Bifunctional Cs?Au/Co3O4 (Basic and Redox)-Catalyzed Oxidative Synthesis of Aromatic Azo Compounds from Anilines

An eco-friendly alkali-promoted (Cs?Au/Co3O4) catalyst, with redox and basic properties for the oxidative dehydrogenative coupling of anilines to symmetrical and unsymmetrical aromatic azo compounds, was developed. We realized a base additive- and molecular O2 oxidant-free process (using air), with reasonable reusability of the catalyst achieved under milder reaction conditions. Notably, the enhanced catalytic activity was also linked to the increased basic site concentration, low reduction temperatures, and the effect of lattice oxygen on the nanomaterials. The increased basic strength of the cation-promoted catalyst improved the electron density of the active Au species, resulting in higher yields of the desired aromatic azo compounds.

Photosensitive and Photoswitchable TRPA1 Agonists Optically Control Pain through Channel Desensitization

Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel, as a nonselective ligand-gated cation channel robustly in dorsal root ganglion sensory neurons, is implicated in sensing noxious stimuli and nociceptive signaling. However, small-molecule tools targeting TRPA1 lack temporal and spatial resolution, limiting their use for validation of TRPA1 as a therapeutic target for pain. In our previous work, we found that 4,4′-(diazene-1,2-diyl)dianiline (AB1) is a photoswitchable TRPA1 agonist, but the poor water solubility and activity hinder its further development. Here, we report a series of specific and potent azobenzene-derived photoswitchable TRPA1 agonists (series 1 and 2) that enable optical control of the TRPA1 channel. Two representative compounds 1g and 2c can alleviate capsaicin-induced pain in the cheek model of mice through channel desensitization but not in TRPA1 knockout mice. Taken together, our findings demonstrate that photoswitchable TRPA1 agonists can be used as pharmacological tools for study of pain signaling.
