Mild Cu(OTf)₂-Mediated C-Glycosylation with Chelation-Assisted Picolinate as a Leaving Group.

ABSTRACT: C-Glycosylation reactions of glycosyl picolinates with allyltrimethylsilane or silyl enol ethers were developed. Picolinate as a chelation-assisted leaving group could be activated by Cu(OTf)₂ and avoided the use of harsh Lewis acids. The glycosylations were operated under mild neutral conditions and gave the corresponding C-glycosides in up to 95% yield with moderate to excellent stereoselectivities.

Pd-Catalyzed Aerobic Oxidative Biaryl Coupling: Non-Redox Cocatalysis by Cu(OTf)2 and Discovery of Fe(OTf)3 as a Highly Effective Cocatalyst.

Project description:Copper salts find widespread use in Pd-catalyzed oxidation reactions, and they are typically used as oxidants or redox-active cocatalysts. Here, we probe the origin of a dramatic acceleration effect of Cu(OTf)2 in the C-H/C-H aerobic oxidative coupling of o-xylene. NMR spectroscopic analysis of the PdII catalyst in the presence of Cu(OTf)2, together with other experimental and DFT computational studies of the catalytic reaction, show that Cu(OTf)2 activates the PdII catalyst for C-H activation via a non-redox pathway and has negligible impact on catalyst reoxidation. These observations led to the testing of other metal triflate salts as cocatalysts, the results of which show that Fe(OTf)3 is even more effective than Cu(OTf)2.

Cu(OTf)2-catalyzed Beckmann Rearrangement of Ketones Using Hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic Acid (HOSA).

Project description:The Beckmann Rearrangement (BKR) of ketones to secondary amides often requires harsh reaction conditions that limit its practicality and scope. Herein, we describe the Cu(OTf)2-catalyzed BKR of ketones under mild reaction conditions using hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid (HOSA), a commercial water soluble aminating agent. This method is compatible with most functional groups and directly provides the desired amides in good to excellent yields.

A facile template-assisted electrodeposition approach to porous Cu/Cu2O nanowires.

Project description:Although nanoporous materials have been fabricated by electrodeposition using micelles of P-123 as structure-directing entities, the possible geometry obtained has been limited to nanoporous films. Herein, a novel dual-template assisted electrodeposition method to fabricate Cu/Cu2O porous nanowires (PNs) using polymeric micelles as a soft template and polycarbonate membranes as a hard template is reported. These nanowires consist of a porous skeleton with nanosized pores of 20 nm on average and crystallized ligaments. Morphology, composition, and crystal structure are systematically investigated and the formation mechanism is discussed. The as-deposited Cu/Cu2O PNs are found to exhibit high electrocatalytic activity toward electroreduction of nitrate. At an applied cathodic potential of 0.53 V vs. the reference reversible hydrogen electrode, the selectivity for NH3 conversion is 37.3%. Our approach is anticipated to work for the synthesis of PNs of other materials that could be obtained via electrochemical means.

Cu(OTf)2 -Mediated Cross-Coupling of Nitriles and N-Heterocycles with Arylboronic Acids to Generate Nitrilium and Pyridinium Products*.

Project description:Metal-catalyzed C-N cross-coupling generally forms C-N bonds by reductive elimination from metal complexes bearing covalent C- and N-ligands. We have identified a Cu-mediated C-N cross-coupling that uses a dative N-ligand in the bond-forming event, which, in contrast to conventional methods, generates reactive cationic products. Mechanistic studies suggest the process operates via transmetalation of an aryl organoboron to a CuII complex bearing neutral N-ligands, such as nitriles or N-heterocycles. Subsequent generation of a putative CuIII complex enables the oxidative C-N coupling to take place, delivering nitrilium intermediates and pyridinium products. The reaction is general for a range of N(sp) and N(sp2 ) precursors and can be applied to drug synthesis and late-stage N-arylation, and the limitations in the methodology are mechanistically evidenced.

Synthesis of Glycosyl Chlorides and Bromides by Chelation Assisted Activation of Picolinic Esters under Mild Neutral Conditions.

Project description:A general method has been developed for the formation of glycosyl chlorides and bromides from picolinic esters under mild and neutral conditions. Benchtop stable picolinic esters are activated by a copper(II) halide species to afford the corresponding products in high yields with a traceless leaving group. Rare ? glycosyl chlorides are accessible via this route through neighboring group participation. Additionally, glycosyl chlorides with labile protecting groups previously not easily accessible can be prepared.

Synthesis of 1,2,4-Trisubstituted-(1H)-imidazoles through Cu(OTf)2-/I2-Catalyzed C-C Bond Cleavage of Chalcones and Benzylamines.

Project description:1,2,4-Trisubstituted-(1H)-imidazoles have been synthesized by the Cu(OTf)2- and I2-catalyzed unusual C-C bond cleavage of chalcones and benzylamines. After the α,β-unsaturated C-C bond cleavage, the β-portion is eliminated from the reaction. Various aryl- and heteroaryl-substituted chalcones and benzylamines were well tolerated in this unusual transformation to yield the trisubstituted-(1H)-imidazoles.

Dye-Assisted Transformation of Cu2O Nanocrystals to Amorphous Cu x O Nanoflakes for Enhanced Photocatalytic Performance.

Project description:Amorphous Cu x O nanoflakes with a thickness of 10-50 nm were synthesized through dye-assisted transformation of rhombic dodecahedral Cu2O nanocrystals using a facile solution process. The morphology evolution observed by electron microscopy is highly dependent on the reaction between the surface and the dye. The crystal grain shrinks during the process until the formation of a purely amorphous nanoflake. The amorphous Cu x O nanoflake consists of a combination of Cu(I) and Cu(II) with a ratio close to 1:1. It shows enhanced photocatalytic reactivity toward the degradation of methyl orange compared to that of rhombic dodecahedral Cu2O nanocrystals with all active (110):Cu facets. The chemical composition and architecture remain the same after repeating degradation tests. The high surface-to-volume ratio contributes to its superior photocatalytic performance, whereas its low surface energy, confirmed by density functional theory simulations, explains its improved stability. The nanoflakes also show the ability of degrading nitrobenzene effectively, thus demonstrating great promise as a highly stable and active photocatalyst for environmental applications.

A bioinspired Au-Cu1.97S/Cu2S film with efficient low-angle-dependent and thermal-assisted photodetection properties.

Project description:Inspired by the geological processes, this study develops an innovative low-concentration-ratio H2 reduction method to reduce the stoichiometric Au-CuS nanoparticles to produce completely reduced stoichiometric Cu2S with "invisible" Au achieved for solid solution Au enhancement. A stable Au-Cu1.97S/Cu2S micro/nano-composite is then formed by spontaneous oxidation. From this composite, in combination with biomimetic technology, an omnidirectional photoabsorption and thermoregulated film (Au-Cu1.97S/Cu2S-C-T_FW) is designed and fabricated as a photothermal-assisted and temperature-autoregulated photodetector for broadband and low-angle-dependent photodetection that presents good performance with high responsivity (26.37 mA/W), detectivity (1.25×108 Jones), and good stability at low bias (0.5 V). Solid solution Au exhibits significantly enhanced photodetection (1,000 times). This study offers a new concept for improving the stability and photoelectric properties of copper chalcogenides. Moreover, it opens up a new avenue toward enhancing the performance of optoelectronic and photovoltaic devices using solid solution metal atoms and thermal-assisted, anti-overheating temperature autoregulation.

Enzyme-specific activation versus leaving group ability.

Project description:Enzyme-specific activation and the substrate mimetics strategy are effective ways to circumvent the limited substrate recognition often encountered in protease-catalyzed peptide synthesis. A key structural element in both approaches is the guanidinophenyl (OGp) ester, which enables important interactions for affinity and recognition by the enzyme--at least, this is usually the explanation given for its successful application. In this study we show that leaving group ability is of equal or even greater importance. To this end we used both experimental and computational methods: 1) synthesis of close analogues of OGp, and their evaluation in a dipeptide synthesis assay with trypsin, 2) molecular docking studies to provide insights into the binding mode, and 3) ab initio calculations to evaluate their electronic properties.

Deterministic synthesis of Cu9S5 flakes assisted by single-layer graphene arrays.

Project description:The employment of two-dimensional materials, as growth substrates or buffer layers, enables the epitaxial growth of layered materials with different crystalline symmetries with a preferential crystalline orientation and the synthesis of heterostructures with a large lattice constant mismatch. In this work, we employ single crystalline graphene to modify the sulfurization dynamics of copper foil for the deterministic synthesis of large-area Cu9S5 crystals. Molecular dynamics simulations using the Reax force-field are used to mimic the sulfurization process of a series of different atomistic systems specifically built to understand the role of graphene during the sulphur atom attack over the Cu(111) surface. Cu9S5 flakes show a flat morphology with an average lateral size of hundreds of micrometers. Cu9S5 presents a direct band-gap of 2.5 eV evaluated with light absorption and light emission spectroscopies. Electrical characterization shows that the Cu9S5 crystals present high p-type doping with a hole mobility of 2 cm2 V-1 s-1.
