A visible-light-promoted atomic substitution reaction for transforming thiocacids into carboxylic acids with dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as the oxygen source has been developed, affording various alkyl and aryl carboxylic acids in over 90% yields. The atomic substitution process proceeds smoothly through the photochemical reactivity of the formed hydrogen-bonding adduct between thioacids and DMSO. A DMSO-involved proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) and the simultaneous generation of thiyl and hydroxyl radicals are proposed to be key steps for realizing the transformation.

Herein, we report the first example of an effective and green approach for the oxidative cleavage of olefins to carboxylic acids using a 1,2-dibutoxyethane/O2 system under clean conditions. This novel oxidation system also has excellent functional-group tolerance and is applicable for large-scale synthesis. The target products were prepared in good to excellent yields by a one-pot sequential transformation without an external initiator, catalyst, and additive.

The development of a novel acetyl nitrate mediated oxidative conversion of methyl ketones to carboxylic acid derivatives is described. By analogy to the haloform reaction and supported by experimental and computational investigation we propose a mechanism for this transformation.

, (2021/11/03)
The invention discloses a method for preparing iodo-benzoic acid (ester) by improving a moral reaction, and belongs to the technical field of organic synthesis. The method comprises the following steps: preparing and separating the diazonium tetrafluoroborate through diazotization of aminobenzoic acid (ester) and then performing iodination reaction with the iodinated reagent in an organic medium to obtain the corresponding iodo carboxylic acid (ester). The iodo-benzoic acid (ester) prepared by the method has high purity. The method has the advantages of good quality and simple post-treatment, and the product yield reaches 70 - 90%.

In this report, tetrabutylammonium tribromide (TBATB) was introduced as an efficient visible light active catalyst to carry out the aerobic oxidation of toluene, its derivatives, and some of methyl arenes to benzaldehydes, benzoic acids and ketones in good to high yields. All the oxidation reactions were performed under mild conditions using oxygen as a green oxidant, a catalytic amount of TBATB under blue (460 nm), royal blue (430 nm), and violet LED (400 nm) irradiation. It was found that the reactions selectivity was significantly affected by changing the solvent (from CH3CN to EtOAc) and LED wavelength (from blue to violet). In the following, our mechanistic studies revealed that the visible light oxidation of toluenes and methyl arenes over TBATB could be following a benzyl peroxy radical intermediate.

A brief, efficient method has been developed for the removal of the allyl protecting group from allyl carboxylic esters using a Co(II)/TBHP/(Me2SiH)2O catalytic system. This facile strategy displays excellent chemoselectivity, functional group tolerance, and high yields. This transformation probably occurs through the hydrogen atom transfer process, and a Co(III)-six-membered cyclic intermediate is recommended.

Two highly efficient metal-organic framework catalysts TJU-68-NHPI and TJU-68-NDHPI have been successfully synthesized through solvothermal reactions of which the frameworks are merged with N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) units, resulting in the decoration of pore surfaces with highly active nitroxyl catalytic sites. When t-butyl nitrite (TBN) is used as co-catalyst, the as-synthesized MOFs are demonstrated to be highly efficient and recyclable catalysts for a novel three-phase heterogeneous oxidation of activated C?H bond of primary and secondary alcohols, and benzyl compounds under mild conditions. Based on the high efficiency and selectivity, an environmentally benign system with good sustainability, mild conditions, simple work-up procedure has been established for practical oxidation of a wide range of substrates.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.A.) is a human pathogen belonging to the top priorities for the discovery of new therapeutic solutions. Its propensity to generate biofilms strongly complicates the treatments required to cure P.A. infections. Herein, we describe the synthesis of a series of novel rotaxanes composed of a central galactosylated pillar[5]arene, a tetrafucosylated dendron, and a tetraguanidinium subunit. Besides the high affinity of the final glycorotaxanes for the two P.A. lectins LecA and LecB, potent inhibition levels of biofilm growth were evidenced, showing that their three subunits work synergistically. An antibiofilm assay using a double δlecAδlecB mutant compared to the wild type demonstrated that the antibiofilm activity of the best glycorotaxane is lectin-mediated. Such antibiofilm potency had rarely been reached in the literature. Importantly, none of the final rotaxanes was bactericidal, showing that their antibiofilm activity does not depend on bacteria killing, which is a rare feature for antibiofilm agents.
Cleavage of Carboxylic Esters by Aluminum and Iodine

, p. 4254 - 4261 (2021/03/09)
A one-pot procedure for deprotecting carboxylic esters under nonhydrolytic conditions is described. Typical alkyl carboxylates are readily deblocked to the carboxylic acids by the action of aluminum powder and iodine in anhydrous acetonitrile. Cleavage of lactones affords the corresponding ω-iodoalkylcarboxylic acids. Aryl acetylates undergo deacetylation with the participation of the neighboring group. This method enables the selective cleavage of alkyl carboxylic esters in the presence of aryl esters.

Lithium cations were observed to accelerate the hydrolysis of esters with hydroxides (KOH, NaOH, LiOH) in a water/tetrahydrofuran (THF) two-phase system. Yields in the hydrolysis of substituted benzoates and aliphatic esters using the various hydroxides were compared, and the effects of the addition of lithium salt were examined. Moreover, it was presumed that a certain amount of LiOH was dissolved in THF by the coordination of THF with lithium cation and hydrolyzed esters even in the THF layer, as in the reaction by a phase-transfer catalyst.
