Oxidative cyanation of aldehydes provides a promising strategy for the cyanide-free synthesis of organic nitriles. Design of robust and cost-effective catalysts is the key for this route. Herein, we designed a series of Se,S,N-tri-doped carbon nanosheets with a hierarchical porous structure (denoted as Se,S,N-CNs-x, x represents the pyrolysis temperature). It was found that the obtained Se,S,N-CNs-1000 was very selective and efficient for oxidative cyanation of various aldehydes including those containing other oxidizable groups into the corresponding nitriles using ammonia as the nitrogen resource below 100 °C. Detailed investigations revealed that the excellent performance of Se,S,N-CNs-1000 originated mainly from the graphitic-N species with lower electron density and synergistic effect between the Se, S, N, and C in the catalyst. Besides, the hierarchically porous structure could also promote the reaction. Notably, the unique feature of this metal-free catalyst is that it tolerated other oxidizable groups, and showed no activity on further reaction of the products, thereby resulting in high selectivity. As far as we know, this is the first work for the synthesis of nitriles via oxidative cyanation of aldehydes over heterogeneous metal-free catalysts.

In this study, we found a green method to obtain aryl nitriles from aromatic aldehyde in water. This simple process was modified from a conventional method. Compared with those approaches, we used water as the solvent instead of harmful chemical reagents. In this one-pot conversion, we got twenty-five aryl nitriles conveniently with pollution to the environment being minimized. Furthermore, we confirmed the reaction mechanism by capturing the intermediates, aldoximes.

The invention discloses a method for hydrolyzing a diarylether compound to generate an arylphenol compound. According to the method, visible light is utilized to excite a photosensitizer for catalysis. In a reaction solvent, the raw material in the formula (1) breaks a C (sp2)-O bond under the auxiliary action of acid, and hydrolysis is performed to obtain the bimolecular aryl phenol compounds in the formula (3) and the formula (4). The method can catalyze the reaction at room temperature, is green and environment-friendly, and is easy to operate; the universality is wide, the reaction yield is relatively high, and the tolerance of functional groups is strong; the synthesis method not only can realize small-scale hydrolysis conversion of various diarylether compounds, but also can realize hydrolysis of herbicidal ether, triclosan and a lignin template substrate, and even can realize large-scale hydrolysis of triclosan and the lignin template substrate to realize gram-level degradation. A new strategy is provided for recovering phenol derivatives through lignin hydrolysis, degrading pesticides and purifying wastewater containing a degerming agent or herbicide. The method has wide application prospect and use value.

The development of non-covalent synthetic strategy to fabricate efficient photocatalysts is of great importance in theranostic and organic materials. Herein, a fluorochrome N,N′-dimethyl 2,5-bis(4-pyridinium)thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazolediiodide (MPT) was transformed into an efficient photocatalyst through supramolecular dimerization in the cavity of cucurbit[8]uril (CB[8]). The host-enhanced charge transfer interaction within the supramolecular dimer 2MPT-CB[8] dramatically promoted intersystem crossing to produce triplet. In addition, the staggered conformation of 2MPT-CB[8] facilitated the energy transfer and electron transfer of the triplet. As a result, 2MPT-CB[8] could serve as a high-efficiency photocatalyst for the oxidative hydroxylation of arylboronic acids. This supramolecular dimerization strategy enriches the supramolecular engineering of functional π-systems. It is anticipated that this strategy can be extended to fabricate various π-systems with tailor-made functions.

The design and development of an oxime-based hydroxylation reagent, which can chemoselectively convert aryl halides (X = F, Cl, Br, I) into phenols under operationally simple, transition-metal-free conditions is described. Key to the success of this approach was the identification of a reducing oxime anion which can interact and couple with open-shell aryl radicals. Experimental and computational studies support the proposed radical-nucleophilic substitution chain mechanism.

Reductive cyanation of organic chlorides using CO2 and NH3 via Triphos–Ni(I) species

Cyano-containing compounds constitute important pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and organic materials. Traditional cyanation methods often rely on the use of toxic metal cyanides which have serious disposal, storage and transportation issues. Therefore, there is an increasing need to develop general and efficient catalytic methods for cyanide-free production of nitriles. Here we report the reductive cyanation of organic chlorides using CO2/NH3 as the electrophilic CN source. The use of tridentate phosphine ligand Triphos allows for the nickel-catalyzed cyanation of a broad array of aryl and aliphatic chlorides to produce the desired nitrile products in good yields, and with excellent functional group tolerance. Cheap and bench-stable urea was also shown as suitable CN source, suggesting promising application potential. Mechanistic studies imply that Triphos-Ni(I) species are responsible for the reductive C-C coupling approach involving isocyanate intermediates. This method expands the application potential of reductive cyanation in the synthesis of functionalized nitrile compounds under cyanide-free conditions, which is valuable for safe synthesis of (isotope-labeled) drugs.

Two microporous coordination polymers based on hourglass trinuclear building units, [Mn3(bpdc)3(bpy)]·2DMF and [Zn3(bpdc)3(bpy)]·2DMF·4H2O (bpdc = 4,4′-biphenyl dicarboxylic acid, bpy = 4,4′-bipyridine), have been synthesized under solvothermal conditions employing DMF as the solvent. Each structure consists of two crystallographically distinct M2+(M1 and M2) centers that are connectedviacarboxylate bridges from six bpdc ligands, generating a trinuclear metal cluster, [M3(bpdc)3(bpy)]. Cluster representation of the structure resulted in an interpenetrated net of rarehextopological type. Catalytic activities of the CPs have been assessed for the oxidative hydroxylation of phenylboronic acids (PBAs) using aqueous hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Various substituted aryl/hetero-arylboronic acids RB(OH)2[R = phenyl, 2,4-difluorophenyl, 4-aminophenyl, 2-thiopheneetc.] underwentipso-hydroxylation smoothly at room temperature to generate the corresponding phenols in excellent yields. The main advantages of this protocol are the aqueous medium reaction, heterogeneous catalytic system, and short reaction time with excellent yield.

, p. 7927 - 7932 (2020/03/11)
We report herein the synthesis of a polymeric photosensitizer and its application in aerobic photooxidative hydroxylation of boronic acids. The polymeric photosensitizer was synthesized by the condensation of anthraquinone-2-carbonyl chloride (AQ-2-COCl) with poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA). The photo-oxidative hydroxylation of boronic acids using anthraquinone-containing-poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (AQ-PHEMA) was then explored and shown to exhibit high efficiency and broad scope. Moreover, AQ-PHEMA could be easily recovered and reused for more than 20 times without significant loss of the catalytic activity.

A straightforward and mild oxidative ipso-hydroxylation of arylboronic acids has been achieved using a simple and non-noble metal, nickel-based reusable heterogeneous catalyst Ni(HBTC)BPY MOF (HBTC = benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate, BPY = 4,4′-bipyridine) in the presence of benign hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant under ambient reaction condition. The Ni(HBTC)BPY MOF exhibits excellent catalytic activity towards the formation of phenols from diverse arylboronic acids within short time and can be reused up to five times without any notable loss in its activity as well as shown high functional group tolerance even in the presence of sensitive functionalities and useful to achieve hydroxyl group in heterocycles.
