New water-soluble ruthenium(ii)- and ruthenium(iv)-dmso complexes [RuCl2(dmso)2(NH3)(CH3CN)] (1), [RuCl2(dmso)3(CH3CN)] (2), and [RuCl2(dmso)3(NH3)]·PF6·Cl (3) have been synthesized and characterized using elemental analyses, IR, 1H and 31P NMR, and electronic absorption spectroscopy. The molecular structures of complexes 1-3 were determined crystallographically. The reactivity of complexes 1-3 has been tested for aqueous-phase nitrile hydration at 60 °C in air, and good efficiency and selectivity are shown for the corresponding amide derivatives. Best performance is achieved with complex 3. Amide conversions of 56-99% were obtained with a variety of aromatic, alkyl, and vinyl nitriles. The reaction tolerated hydroxyl, nitro, bromo, formyl, pyridyl, benzyl, alkyl, and olefinic functional groups. Amides were isolated by simple decantation from the aqueous-phase catalyst. A catalyst loading down to 0.0001 mol% was examined and turnover numbers as high as 990?000 were observed. The catalyst was stable for weeks in solution and could be reused more than seven times without significant loss in catalytic activity. The gram-scale reaction was also performed to produce the desired product in high yields. This journal is

A novel late-stage solubilization of peptides using hydrazides is described. A solubilizing tag was attached through a selective N-alkylation at a hydrazide moiety with the aid of a 2-picoline-borane complex in 50% acetic acid-hexafluoro-2-propanol. The tag, which tolerates ligation and desulfurization conditions, can be detached by a Cu-mediated selective oxidative hydrolysis of the N-alkyl hydrazide. This new method was validated through the synthesis of HIV-1 protease.

Three new arene-ruthenium(II) complexes were prepared by treating [{RuCl(μ-Cl)(η6-arene)}2] (η6-arene = p-cymene) dimer with tri(2-furyl)phosphine (PFu3) and 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA), respectively to obtain [RuCl2(η6-arene)PFu3] [Ru]-1, [RuCl(η6-arene)(PFu3)(PTA)]BF4 [Ru]-2 and [RuCl(η6-arene)(PFu3)2]BF4 [Ru]-3. All the complexes were structurally identified using analytical and spectroscopic methods including single-crystal X-ray studies. The effectiveness of resulting complexes as potential homogeneous catalysts for selective hydration of different nitriles into corresponding amides in aqueous medium and air atmosphere was explored. There was a remarkable difference in catalytic activity of the catalysts depending on the nature and number of phosphorus-donor ligands and sites available for catalysis. Experimental studies performed using structural analogues of efficient catalyst concluded a structural-activity relationship for the higher catalytic activity of [Ru]-1, being able to convert huge variety of aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic nitriles. The use of eco-friendly water as a solvent, open atmosphere and avoidance of any organic solvent during the catalytic reactions prove the reported process to be truly green and sustainable.

Several types of air-stable N,O-coordinate half-sandwich iridium complexes containing Schiff base ligands with the general formula [Cp*IrClL] were synthesized in good yields. These stable iridium complexes displayed a good catalytic efficiency in amide synthesis. A variety of amides with different substituents were obtained in a one-pot procedure with excellent yields and high selectivities through the amidation of aldehydes with NH2OHHCl and nitrile hydration under the catalysis of complexes 1-4. The excellent and diverse catalytic activity, mild conditions, broad substance scope, and environmentally friendly solvent make this system potentially applicable in industrial production. Half-sandwich iridium complexes 1-4 were characterized by NMR, elemental analysis, and IR techniques. Molecular structures of complexes 2 and 3 were confirmed by single-crystal X-ray analysis.

Nitrile hydration provides access to amides that are important structural elements in organic chemistry. Here we report catalytic nitrile hydration using ruthenium catalysts based on a pincer scaffold with a dearomatized pyridine backbone. These complexes catalyze the nucleophilic addition of H2O to a wide variety of aliphatic and (hetero)aromatic nitriles in tBuOH as solvent. Reactions occur under mild conditions (room temperature) in the absence of additives. A mechanism for nitrile hydration is proposed that is initiated by metal-ligand cooperative binding of the nitrile.

The hydration of nitriles to amides in a water extract of pomelo peel ash (WEPPA) was realized with moderate to excellent yields without using external transition metals, bases or organic solvents. This reaction features a broad substrate scope, wide functional group tolerance, prominent chemoselectivity, and good reusability. Notably, a magnification experiment in this bio-based solvent at 100 mmol further demonstrated its practicability.

A phosphine free water-soluble superbulky amine-ruthenium-arene complex (2) encompassing 2,6-bis(diphenylmethyl)-4-methylaniline was synthesised in good yield. 2 was characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, and 13C NMR spectroscopies, TGA and elemental analyses. The structure of 2 was confirmed by a single-crystal X-ray diffraction study. The ruthenium centre in 2 adopts the pseudo-octahedral geometry due to the η6-p-cymene ring and bulky aniline ligand along with two chloro groups. Besides, complex 2 was efficaciously employed as a catalyst in the hydration of organonitriles to amides. This reaction proceeds efficiently for a wide range of substrates in an environmentally benign medium and is an economically reasonable synthetic route to amides in good yields. In addition, 2 acts as an excellent catalyst in the oxidative homocoupling of arylboronic acids in water. A range of arylboronic acids undergo a homocoupling reaction in the presence of catalyst 2 to yield symmetrical biaryls in reasonable to good yields.

Magnetic nanoparticles supported N-heterocyclic carbene–Cu complex was prepared and authenticated by FT-IR, SEM, EDX, VSM, powder-XRD. The catalytic activity of these magnetically retrievable NPs was investigated for hydration of nitriles as the simplest route for the synthesis of amides in an atom-economical manner. A wide range of nitriles containing various functional groups such as olefin, aldehyde, nitro, carboxylic acid was examined in this transformation to generate their corresponding amides in the aqueous medium. The immobilized catalyst was easily recovered using an external magnet and reused for six times without significant loss of its catalytic activity.

Polystyrene-supported gold (Au@PS) nanoparticles were synthesized by the reduction deposition approach and well characterized by UV-visible, XRD, TEM, SAED, EDX, and XPS studies. The Au@PS was applied as catalyst for the hydration of nitriles to amides in water under microwave irradiation. Several functionalized aromatic, heterocyclic and aliphatic nitriles were found to be active for synthesis of the corresponding amides where no activation of water by base, ligand and support is needed. Easy recovery, negligible leaching and recyclability for up to eight runs are added advantages of the catalyst under water-mediated reaction conditions. (Figure presented.).

The catalytic hydration of nitriles into amides, in water under neutral conditions, has been studied using a series of arene-ruthenium(ii) complexes containing commercially available chlorophosphines as auxiliary ligands, i.e. compounds [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene)(PR2Cl)] (R = aryl, heteroaryl or alkyl group). In the reaction medium, the coordinated chlorophosphines readily undergo hydrolysis to generate the corresponding phosphinous acids PR2OH, which are well-known "cooperative" ligands for this catalytic transformation. Among the complexes employed, best results were obtained with [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene){P(4-C6H4F)2Cl}]. Performing the catalytic reactions at 40 °C with 2 mol% of this complex, a large variety of organonitriles could be selectively converted into the corresponding primary amides in high yields and relatively short times. The application of [RuCl2(η6-p-cymene){P(4-C6H4F)2Cl}] in the preparation of synthetically useful β-ketoamides is also presented.
