Article Abstract

Reported herein, for the first time, is a copper-promoted intramolecular [4+2]-cycloaddition cascade to access ionic N-doped polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with tunable emission wavelengths. It is shown that the reaction can be made catalytic with respect to Cu(OTf)2 when an external oxidant, Selectfluor, was used.

We report the synthesis and characterization of a new Schiff base ligand (HL), derived from 2-picolylamine and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-5-methylbenzaldehyde. Its reaction with Ni(NO)·6HO and Ln(NO)·HO (Ln = Gd, Tb, Dy) in the presence of triethylamine affords a carbonato-bridged family of heterobimetallic NiLn complexes: [NiLn(L)(L')(μ-CO)(NO)]·MeOH·HO (). During the complexation reaction, ligand HL undergoes an oxidation, followed by C-C coupling to generate a secondary ligand (HL').

Singlet oxygen (O) plays a crucial role in cancer chemotherapy and ROS biology, driving the need for highly specific probes to monitor its dynamics in real time. Herein, we developed the ratiometric fluorescent probe NAP-t-PY, utilizing a 2-pyridone recognition unit. The probe's 1-methyl-3-benzyl-2-pyridone moiety reacts specifically with O [4 + 2] cycloaddition, forming the endoperoxide NAP-t-PY-EP.

3-Fluoropyrroles are privileged scaffolds in pharmaceutical and agrochemical applications, yet their synthesis remains challenging. Herein, we report a palladium(0)-catalyzed [4+1] cycloaddition/dehydration strategy for the efficient construction of 3-fluoropyrroles from readily available 3,3-difluoropent-4-en-2-ones and primary amines. This transformation proceeds via C-F bond activation to generate a key π-allyl-Pd(II) intermediate, followed by intramolecular addition/dehydration to furnish the heterocyclic core.

Yaretol is a polycyclic norditerpene constituting a structurally distinct class of terpene natural products isolated from which, to date, has not been accessed via total synthesis. Herein, we report our synthetic efforts toward a key intramolecular Diels-Alder furan (IMDAF) cycloaddition to construct the carbon framework. We discuss our efforts toward the cycloaddition wherein undesired aromatization and unanticipated rearrangement of the cycloadduct are observed.
