A copper-mediated trifluoromethyltelluration of arylboronic acids with [Me4N][TeCF3] using air as an environmental friendly oxidant is presented. The reaction proceeded smoothly under mild conditions in the presence of Cu(OTf)2 and bipyridine to provide the corresponding trifluoromethyltellurated products in good yields. Vinylboronic acid and arylb...

ZnO nanoparticles embedded in a magnetic isocyanurate-based periodic mesoporous organosilica ([email protected]–ICS–ZnO) were prepared through a modified environmentally-benign procedure for the first time and properly characterized by appropriate spectroscopic and analytical methods or techniques used for mesoporous materials. The new thermally stable Fe3...

Photoremovable protecting groups (PPGs) represent one of the main contemporary implementations of photochemistry. Here, the authors show that meso-methylporphyrin unites traditionally exclusive features of organic and metal-complex PPGs within a single entity.

The activation of aziridines is typically achieved via reaction with strong Lewis acids or transition metals. Here, the authors report that cooperative Se ∙ ∙∙O and Se ∙ ∙∙N noncovalent interactions can activate sulfonyl-protected aziridines, which enables their use in cycloaddition reactions with nonactivated alkenes.

Characterization of covalency of intermolecular interactions in the van der Waals distance limit remains challenging because the interactions between molecules are weak, dynamic, and not measurable. Herein, we approach this issue in a series of supramolecular mixed-valence (MV) donor(D)-bridge(B)-acceptor(A) systems consisting of two bridged Mo2 un...

A detailed study of lead halide-layered perovskites with general formula A2PbX4 (where A is cyclohexylammonium (CHA) or cyclopentylammonium (CPA) cation and X is Cl- or Br- anion) is presented. Using variable temperature synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction, we observe that these compounds exhibit diverse crystal structures above room temperature. ...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most commonly diagnosed cancer in Europe and the United States and the second leading cause of cancer related mortality. A therapeutic strategy used for the treatment of CRC involves targeting the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In this study, we synthesized a series of novel tetrahydroquinolino...

The α-arylation of amides via aryl migration has attracted considerable interest in recent years. Here, the authors report a method for the preparation of bulky α-quaternary amides via a polar-radical crossover enolate oxidation-aryl migration cascade.
