Long alkyl-chain capping ligands are indispensable for preparing stable colloidal quantum dots. However, its insulating feature blocks efficient carrier transport among QDs, leading to inferior performance in light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The trade-off between conductivity and colloidal stability of QDs has now been overcome. Methylamine lead bromide (MAPbBr3) QDs with a conjugated alkyl-amine, 3-phenyl-2-propen-1-amine (PPA), as ligands were prepared. Owing to electron cloud overlapping and the delocalization effect of conjugated molecules, the conductivity and carrier mobility of PPA-QDs films increased almost 22 times over that of OA-QD films without compromising colloidal stability and photoluminescence. PPA-QDs LEDs exhibit a maximum current efficiency of 9.08 cd A?1, which is 8 times of that of OA-QDs LEDs (1.14 cd A?1). This work provides critical solution for the poor conductivity of QDs in applications of energy-related devices.

A chelation-assisted palladium-catalyzed CC bond cleavage of α, β-unsaturated ketone to form alkenyl nitrile in the presence of nitrile is disclosed on the basis of a formal group-exchange reaction formulated as C1C2 + C3 → C1C3 + C2, differing from normal alkene oxidative cleavage and metathesis type. The isolated key active Pd(II) complex as well as deuterium-labeled experiment revealed the necessity of the chelation group, and a plausible catalytic pathway was proposed.

Zirconium-hydride-catalyzed site-selective hydroboration of amides for the synthesis of amines: Mechanism, scope, and application

Developing mild and efficient catalytic methods for the selective synthesis of amines is a longstanding research objective. In this respect, catalytic deoxygenative amide reduction has proven to be promising but challenging, as this approach necessitates selective C–O bond cleavage. Herein, we report the selective hydroboration of primary, secondary, and tertiary amides at room temperature catalyzed by an earth-abundant-metal catalyst, Zr-H, for accessing diverse amines. Various readily reducible functional groups, such as esters, alkynes, and alkenes, were well tolerated. Furthermore, the methodology was extended to the synthesis of bio- and drug-derived amines. Detailed mechanistic studies revealed a reaction pathway entailing aldehyde and amido complex formation via an unusual C–N bond cleavage-reformation process, followed by C–O bond cleavage.
Ammonium Chloride-Promoted Rapid Synthesis of Monosubstituted Ureas under Microwave Irradiation

, p. 5135 - 5146 (2021/10/19)
Monosubstituted ureas are important scaffolds in organic chemistry. They appear in various biologically active compounds and serve as versatile precursors in synthesis. Monosubstituted ureas were originally prepared using toxic and hazardous phosgene equivalents. Modern methods include transamidation of urea and nucleophilic addition to cyanate salts, both of which suffer from a narrow substrate scope due to the need for a strong acid and prolonged reaction times. We hereby report that ammonium chloride can promote the reaction between amines and potassium cyanate to generate monosubstituted ureas in water. This method proceeds rapidly under microwave irradiation and tolerates a broad range of functional groups. Unlike previous strategies, it is compatible with other nucleophiles, acid-labile moieties, and most of the common protecting groups. The products precipitate out of solution, allowing facile isolation without column chromatography.

Conjugated molecules have been typically utilized as either hole or electron extraction layers to boost the device performance of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), formed from three-dimensional (3D) perovskites, due to their high charge carrier mobility and electrical conductivity. However, the passivating role of conjugated molecules in creating two-dimensional (2D) perovskites has rarely been reported. In this study, we report novel conjugated aniline 3-phenyl-2-propen-1-amine (PPA) based 2D perovskites and further demonstrate efficient and stable PSCs containing a (PPA)x(MAPbI3)1?x/MAPbI3bilayer thin film (where MA is CH3NH3+). The (PPA)x(MAPbI3)1?x/MAPbI3bilayer thin film possesses superior crystallinity and passivated trap states, resulting in enhanced charge transport and suppressed charge carrier recombination compared to those of a 3D MAPbI3thin film. As a result, PSCs containing the (PPA)x(MAPbI3)1?x/MAPbI3bilayer thin film exhibit a power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 21.98%, which is approximately a 25% enhancement compared to that of the MAPbI3thin film. Moreover, un-encapsulated PSCs containing the (PPA)x(MAPbI3)1?x/MAPbI3bilayer thin film retain 50% of their initial PCE after 1200 hours in an ambient atmosphere (25 °C, and 30 ± 10 humidity), whereas PSCs with the 3D MAPbI3thin film show significant degradation after 100 hours and a degradation of more than 50% of their original PCE after 500 hours. These results demonstrate that the incorporation of conjugated molecules as organic spacer cations to create 2D perovskites on top of 3D perovskites is an effective way to approach high-performance PSCs.

We report herein the first Cu catalyzed reduction of azides with B2pin2 (pin = pinacolato) as the reductant under very mild conditions. A series of primary amines and amides were obtained in moderate to excellent yields with high chemoselectivity and good functional group tolerance. This reaction can be performed with a cheap copper salt, a simple NHC ligand and a diboron reagent.

A one-pot three-component synthesis of benzothiazoles has been developed using the copper-catalyzed aerobic cross coupling of amines followed by arene thiolation using elemental sulfur. The dual roles of elemental sulfur and CuCl(OH)-TMEDA in the aerobic amine oxidation and the aniline thiolation enable the facile access to benzothiazole derivatives from readily available starting materials. The operational simplicity of the current promiscuous catalyst system suggests the high synthetic potential in the preparation of heterocyclic compounds. (Figure presented.).

Platinum-(phosphinito-phosphinous acid) complex catalyzes the oxidative fragmentation of hindered piperidinols according to a hydrogen transfer induced methodology. This catalyst acts successively as both a hydrogen carrier and soft Lewis acid in a one pot-two steps process. This method can be applied to the synthesis of a wide variety of primary amines in a pure form by a simple acid-base extraction without further purification.

Using structure-guided design, several cell based assays, and microdosed positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, we identified a series of highly potent, selective, and brain-penetrant oxazole-4-carboxamide-based inhibitors of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3). An isotopologue of our first-generation lead, [3H]PF-367, demonstrates selective and specific target engagement in vitro, irrespective of the activation state. We discovered substantial ubiquitous GSK-3-specific radioligand binding in Tg2576 Alzheimer's disease (AD), suggesting application for these compounds in AD diagnosis and identified [11C]OCM-44 as our lead GSK-3 radiotracer, with optimized brain uptake by PET imaging in nonhuman primates. GSK-3β-isozyme selectivity was assessed to reveal OCM-51, the most potent (IC50 = 0.030 nM) and selective (>10-fold GSK-3β/GSK-3α) GSK-3β inhibitor known to date. Inhibition of CRMP2T514 and tau phosphorylation, as well as favorable therapeutic window against WNT/β-catenin signaling activation, was observed in cells.
