Interest in the therapeutic effects of carbon monoxide (CO), a product of heme degradation catalyzed by the enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), has led to the development of CO-releasing molecules (CO-RMs) for the controlled delivery of this gas in vivo. We recently proposed conjugating a cobalt-based CO-RM with various activators of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), the transcription factor that regulates HO-1 expression, in order to exploit the beneficial effects of exogenous and endogenous CO. In this study, we describe the preparation of hybrid molecules (termed HYCOs) conjugating a fumaric acid derivative as an Nrf2 activator to a Mn- or a Ru-based CO-RM known to be pharmacologically active. With the exception of an acyl-manganese complex, these hybrids were obtained by associating the two bioactive entities by means of a linker of variable structure. X-ray diffraction analyses and preliminary biological investigations are also presented.

Nature utilizes multicomponent catalyst systems to convert simple, abundant starting materials into complex molecules that are essential for life. In contrast, synthetic chemical transformations rarely adopt this strategy because it is difficult to replicate the sophisticated supramolecular assemblies used by biology for active-site separation and substrate trafficking. Here, we describe a method for multicomponent catalyst separation that involves encapsulating transition-metal complexes in nanoporous materials called metal-organic frameworks. The multicomponent catalyst system was highly active for converting hydrogen and carbon dioxide to methanol, and it could be formulated to be readily recyclable. Moreover, we uncovered an autocatalytic feature that was possible only when we utilized the multicomponent catalyst strategy. These results open avenues for obtaining fuel from abundant and renewable resources. Methanol is a promising renewable fuel that can be adapted to the current liquid fuel infrastructure. It can be produced from hydrogen and carbon dioxide, mitigating greenhouse gas emissions and storing hydrogen in the process. However, the industrial production of methanol through this hydrogenation reaction currently requires elevated temperatures and pressures and can produce significant amounts of unwanted byproducts. Here, we employ a bioinspired tandem catalytic system to efficiently hydrogenate carbon dioxide to methanol selectively at low temperatures. We achieved superior performance by eliminating catalyst incompatibility through encapsulating at least one of the catalysts involved in the tandem process in nanoporous materials called metal-organic frameworks. In the long term, this method could be applied to other tandem catalytic processes, allowing more efficient access to alternative fuels, commodity chemicals, and valuable pharmaceutical products. Tsung and co-workers describe a three-component tandem catalytic process for the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol. The bioinspired process is enabled by encapsulation of at least one of the two ruthenium-based catalysts required in the metal-organic framework (MOF) UiO-66. The reaction was found to have an autocatalytic feature that enables the reaction to be carried out without superstoichiometric additives. Encapsulating both ruthenium-based catalysts in the MOF allowed the catalyst to be recycled.

We developed a novel, straightforward route toward Pd(II)-aminocarbene complexes bearing a P-chelating phosphinoferrocenyl substituent based on a three-component reaction of 1′-(diphenylphosphino)-1-isocyanoferrocene (1) with [PdCl2(cod)] (cod = cycloocta-1,5-diene) and nucleophilic amines. Depending on the type of the amine, the reaction produced acyclic diaminocarbenes and their saturated (imidazolin-2-ylidene) and unsaturated (imidazol-2-ylidene) cyclic counterparts (NHCs). Using (S)-2-(chloromethyl)pyrrolidine as the nucleophile, this method afforded a separable pair of stable diastereomeric bicyclic imidazolin-2-ylidene carbenes with different configurations of the planar-chiral ferrocene unit. The prepared P-chelating carbenes were characterized using spectroscopic methods, X-ray crystallography, and DFT methods. The last were used to explain the formation of isomeric open diaminocarbenes featuring NHR groups at the wing-tip position, trends in Pd-Cl bond lengths reflecting similar trans influences of the particular carbene and phosphine donors, and the results from cyclic voltammetric measurements. Furthermore, the carbenes were used as defined (pre)catalysts in Miyaura borylation of aryl bromides with bis(pinacolato)diboron. When applying the optimized catalytic system (1 mol % Pd catalyst, KOAc as the base, 2-propanol, 85 °C), this reaction produced a range of simple and substituted arylboronate pinacol esters in high yield and without biaryl side products.
A strategy combining quantitative reactions and reversible-covalent chemistry for sequential synthesis of sequence-controlled polymers with different sequences

A new strategy combing quantitative reactions and reversible-covalent chemistry is proposed for sequential synthesis of a series of sequence-controlled polymers with different sequences. Using a Michael addition reaction between acrylate and thiol, an aminolysis reaction of five-membered cyclic dithiocarbonate and a thiol substitution reaction of bromomaleimide and thiol, AB-, AB'C- and AB'CD-sequenced molecules are synthesized via AB, AB'C and AB'CD sequential monomer additions, respectively. These three molecules all have furan-protected maleimido group at one end, and the other end of AB-, AB'C- and AB'CD-sequenced molecules is amine, thiol and anthracene groups, respectively. Due to the fact that the furan-protected maleimido group can be efficiently transformed to maleimide group at high temperature via retro Diels-Alder reaction, AB-, AB'C- and AB'CD-sequenced molecules polymerize into sequence-controlled polymers with corresponding sequences at 120 °C. Through this strategy, the synthesis of molecular modules does not require separation and purification, and sequence-controlled polymers with specific sequence can be synthesized in a one-pot process via adding different monomers and adjusting reaction condition.

The systemic investigation of the structural impacts of side chains on the pH- and thermo-responsiveness of tertiary amine functionalized poly(l-glutamate)s (TA-PGs) was carried out. The TA-PGs polymers were effectively synthesized by Cu(I)-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition click reaction of azido tertiary amines with poly(γ-propargyl-l-glutamate) (PPLG). Turbimetric measurements were performed to characterize the pH- and temperature-induced phase transition of TA-PGs in aqueous solution, which suggested a structural dependence of the properties on the N-substituted groups and the "linkers" between 1,2,3-triazole ring and the tertiary amine groups in the side chains. In detail, the pH responsive properties of TA-PGs were basically determined by the hydrophobicity of the N-substituted groups in the side chains and the pH transition point (pHt) decreased as the increasing hydrophobicity of the N-substituted groups, while the temperature-responsiveness of TA-PGs were affected by either the N-substituted groups or the "linkers." TA-PGs with a moderate N-substituted amine group (e.g., DEA, PR, and PD) or a branched "linker" (e.g., iso-propylene and 2-methylpropylene group) were more likely to express the LCST-type phase transition tuned by pH variation. These structure-property relationships revealed in this study would help to develop the applications of TA-PGs in smart drug delivery systems. Copyright

Chromium complexes of three new ligands, Ph2PN(Me)(CH 2)2-X [X = NMe2(PNN); PPh2 (PNP); Py (PNPy)], have been examined vis-a-vis their ability to promote ethylene tetramerization, (PNN)CrCl3(L) [L = THF (1); CH3CN (2)], (PNPy)CrCl3(L) [L = THF (3); CH3CN (4)], and (PNP)CrCl3(THF) (5). In the case of 2 and 4, it was possible to grow crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction. The reaction of 3 with Et3Al afforded the dinuclear [(HN(Me)(CH2)2Py)CrCl 2Et]2 (6) containing a trivalent chromium connected to an Et group. During the alkylation though, the ligand has been fragmented with removal of the side arm and protonation of the N atom of the remaining NP residue. All the complexes have been tested for ethylene oligomerization activity. Complex 1 displayed the highest selectivity for 1-octene, upon activation with DMAO in MeCy. Contrary to expectations, complex 6 is not a self-activating catalyst.

Facile conversion of cysteine and alkyl cysteines to dehydroalanine on protein surfaces: Versatile and switchable access to functionalized proteins

, p. 5052 - 5053 (2008/10/09)
An efficient and robust oxidative elimination of cysteine to dehydroalanine has been discovered. The reaction is induced by O-mesitylenesulfonylhydroxylamine (MSH) and is compatible with methionine. The key elimination has been executed on protein surfaces and allows ready access to different post-translationally modified proteins through conjugate addition of sulfur nucleophiles to dehydroalanine. Treatment of the resulting thioether with MSH results in regeneration of dehydroalanine, allowing a "functional switch" by subsequent addition of a different thiol. Copyright
