Silica supported N-doped carbon layers encapsulating Co–Cu nanoparticles (Co1Cux@CN/SiO2) were prepared by a one-step impregnation of Co(NO3)2·6H2O, Cu(NO3)2·3H2O, urea and glucose, following in situ carbothermal reduction. Effects of Cu contents on the catalytic performance of the Co1Cux@CN/SiO2 catalysts were investigated for selective hydrogenation of p-chloronitrobenzene to p-chloroaniline. The Co1Cu0.30@CN/SiO2 with Cu/Co molar ratio of 0.30:1 presented much higher activity and stability than the monometallic Co@CN/SiO2 catalyst. The addition of Cu into Co1Cux@CN/SiO2 catalysts had favorable effects on the formation of highly active Co–N sites and N-doped carbon layer. The role of the N-doped carbon layer was to protect the Co from oxidation by air, and the Co1Cu0.30@CN/SiO2 could be reused for at least 12 cycles without decrease in catalytic efficiency. Mechanistic and in situ infrared studies revealed that the interaction effect between the Co and Cu atoms made the surface of Co highly electron rich, which decreased adsorption of halogen groups and resulting in the enhanced selectivity during chemoselective hydrogenation of halogenated nitroarenes for a wide scope of substrates.

Most bromodomain inhibitors mimic the interactions of the natural acetylated lysine (KAc) histone substrate through key interactions with conserved asparagine and tyrosine residues within the binding pocket. Herein we report the optimization of a series of phenyl sulfonamides that exhibit a novel mode of binding to non-bromodomain and extra terminal domain (non-BET) bromodomains through displacement of a normally conserved network of four water molecules. Starting from an initial hit molecule, we report its divergent optimization toward the ATPase family AAA domain containing 2 (ATAD2) and cat eye syndrome chromosome region, candidate 2 (CECR2) domains. This work concludes with the identification of (R)-55 (GSK232), a highly selective, cellularly penetrant CECR2 inhibitor with excellent physicochemical properties.

Exploring of hydrogen source from renewable biomass, such as glucose in alkaline solution, for hydrogenation reactions had been studied since 1860s. According to proposed pathway, only small part of hydrogen source in glucose was utilized. Herein, the utilization of a hydrogen source from renewable lignocellulosic biomass, one of the most abundant renewable sources in nature, for a hydrogenation reaction is described. The hydrogenation is demonstrated by reduction of nitroarenes to arylamines in up to 95 % yields. Mechanism studies suggest that the hydrogenation occurs via a hydrogen transformation pathway.
