Abstract: A procedure for practical synthesis of CuNPs from CuSO4·5H2O is established, under appropriate reaction conditions, using rice (Oryza sativa) as an economic source of reducing as well as a stabilizing agent. Optical and microscopic techniques are employed for the characterization of the synthesized CuNPs and the sizes of the particles were found to be in the range of 8 ± 2 nm. The nanoparticles are used as a catalyst for chemoselective reduction of aromatic nitro compounds to corresponding amines under ambient conditions and water as a reaction medium. Graphic abstract: CuNPs are synthesized using hydrolysed rice and used as catalyst for chemoselective reduction of nitroarenes to their corresponding amines in water.

Three novel dinuclear Cu(II) complexes based on a N,N,O-chelating salphen-like ligand scaffold and bearing varying aromatic substituents (-H, -Cl, and -Br) have been synthesized and characterized. The experimental and computational data obtained suggest that all three complexes exist in the dimeric form in the solid state and adopt the same conformation. The mass spectrometry and electron paramagnetic resonance results indicate that the dimeric structure coexists with the monomeric form in solution upon solvent (dimethyl sulfoxide and water) coordination. The three synthesized Cu(II) complexes exhibit high potentiality as ROS generators, with the Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox potential inside the biological redox window, and thus being able to biologically undergo Cu(II)/Cu(I) redox cycling. The formation of ROS is one of the most promising reported cell death mechanisms for metal complexes to offer an inherent selectivity to cancer cells. In vitro cytotoxic studies in two different cancer cell lines (HeLa and MCF7) and in a normal fibroblast cell line show promising selective cytotoxicity for cancer cells (IC50 about 25 μM in HeLa cells, which is in the range of cisplatin and improved with respect to carboplatin), hence placing this N,N,O-chelating salphen-like metallic core as a promising scaffold to be explored in the design of future tailor-made Cu(II) cytotoxic compounds.

While electrophilic reagents for histidine labeling have been developed, we report an umpolung strategy for histidine functionalization. A nucleophilic small molecule, 1-methyl-4-arylurazole, selectively labeled histidine under singlet oxygen (1O2) generation conditions. Rapid histidine labeling can be applied for instant protein labeling. Utilizing the short diffusion distance of 1O2 and a technique to localize the 1O2 generator, a photocatalyst in close proximity to the ligand-binding site, we demonstrated antibody Fc-selective labeling on magnetic beads functionalized with a ruthenium photocatalyst and Fc ligand, ApA. Three histidine residues located around the ApA binding site were identified as labeling sites by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. This result suggests that 1O2-mediated histidine labeling can be applied to a proximity labeling reaction on the nanometer scale.

Paragraph 0137-0140, (2020/07/15)
The invention relates to a method for reducing aromatic nitro to arylamine. The method comprises the following steps: (1) taking an aromatic nitro compound as a raw material, water as a hydrogen source, a palladium compound, cheap and easy to obtain, as a catalyst and tetrahydroxydiboron as an additive to reduce nitro to obtain a product; (2) taking the aromatic nitro compound as the raw material, a copper salt, cheap and easy to obtain, as the catalyst, the tetrahydroxydiboron as the additive to reduce the nitro to obtain a product; and (3) taking the aromatic nitro compound as the raw material, water as the hydrogen source, and the tetrahydroxydiboron as the additive, without needing a metal catalyst, to reduce the nitro to obtain a product. A preparation method for the arylamine, which is provided by the invention, is mild in reaction condition, low in costs, environment-friendly, high in yield, and suitable for industrial production.

This Letter describes the development of a TiIII-mediated reaction for the C-H amination of arenes with hydroxylamine. This reaction is applied to a variety of electron-rich (hetero)arene substrates, including a series of natural products and pharmaceuticals. It offers the advantages of mild conditions (room temperature), fast reaction rates (30 min), compatibility with ambient moisture and air, scalability, and the use of inexpensive commercial reagents.
Method for preparing O-phenylenediamine from aniline

, (2020/06/17)
The invention provides a method for preparing o-phenylenediamine from aniline. The method comprises the following steps: protecting an amino group on aniline by using an acetyl group, then mixing withan amino donor, an oxidant and a catalyst Pd-Cu/TS-1 to carry out an ammoniation reaction, carrying out deprotection, and separating to obtain o-phenylenediamine. A protecting group strategy is used,the acetyl group is adopted to protect the amino group on aniline, the catalyst is coordinated with a carbonyl group in acetanilide to induce and activate the o-position C-H bond, so the o-position selectivity is improved, the generation of byproducts is reduced, the ammoniation efficiency and selectivity can be greatly improved, and the yield and purity of o-phenylenediamine are improved; and the o-phenylenediamine is directly prepared from aniline, so the environmental pollution caused by nitrification and chlorination processes is avoided, and the method is more in line with the green andenvironment-friendly synthesis concept.

Photoresponsive ligands are powerful tool compounds for studying receptor function with spatiotemporal resolution. However, to the best of our knowledge, such a ligand is not available for the ryanodine receptor (RyR). Herein, we present a photochromic ligand (PCL) for insect RyR by decorating chlorantraniliprole (CHL) with photoswitchable azobenzene (AB). We demonstrated that one potent ligand, named ABCHL13, shows light-induced reversible trans-cis isomerization and 3.5-fold insecticidal activity decrease toward oriental armyworm (Mythimna separata) after UV-light irradiation, that is, trans-ABCH13 has higher activity than the cis-ABCH13. ABCHL13 enables optical control over intracellular Ca2+ release in dorsal unpaired median (DUM) neurons of M. separata and American cockroach (Periplaneta americana) and cardiac function of P. americana. Our results provide a first photopharmacological toolkit that is applicable to light-dependent regulation of RyR and heart beating.

An efficient Fe(NO3)3·9H2O promoted ortho-nitration reaction of aniline derivatives has been developed. This reaction may go through a nitrogen dioxide radical (NO2) intermediate, which is generated by the thermal decomposition of iron(iii) nitrate. The practicality of the present method using nontoxic and inexpensive iron reagents has been shown by the broad substrate scope and applications.

A ligand-free copper-catalyzed reduction of azaarenes with diboronic acid as reductant in an aprotic solvent under mild conditions has been developed. Most interestingly, the nitroazaarenes could be reduced exclusively to give the corresponding amines without touching the azaarene moieties. Furthermore, the reductive amination of aromatic nitro compounds and aromatic aldehydes has also been realized. A series of hydrogenated azaarenes and secondary amines were obtained with good functional group tolerance.
