties of [PSiP]-ligands on the catalytic hydrosilylation of carbonyl compounds. It was proved for the first time that this catalytic process could be promoted with pyridine N-oxide as the initiator at 30 °C because the addition of pyridine N-oxide is beneficial for the formation of an unsaturated hydrido iron complex, which is the key intermediate in the catalytic mechanism. Complex 4 as the best catalyst shows excellent catalytic performance. Among the five complexes, complex 3 was new and the molecular structure of complex 3 was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. A proposed mechanism was discussed.

We report the development of a facile protocol for the deoxygenative hydroboration of aliphatic and aryl carboxylic acids to afford corresponding primary alcohols under solvent-free and catalyst-free conditions. The reaction proceeds under ambient temperature exhibits good tolerance towards various functional groups and generates quantitative yields. The plausible mechanism involves the formation of Lewis acid-base adducts as well as the liberation of hydrogen gas.

Selenophenolato hydrido iron(II) complexes 1–3 cis-[(H)(SeAr)Fe(PMe3)4] (Ar = C6H5 (1), p-MeOC6H4 (2) and o-MeC6H4 (3)) could catalyze transfer hydrogenation of aldehydes and ketones. Among the three complexes, catalyst 1 exhibited the highest catalytic activity. The catalytic reactions took place under very mild conditions, using isopropanol as solvent and hydrogen source, tBuONa as base under 60–80 °C. This catalytic system has good tolerance for many functional groups, such as halides, C[dbnd]C double bonds, nitro groups and cyano groups at the phenyl ring of the substrates.

We report the synthesis of a novel bidentate N-heterocyclic silylene (NHSi) ligand, N-(LSi:)-N-methyl-2-pyridinamine (1) (L = PhC(NtBu)2), and the first bischelate disilylene iron hydride, [(Si,N)(Si,C)Fe(H)(PMe3)] (2), and monosilylene iron hydride, [(Si,C)Fe(H)(PMe3)3] (2′), through Csp2-H activation of the NHSi ligand. Compounds 1 and 2 were fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Density functional theory calculations indicated the multiple-bond character of the Fe-Si bonds and the π back-donation from Fe(II) to the Si(II) center. Moreover, the strong donor character of ligand 1 enables 2 to act as an efficient catalyst for the hydroboration reaction of carbonyl compounds at room temperature. Chemoselective hydroboration is attained under these conditions. This might be the first example of hydroboration of ketones and aldehydes catalyzed by a silylene hydrido iron complex. A catalytic mechanism was suggested and partially experimentally verified.
