Synthesis of Enaminone-Pd(II) Complexes and Their Application in Catalysing Aqueous Suzuki-Miyaura Cross Coupling Reaction

A series of Pd(II)-enaminone complexes, termed Pd(eao)2, have been synthesized and characterized. The investigation on the catalytic activities of these new Pd(II)-reagents has proved that the Pd(eao)2-1 possesses excellent catalytic activity for the Suzuki- Miyaura cross coupling reactions of aryl bromides/chlorides with aryl/vinyl boronic acids in the environmentally benign media of aqueous PEG400 at low loading (5 mol‰). The superiority of this Pd(II)-reagent to those commercial Pd(II) and Pd(0) catalysts in catalyzing the reactions has been confirmed by parallel experiments. What's more, Pd(eao)2-2 has been found as a practical catalyst for the homo-coupling reactions of aryl boronic acids.

UiO-66 microcrystals catalyzed direct arylation of enol acetates and heteroarenes with aryl diazonium salts in water

UiO-66 is a classic Metal–organic framework (MOF) that constructed by zirconium cations and terephthalate with high chemical and thermal stability. Using pristine UiO-66 nanocrystals as the catalysts, the carbon–carbon bond formation based on denitrogenat

Black phosphorus as a metal-free, visible-light-active heterogeneous photoredox catalyst for the direct C-H arylation of heteroarenes

Black phosphorus (BP) is for the first time employed as a metal-free, heterogeneous photoredox catalyst for the direct C-H arylation of heteroarenes with aryl diazonium salts. The arylated heteroarenes are obtained in moderate to good yields under visible-light illumination, and the protocol is shown to be applicable for the scale-up synthesis.

Metal-Free Aerobic Oxidative Selective C-C Bond Cleavage in Heteroaryl-Containing Primary and Secondary Alcohols

A transition-metal-free aerobic oxidative selective C-C bond-cleavage reaction in primary and secondary heteroaryl alcohols is reported. This reaction was highly efficient and tolerated various heteroaryl alcohols, generating a carboxylic acid derivative and a neutral heteroaromatic compound. Experimental studies combined with density functional theory calculations revealed the mechanism underlying the selective C-C bond cleavage. This strategy also provides an alternative simple approach to carboxylation reaction.

Small-Molecule Covalent Modification of Conserved Cysteine Leads to Allosteric Inhibition of the TEAD?Yap Protein-Protein Interaction

The Hippo pathway coordinates extracellular signals onto the control of tissue homeostasis and organ size. Hippo signaling primarily regulates the ability of Yap1 to bind and co-activate TEA domain (TEAD) transcription factors. Yap1 tightly binds to TEAD4

Diarylureas Containing 5-Membered Heterocycles as CB1 Receptor Allosteric Modulators: Design, Synthesis, and Pharmacological Evaluation

Allosteric modulators have attracted significant interest as an alternate strategy to modulate CB1 receptor signaling for therapeutic benefits that may avoid the adverse effects associated with orthosteric ligands. Here we extended our previous structure-activity relationship studies on the diarylurea-based CB1 negative allosteric modulators (NAMs) by introducing five-membered heterocycles to replace the 5-pyrrolidinylpyridinyl group in PSNCBAM-1 (1), one of the first generation CB1 allosteric modulators. Many of these compounds had comparable potency to 1 in blocking the CB1 agonist CP55,940 stimulated calcium mobilization and [35S]GTP-γ-S binding. Similar to 1, most compounds showed positive cooperativity by increasing [3H]CP55,940 binding, consistent with the positive allosteric modulator (PAM)-antagonist mechanism. Interestingly, these compounds exhibited differences in ability to increase specific binding of [3H]CP55,940 and decrease binding of the antagonist [3H]SR141716. In saturation binding studies, only increases in [3H]CP55,940 Bmax, but not Kd, were observed, suggesting that these compounds stabilize low affinity receptors into a high affinity state. Among the series, the 2-pyrrolyl analogue (13) exhibited greater potency than 1 in the [35S]GTP-γ-S binding assay and significantly enhanced the maximum binding level in the [3H]CP5,5940 binding assay, indicating greater CB1 receptor affinity and/or cooperativity.

Perylenequinonoid-catalyzed photoredox activation for the direct arylation of (het)arenes with sunlight

Naturally occurring perylenequinonoid pigments (PQPs) have attracted considerable attention owing to their excellent properties of photosensitization. They have been widely investigated as an aspect of photophysics and photobiology. However, their applications in photocatalysis are yet to be explored. We report here that sunlight along with 1 mol% cercosporin, which is one of the perylenequinonoid pigments, catalyzes the direct C-H bond arylation of (het)arenes by a photoredox process with good regioselectivity and broad functional group compatibility. Furthermore, a gram-scale reaction with great conversions of substrates was achieved even by a cercosporin-containing supernatant without organic solvent extraction and purification after liquid fermentation. Thus we set up a bridge between microbial fermentation and organic photocatalysis for chemical reactions in a sustainable, environmentally friendly manner.

An Active Palladium Colloidal Catalyst for the Selective Oxidative Heterocoupling of (Hetero)Aryl Boronic Acids

A highly selective oxidative heterocoupling protocol for (hetero)aryl boronic acids with an active palladium colloidal catalyst was developed. The judicious choice of electronically different aryl boronic acids made possible such couplings under mild conditions, with air as oxidant, while embracing a wide substrate scope. This successful approach further allowed the development of a unique one-pot sequential oxidative heterocoupling/Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling tandem process for accessing substituted terphenyls.

DIARYLUREAS AS CB1 ALLOSTERIC MODULATORS

The present invention provides novel diarylurea derivatives (compounds of formula (I)) and their uses. The compounds of the present invention are demonstrated to be allosteric modulators of the CB1 receptor, and therefore useful for the treatment of diseases and conditions mediated by CB1.

Polyaniline-Induced Arylation with Arenediazonium Salts Derived from Anilines

A catalytic amount of a reduced form of polyaniline (a redox-active π-conjugated polymer) was found to induce C?H direct arylation of (hetero)arenes with arenediazonium salts prepared from anilines with methanesulfonic acid (MeSO3H) and tert-butyl nitrite (tBuONO). The difficult part of this method is the coexistence of an oxidant and a reductant in this sequential diazotization and arylation system; diazotization requires weak oxidants such as alkyl nitrites, whereas the arylation is induced by a reductant. This was achieved by the careful control of the amount of tBuONO (1.0 equivalent) for the diazotization step, and sequential arylation using 5 mol % of the polyaniline. The reaction took place under mild conditions without any metals or strong bases at room temperature, and the amino group is a formal leaving group. The scope of the substrates demonstrates the versatility in the combination of anilines with a variety of functional groups and several (hetero)arenes. Two-directional arylation for the synthesis of an unsymmetrical 1,4-diarylated (furyl and pyrrolyl groups) benzene was achieved, using mono-Boc-protected 1,4-phenylenediamine as a substrate. This shows potential for the synthesis of more complicated oligoarene compounds.
