Catalytic hydrogenation that utilizes frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) catalysts is a subject of growing interest because such catalysts offer a unique opportunity for the development of transition-metal-free hydrogenations. The aim of our recent efforts is to further increase the functional-group tolerance and chemoselectivity of FLP catalysts by means of size-exclusion catalyst design. Given that hydrogen molecule is the smallest molecule, our modified Lewis acids feature a highly shielded boron center that still allows the cleavage of the hydrogen but avoids undesirable FLP reactivity by simple physical constraint. As a result, greater latitude in substrate scope can be achieved, as exemplified by the chemoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated imines, ketones, and quinolines. In addition to synthetic aspects, detailed NMR spectroscopic, DFT, and 2H isotopic labeling studies were performed to gain further mechanistic insight into FLP hydrogenation. Copyright

New photochromic derivatives of 2-styrylquinoline and 2-styrylquinoxaline were obtained by the condensation of the methyl derivatives of the mentioned heterocycles with substituted benzaldehydes in the presence of basic and acidic catalysts, and also unde
