Mesoporous Metal–Metalloid Amorphous Alloys: The First Synthesis of Open 3D Mesoporous Ni-B Amorphous Alloy Spheres via a Dual Chemical Reduction Method

Kang, Yunqing,Henzie, Joel,Gu, Huajun,Na, Jongbeom,Fatehmulla, Amanullah,Shamsan, Belqes Saeed A.,Aldhafiri, Abdullah M.,Farooq, W. Aslam,Bando, Yoshio,Asahi, Toru,Jiang, Bo,Li, Hexing,Yamauchi, Yusuke

Selective hydrogenation of nitriles is an industrially relevant synthetic route for the preparation of primary amines. Amorphous metal–boron alloys have a tunable, glass-like structure that generates a high concentration of unsaturated metal surface atoms that serve as active sites in hydrogenation reactions. Here, a method to create nanoparticles composed of mesoporous 3D networks of amorphous nickel–boron (Ni-B) alloy is reported. The hydrogenation of benzyl cyanide to β-phenylethylamine is used as a model reaction to assess catalytic performance. The mesoporous Ni-B alloy spheres have a turnover frequency value of 11.6 h?1, which outperforms non-porous Ni-B spheres with the same composition. The bottom-up synthesis of mesoporous transition metal–metalloid alloys expands the possible reactions that these metal architectures can perform while simultaneously incorporating more Earth-abundant catalysts.

Self-Immolative Hydroxybenzylamine Linkers for Traceless Protein Modification

Traceless self-immolative linkers are widely used for the reversible modification of proteins and peptides. This article describes a new class of traceless linkers based on ortho- or para-hydroxybenzylamines. The introduction of electron-donating substituents on the aromatic core stabilizes the quinone methide intermediate, thus providing a platform for payload release that can be modulated. To determine the extent to which the electronics affect the rate of release, we prepared a small library of hydroxybenzylamine linkers with varied electronics in the aromatic core, resulting in half-lives ranging from 20 to 144 h. Optimization of the linker design was carried out with mechanistic insights from density functional theory (DFT) and the in silico design of an intramolecular trapping agent through the use of DFT and intramolecular distortion energy calculations. This resulted in the development of a faster self-immolative linker with a half-life of 4.6 h. To demonstrate their effectiveness as traceless linkers for bioconjugation, reversible protein-polyethylene glycol conjugates with a model protein lysozyme were prepared, which had reduced protein activity but recovered ≥94% activity upon traceless release of the polymer. This new class of linkers with tunable release rates expands the traceless linkers toolbox for a variety of bioconjugation applications.

Metal-Free Deoxygenation of Chiral Nitroalkanes: An Easy Entry to α-Substituted Enantiomerically Enriched Nitriles

Pirola, Margherita,Faverio, Chiara,Orlandi, Manuel,Benaglia, Maurizio

supporting information, p. 10247 - 10250 (2021/06/18)

A metal-free, mild and chemodivergent transformation involving nitroalkanes has been developed. Under optimized reaction conditions, in the presence of trichlorosilane and a tertiary amine, aliphatic nitroalkanes were selectively converted into amines or nitriles. Furthermore, when chiral β-substituted nitro compounds were reacted, the stereochemical integrity of the stereocenter was maintained and α-functionalized nitriles were obtained with no loss of enantiomeric excess. The methodology was successfully applied to the synthesis of chiral β-cyano esters, α-aryl alkylnitriles, and TBS-protected cyanohydrins, including direct precursors of four active pharmaceutical ingredients (ibuprofen, tembamide, aegeline and denopamine).

Designing a metal catalyst that addresses the major issues of solubility, stability, toxicity, cell uptake, and reactivity within complex biological milieu for bioorthogonal controlled transformation reactions is a highly formidable challenge. Herein, we report an organoiridium complex that is nontoxic and capable of the uncaging of allyloxycarbonyl-protected amines under biologically relevant conditions and within living cells. The potential applications of this uncaging chemistry have been demonstrated by the generation of diagnostic and therapeutic agents upon the activation of profluorophore and prodrug in a controlled fashion within HeLa cells, providing a valuable tool for numerous potential biological and therapeutic applications.

Aluminum Metal-Organic Framework-Ligated Single-Site Nickel(II)-Hydride for Heterogeneous Chemoselective Catalysis

Antil, Neha,Kumar, Ajay,Akhtar, Naved,Newar, Rajashree,Begum, Wahida,Dwivedi, Ashutosh,Manna, Kuntal

The development of chemoselective and heterogeneous earth-abundant metal catalysts is essential for environmentally friendly chemical synthesis. We report a highly efficient, chemoselective, and reusable single-site nickel(II) hydride catalyst based on robust and porous aluminum metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) (DUT-5) for hydrogenation of nitro and nitrile compounds to the corresponding amines and hydrogenolysis of aryl ethers under mild conditions. The nickel-hydride catalyst was prepared by the metalation of aluminum hydroxide secondary building units (SBUs) of DUT-5 having the formula of Al(μ2-OH)(bpdc) (bpdc = 4,4′-biphenyldicarboxylate) with NiBr2 followed by a reaction with NaEt3BH. DUT-5-NiH has a broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance in the hydrogenation of aromatic and aliphatic nitro and nitrile compounds under 1 bar H2 and could be recycled and reused at least 10 times. By changing the reaction conditions of the hydrogenation of nitriles, symmetric or unsymmetric secondary amines were also afforded selectively. The experimental and computational studies suggested reversible nitrile coordination to nickel followed by 1,2-insertion of coordinated nitrile into the nickel-hydride bond occurring in the turnover-limiting step. In addition, DUT-5-NiH is also an active catalyst for chemoselective hydrogenolysis of carbon-oxygen bonds in aryl ethers to afford hydrocarbons under atmospheric hydrogen in the absence of any base, which is important for the generation of fuels from biomass. This work highlights the potential of MOF-based single-site earth-abundant metal catalysts for practical and eco-friendly production of chemical feedstocks and biofuels.

Direct Conversion of Hydrazones to Amines using Transaminases

Carter, Eve M.,Hailes, Helen C.,Sheppard, Tom D.,Subrizi, Fabiana,Ward, John M.

, p. 4520 - 4523 (2021/09/20)

Transaminase enzymes (TAms) have been widely used for the amination of aldehydes and ketones, often resulting in optically pure products. In this work, transaminases were directly reacted with hydrazones in a novel approach to form amine products. Several substrates were investigated, including those with furan and phenyl moieties. It was determined that the amine yields increased when an additional electrophile was added to the reaction mixture, suggesting that they can sequester the hydrazine released in the reaction. Pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (PLP), a cofactor for transaminases, and polyethylene glycol (PEG)-aldehydes were both found to increase the yield of amine formed. Notably, the amination of (S)-(?)-1-amino-2-(methoxymethyl)pyrrolidine (SAMP) hydrazones gave promising results as a method to form chiral β-substituted amines in good yield.

, p. 6359 - 6367 (2020/11/03)

Two different types of palladium catalysts supported on dual-pore monolithic silica beads [5% Pd/SM and 0.25% Pd/SM(sc)] for chemoselective hydrogenation were developed. Alkyne, alkene, azide, and nitro functionalities and the aromatic N-Cbz protecting group were chemoselectively hydrogenated using 5% Pd/SM. On the other hand, 0.25% Pd/SM(sc) showed unique and higher hydrogenation catalyst activity toward a wide variety of reducible functionalities. Furthermore, the catalyst activities of both 5% Pd/SM and 0.25% Pd/SM(sc) under flow hydrogenation conditions were also evaluated. A pre-packed 5% Pd/SM cartridge could be used continuously for at least 72 h without any loss of catalyst activity. The 0.2% Pd/SM(sc) catalyst prepacked in a cartridge showed high catalyst activity for the flow hydrogenation of trisubstituted alkenes under mild reaction conditions. This journal is

Continuous-flow synthesis of baclofen precursor (2) was achieved using achiral and chiral heterogeneous catalysts in high yield with high enantioselectivity. The key steps are chiral calcium-catalyzed asymmetric 1,4-addition of a malonate to a nitroalkene and chemoselective reduction of a nitro compound to the corresponding amino compound by using molecular hydrogen. A dimethylpolysilane (DMPS)-modified platinum catalyst supported on activated carbon (AC) and calcium phosphate (CP) has been developed that has remarkable activity for the selective hydrogenation of nitro compounds.
