Inspired by the serendipitous isolation of N-formylpiperazines when we attempted the synthesis of a series of piperazines, we have developed a straightforward methodology for the N- and O- formylation of secondary cyclic amines, anilines and steroids, respectively. Such approach is based on the hitherto non-reported use of DMF·HCl complex, as a versatile and easily-available formylating system that can be stored without apparent loss of activity.

The valorization of carbon dioxide (CO2) to fine chemicals is one of the most promising approaches for CO2 capture and utilization. Herein we demonstrated a series of porous organometallic polymers could be employed as highly efficient and recyclable catalysts for this purpose. Synergetic effects of specific surface area, iridium content, and CO2 adsorption capability are crucial to achieve excellent selectivity and yields towards N-formylation of diverse amines with CO2 and H2 under mild reaction conditions even at 20 ppm catalyst loading. Density functional theory calculations revealed not only a redox-neutral catalytic pathway but also a new plausible mechanism with the incorporation of the key intermediate formic acid via a proton-relay process. Remarkably, a record turnover number (TON=1.58×106) was achieved in the synthesis of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and the solid catalysts can be reused up to 12 runs, highlighting their practical potential in industry.

The irradiation of red light-emitting-diode light (λ = 660 nm) to 3-acyl-2-methoxyindolizines in the presence of a catalytic amount of methylene blue triggered the photooxidation of the indolizine ring, resulting in a nearly quantitative release of alcohols or carboxylic acids within a few minutes. The method was applicable for photouncaging various functional molecules such as a carboxylic anticancer drug and a phenolic fluorescent dye from the corresponding indolizine conjugates, including an insulin-indolizine-dye conjugate.
