Natural light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) absorb a broad spectrum of sunlight using a collection of photosynthetic pigments whose spatial arrangement is controlled by a protein matrix and exhibit efficient energy transfer. We constructed a novel light-harvesting protein mimic, which absorbs light in the UV to visible region (280-700 nm) by displaying flavone and porphyrin on a peptoid helix. First, an efficient synthesis of 4′-derivatized 7-methoxyflavone (7-MF, 3 and 4) was developed. The flavone-porphyrin-peptoid conjugate (FPPC) was then prepared via Miyaura borylation on a resin-bound peptoid followed by Suzuki coupling between the peptoid and pigment. Circular dichroism spectroscopy indicated that the FPPC underwent helix-to-loop conversion of the peptoid scaffold upon changing the solvent conditions. A distinct intramolecular energy transfer was observed from 7-MF to porphyrin with greater efficiency in the helix than that in the loop conformation of the peptoid, whereas no clear evidence of energy transfer was obtained for unstructured FPPC. We thus demonstrate the value of the helical peptoid, which provided a controlled orientation for 7-MF and porphyrin and modulated the energy transfer efficiency via conformational switching. Our work provides a way to construct a sophisticated LHC mimic with enhanced coverage of the solar spectrum and controllable energy transfer efficiency.

Paragraph 0216-0219; 0223; 0239; 0255, (2021/02/26)
Lewis acidic metal-organic framework (MOF) materials comprising triflate-coordinated metal nodes are described. The materials can be used as heterogenous catalysts in a wide range of organic group transformations, including Diels-Alder reactions, epoxide-ring opening reactions, Friedel-Crafts acylation reactions and alkene hydroalkoxylation reactions. The MOFs can also be prepared with metallated organic bridging ligands to provide heterogenous catalysts for tandem reactions and/or prepared as composites with support particles for use in columns of continuous flow reactor systems. Methods of preparing and using the MOF materials and their composites are also described.
Trialkylammonium salt degradation: Implications for methylation and cross-coupling

Trialkylammonium (most notably N,N,N-trimethylanilinium) salts are known to display dual reactivity through both the aryl group and the N-methyl groups. These salts have thus been widely applied in cross-coupling, aryl etherification, fluorine radiolabelling, phase-transfer catalysis, supramolecular recognition, polymer design, and (more recently) methylation. However, their application as electrophilic methylating reagents remains somewhat underexplored, and an understanding of their arylation versus methylation reactivities is lacking. This study presents a mechanistic degradation analysis of N,N,N-trimethylanilinium salts and highlights the implications for synthetic applications of this important class of salts. Kinetic degradation studies, in both solid and solution phases, have delivered insights into the physical and chemical parameters affecting anilinium salt stability. 1H NMR kinetic analysis of salt degradation has evidenced thermal degradation to methyl iodide and the parent aniline, consistent with a closed-shell SN2-centred degradative pathway, and methyl iodide being the key reactive species in applied methylation procedures. Furthermore, the effect of halide and non-nucleophilic counterions on salt degradation has been investigated, along with deuterium isotope and solvent effects. New mechanistic insights have enabled the investigation of the use of trimethylanilinium salts in O-methylation and in improved cross-coupling strategies. Finally, detailed computational studies have helped highlight limitations in the current state-of-the-art of solvation modelling of reaction in which the bulk medium undergoes experimentally observable changes over the reaction timecourse.

A convenient synthesis of benzylic phosphonates and 2,3-dihydrobenzo[d][1,2]oxaphosphole 2-oxides substituted at the aromatic ring, as well as their precursors, 2-hydroxybenzylic alcohols, from the derivatives of salicylic aldehyde, salicylic acid, and 2-hydroxyacetophenone bearing an additional hydroxy or methoxy group at the para position of the aromatic ring was developed. For the first time, the possibility of selective demethylation of the methoxy group positioned ortho to the methylene phosphonate fragment with retention of the methoxy group at the para position was shown.

, p. 9789 - 9793 (2019/10/14)
To explore if the catalytic activity of single-metal species in halometallate catalysts can be enhanced with mixed-metal species, aluminum and gallium were simultaneously introduced to prepare a mixed-metal ionic liquid (IL) through a one-pot reaction of [HN222]Cl, AlCl3, and GaCl3 in various amounts. The Lewis acidity in Friedel-Crafts acylation and alkylation reactions of these IL compositions were evaluated and all mixed-metal [HN222][xAlCl3 + (2 - x)GaCl3]Cl ILs exhibited higher catalytic activity than AlCl3, GaCl3, [HN222][Al2Cl7], or [HN222][Ga2Cl7]. The broadening in 27Al nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of these ILs indicates the presence of dynamic anionic species, whereas matrix-assisted laser-desorption ionization time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) and acetonitrile-probed Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) analyses correlates the structure-activity relationship, for instance, identifying the presence of mixed-metal-containing [Cl2GaOClAlClOGaCl2]- species in the better-performing ILs.

The synthesis of highly acidic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has attracted significant research interest in recent years. We report here the design of a strongly Lewis acidic MOF, ZrOTf-BTC, through two-step transformation of MOF-808 (Zr-BTC) secondary building units (SBUs). Zr-BTC was first treated with 1 M hydrochloric acid solution to afford ZrOH-BTC by replacing each bridging formate group with a pair of hydroxide and water groups. The resultant ZrOH-BTC was further treated with trimethylsilyl triflate (Me3SiOTf) to afford ZrOTf-BTC by taking advantage of the oxophilicity of the Me3Si group. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of Zr-bound superoxide and fluorescence spectra of Zr-bound N-methylacridone provided a quantitative measurement of Lewis acidity of ZrOTf-BTC with an energy splitting (?E) of 0.99 eV between the ?x? and ?y? orbitals, which is competitive to the homogeneous benchmark Sc(OTf)3. ZrOTf-BTC was shown to be a highly active solid Lewis acid catalyst for a broad range of important organic transformations under mild conditions, including Diels-Alder reaction, epoxide ring-opening reaction, Friedel-Crafts acylation, and alkene hydroalkoxylation reaction. The MOF catalyst outperformed Sc(OTf)3 in terms of both catalytic activity and catalyst lifetime. Moreover, we developed a ZrOTf-BTC?SiO2 composite as an efficient solid Lewis acid catalyst for continuous flow catalysis. The Zr centers in ZrOTf-BTC?SiO2 feature identical coordination environment to ZrOTf-BTC based on spectroscopic evidence. ZrOTf-BTC?SiO2 displayed exceptionally high turnover numbers (TONs) of 1700 for Diels-Alder reaction, 2700 for epoxide ring-opening reaction, and 326 for Friedel-Crafts acylation under flow conditions. We have thus created strongly Lewis acidic sites in MOFs via triflation and constructed the MOF?SiO2 composite for continuous flow catalysis of important organic transformations.
