Although the olefin metathesis reaction is a well-known and powerful strategy to get alkenes, this reaction remained highly challenging with fluororalkenes, especially the Cross-Metathesis (CM) process. Our thought was to find an easy accessible, convenient, reactive and post-functionalizable source of fluoroalkene, that we found as the methyl 2-fluoroacrylate. We reported herein the efficient ruthenium-catalyzed CM reaction of various terminal and internal alkenes with methyl 2-fluoroacrylate giving access, for the first time, to trisubstituted fluoroalkenes stereoselectively. Unprecedent TON for CM involving fluoroalkene, up to 175, have been obtained and the reaction proved to be tolerant and effective with a large range of olefin partners giving fair to high yields in metathesis products.

In this work, a series of metal–organic framework (MOF)-derived CoPd nanoalloys have been prepared. The nanocatalysts exhibited excellent activities in the hydrogenation of nitroarenes and alkenes in green solvent (ethanol/water) under mild conditions (H2 balloon, room temperature). Using ZIF-67 as template for both carbon matrix and cobalt precursor coating with a mesoporous SiO2 layer, the catalyst CoPd/NC@SiO2 was smoothly constructed. Catalytic results revealed a synergistic effect between Co and Pd components in the hydrogenation process due to the enhanced electron density. The mesoporous SiO2 shell effectively prevented the sintering of hollow carbon and metal NPs at high temperature, furnishing the well-dispersed nanoalloy catalysts and better catalytic performance. Moreover, the catalyst was durable and showed negligible activity decay in recycling and scale-up experiments, providing a mild and highly efficient way to access amines and arenes.

Iron-catalyzed hydromagnesiation of styrene derivatives offers a rapid and efficient method to generate benzylic Grignard reagents, which can be applied in a range of transformations to provide products of formal hydrofunctionalization. While iron-catalyzed methodologies exist for the hydromagnesiation of terminal alkenes, internal alkynes, and styrene derivatives, the underlying mechanisms of catalysis remain largely undefined. To address this issue and determine the divergent reactivity from established cross-coupling and hydrofunctionalization reactions, a detailed study of the bis(imino)pyridine iron-catalyzed hydromagnesiation of styrene derivatives is reported. Using a combination of kinetic analysis, deuterium labeling, and reactivity studies as well as in situ 57Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy, key mechanistic features and species were established. A formally iron(0) ate complex [iPrBIPFe(Et)(CH2a?CH2)]- was identified as the principle resting state of the catalyst. Dissociation of ethene forms the catalytically active species which can reversibly coordinate the styrene derivative and mediate a direct and reversible β-hydride transfer, negating the necessity of a discrete iron hydride intermediate. Finally, displacement of the tridentate bis(imino)pyridine ligand over the course of the reaction results in the formation of a tris-styrene-coordinated iron(0) complex, which is also a competent catalyst for hydromagnesiation.

Enantioenriched aldehydes are produced through asymmetric hydroformylation of styrene derivatives using BIBOP-type ligands. The featured example is enantioselective synthesis of 4-methyl-3,4-dihydroisocoumarin, which was prepared in a 95.1:4.9 enantiomeric ratio from asymmetric hydroformylation of ethyl 2-vinylbenzoate followed by in situ lactonization during the reduction process. The conditions are compatible with both electron-rich and electron-poor substituents.

A simple and efficient approach to enantioenriched α,β-disubstituted γ-butyrolactones has been developed through multifunctional modular organocatalysis in a highly enantioselective (>99% ee) and diastereoselective (>30:1) manner following a one-pot sequential Michael-hemiacetalization-oxidation reaction. The catalytic process has great substrate compatibility, and the products have been transformed to synthetically useful molecules. The methodology has also been applied to the formal synthesis of (+)-Pilocarpine.

A new series of diaryl heptanones (12a-q) were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by its 1H, 13C NMR and Mass spectral data. These analogs were evaluated for their anti-oxidant activity and potential to inhibit 5-lipoxygenase. Compounds 12k and 12o showed potent in vitro 5-lipoxygenase enzyme inhibitory activity with IC50 values of 22.2, 21.5 μM, which are comparable to curcumin (24.4 μM). Further they also have shown significant antioxidant activity. Molecular docking studies clearly showed correlation between binding energy and potency of these compounds.

A novel series of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitors was identified by X-ray crystal analysis of complex structures at solvent-exposed exit pocket C. The 2-amino-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine derivatives, 7-deazapurines substituted with a benzyl moiety at C5, showed potent Hsp90 inhibition and broad-spectrum antiproliferative activity against NCI-60 cancer cell lines. The most potent compound, 6a, inhibited Hsp90 with an IC50of 36?nM and showed a submicromolar mean GI50value against NCI-60 cell lines. The interaction of 6a at the ATP-binding pocket of Hsp90 was confirmed by X-ray crystallography and Western blot analysis.

The 1,4-addition of benzene derivatives to acrolein is a straightforward way to synthesize 3-arylpropanals. A survey of acid catalysts for the 1,4-addition of methoxy-substituted benzenes to acrolein revealed that H-Beta and H-Y were the most suitable catalysts. We hypothesized three side-reactions: (1) the double 1,4-addition of acrolein to the starting benzene derivatives, (2) the Friedel-Crafts-type alkylation to the desired product, and (3) the self-polymerization of acrolein. The type (3) side-reaction was inhibited by two different methods which kept the concentration of acrolein low in the reaction mixture or in the zeolite pores. First, acrolein monomers were in situ generated through the gradual monomerization of an acrolein cyclic trimer. Second, using a reaction solvent lowered the acrolein concentration in the zeolite pores due to the competitive adsorption. We discovered that the content of monomeric acrolein in a solvent was closely related to the polarity of the solvent. Actually, both methods improved the yields for the 1,4-additions of 1,3-dimethoxybenzene to acrolein. Other electron-rich benzene derivatives, such as phenol and N, N-dimethylaniline, were also applicable to the 1,4-addition reactions.

A novel method for organocatalytic oxidation through oxidative enamine catalysis was developed with excellent compatibility for the direct syntheses of enals from simple saturated alcohols. By using this amine-catalyzed IBX-oxidation, a wide range of aromatic and aliphatic substituted enals were successfully generated in high yields and exclusively stereoselective E-geometry. Moreover, varying the solvents and/or the loading amounts of IBX allowed for the selective oxidation of alcohols and aldehydes. Importantly, the homologous application of this method provided a selective and efficient way of preparing various highly sensitive conjugated polyene frameworks, which are enriched in natural products.

An effective palladium-catalyzed regioselective hydroformylation of olefins with formic acid is described. The ligand plays a crucial role in directing the reaction pathway. Linear aldehydes can be obtained in up to 93% yield with >20:1 regioselectivity using 1,3-bis(diphenylphosphino)propane (dppp) as the ligand. The reaction process is operationally simple and requires no syngas.
