The substitution of high-price noble metals such as Ir, Ru, Rh, Pd, and Pt by earth-abundant, inexpensive metals like Co is an attractive goal in (homogeneous) catalysis. Only two examples of Co catalysts, showing efficient C=O bond hydrogenation rates, are described. Here, we report on a novel, easy-to-synthesize Co catalyst family. Catalyst activation takes place via addition of 2 equiv of a metal base to the cobalt dichlorido precatalysts. Aldehydes and ketones of different types (dialkyl, aryl-alkyl, diaryl) are hydrogenated quantitatively under mild conditions partially with catalyst loadings as low as 0.25 mol%. A comparison of the most active Co catalyst with an Ir catalyst stabilized by the same ligand indicates the superiority of Co. Unique selectivity toward C=O bonds in the presence of C=C bonds has been observed. This selectivity is opposite to that of existing Co catalysts and surprising because of the directing influence of a hydroxyl group in C=C bond hydrogenation.

Currently, developing simple and effective catalysts for selective hydrogenation of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes to unsaturated alcohols is challenging. Herein, an efficient CoOx-shell/Co-core structured nanoparticle catalyst is synthesized by a facile ultrasonic-assisted carbothermal reduction method. The resultant catalyst exhibits outstanding catalytic performance toward the selective transfer hydrogenation of a wide spectrum of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes into corresponding unsaturated alcohols with over 90 % selectivity. This is the simplest nonprecious metal catalyst to be reported for the selective hydrogenation of unsaturated aldehydes.

α-Tertiary amines are a common motif in pharmaceutically important molecules but are challenging to prepare using asymmetric catalysis. Here, we demonstrate engineered flavin-dependent ‘ene'-reductases (EREDs) can catalyze radical additions into oximes to prepare this motif. Two different EREDs were evolved into competent catalysts for this transformation with high levels of stereoselectivity. Mechanistic studies indicate that the oxime contributes to the enzyme templated charge-transfer complex formed between the substrate and cofactor. These products can be further derivatized to prepare a variety of motifs, highlighting the versatility of ERED photoenzymatic catalysis for organic synthesis.

Marine natural products derived from special or extreme environment provide an important source for the development of anti-tumor drugs due to their special skeletons and functional groups. In this study, based on our previous work on the total synthesis and structure revision of the novel marine natural product Chrysamide B, a group of its derivatives were designed, synthesized, and subsequently of which the anti-cancer activity, structure-activity relationships and cellular mechanism were explored for the first time. Compared with Chrysamide B, better anti-cancer performance of some derivatives against five human cancer cell lines (SGC-7901, MGC-803, HepG2, HCT-116, MCF-7) was observed, especially for compound b-9 on MGC-803 and SGC-7901 cells with the IC 50 values of 7.88 ± 0.81 and 10.08 ± 1.08 μM, respectively. Subsequently, cellular mechanism study suggested that compound b-9 treatment could inhibit the cellular proliferation, reduce the migration and invasion ability of cells, and induce mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis in gastric cancer MGC-803 and SGC-7901 cells. Furthermore, the mitochondrial-dependent apoptosis induced by compound b-9 is related with the JAK2/STAT3/Bcl-2 signaling pathway. To conclude, our results offer a new structure for the discovery of anti-tumor lead compounds from marine natural products.
