Transition-metal-catalyzed C–N bond-forming reactions have emerged as fundamental and powerful tools to construct arylamines, a common structure found in drug agents, natural products, fine chemicals. Reported herein is an alternative access heteroarylamine via radical–radical cross-coupling pathway, powered by visible light catalysis without any aid of external oxidant reductant. Only irradiation photocatalyst, such metal-free does the cascade single-electron transfer event for amines...

As one of the most ubiquitous bulk reagents available, intrinsic chemical inertness tetrahydrofuran (THF) makes direct and site-selective C(sp3 )-H bond activation difficult, especially under redox neutral condition. Here, we demonstrate that semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) can activate α-C-H THF via forming QDs/THF conjugates. Under visible light irradiation, resultant alkoxyalkyl radical directly engages in cross-coupling with α-amino from amino C-H bonds or addition alkene...

Cross-coupling acylation by direct aldehyde activation is ideal to construct a useful carbonyl motif. However, the strong C–H bond energy, short radical lifetime, and mismatched polarity render this reaction huge challenge. Herein, semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) interface demonstrated overcome obstacles lying on way acylating alkene or alkylarene, directly activating formyl into an acyl radical. Further stabilization of obtained species QD ensured their effective cross-coupling with...

The challenges of graphene as a high-performance additive applied in lubricant are its dispersibility and transparency. Herein, oleic diethanolamide borate (ODAB)-grafted oxide nanosheets (GO) with good oil were successfully achieved. structure analysis the as-prepared ODAB-grafted GO (MGO) verified that molecular ODAB has bonded active groups surface, determined by characterizations. In addition, tribological properties MGO evaluated friction-testing machine, morphologies worn surfaces...

A unified strategy for the synthesis of 2-vinyl heterocycles is reported. With visible light irradiation, simple and cheap CuCl able to functionalize a terminal alkyne, giving Cu(I)-acetylide in situ. Unlike case noble metals or organic dye photocatalysts, this critical not only activates C-H bond alkynes but also serves as photocatalyst achieve varieties good excellent yields, even large scale late-stage functionalization natural product.

Abstract The activation of the α‐C−H bond ketones typically requires an amine and a directing group to guide reaction selectivity in amine‐catalysis carbonyl chemistry. For ketone, groups are also required control selectivity. Reported herein is first α‐alkylation cyclic absence catalyst group. 1 H NMR, XPS, EPR studies DFT calculations indicate that α‐carbon radical intermediate formed through direct selective inert chelating on surface colloidal quantum dots (QDs). Such interaction...
