Spectacular progress has recently been achieved in transition metal-catalyzed C-H borylation of phosphines as well directed electrophilic borylation. As shown here, P-directed provides a new, straightforward, and efficient access to phosphine-boranes. It operates under metal-free conditions leverages simple, readily available substrates. is applicable broad range backbones (naphthyl, biphenyl, N-phenylpyrrole, binaphthyl, benzyl, naphthylmethyl) gives facile various substitution patterns at...

Significant achievements have been reported in the last few years regarding stabilization and functionalization of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), mainly through use thiols imidazolylidene N-heterocyclic carbene-capping ligands. Herein, we report that mesoionic carbene (MIC) ligands, based on 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene scaffold, allow expeditive preparation AuNPs very high stability a simple straightforward one-pot protocol directly from triazolium salts separated Au(III) sources. Control over size...

The Balz-Schiemann reaction endures as a method for the preparation of (hetero)aryl fluorides yet is eschewed due to need harsh conditions or high temperatures along with isolate potentially explosive diazonium salts. In departure from these conditions, we show that various organotrifluoroborates (RBF3- s) may serve fluoride ion sources solution-phase fluoro-dediazoniation in organic solvents under mild conditions. This methodology was successfully extended one-pot process obviating aryl...

Acyl chlorides are highly reactive and widely used substrates in catalytic cross-coupling reactions, but so far, site selectivity over other functional groups has remained an issue. In this work, Pd complexes deriving from the phosphine–boranes [i-Pr2P(o-C6H4)]2BFXyl i-Pr2P(o-C6H4)BFXyl2 (Fxyl = 3,5-(F3C)2C6H3) were found to preferentially activate acyl C–I, C–Br, C–Cl, C–OTf, C–OTs bonds. The system is amenable catalysis (Stille Negishi couplings), providing a simple efficient means forge...

N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) have drawn considerable interest in the field of nanomaterials chemistry as highly stabilizing ligands enabling formation strong and covalent carbon-metal bonds. Applied to gold nanoparticles synthesis, most common strategy consists reduction a preformed NHC-AuI complex with large excess reducing agent that makes particle size difficult control. In this paper, we report straightforward synthesis NHC-coated (NHC-AuNPs) by treating commercially available gold(I)...

Advances in personalized medicine are prompting the development of multimodal agents, that is, molecules combine properties promoting various diagnostic and therapeutic applications. General approaches exploit chemical conjugation agents with contrast or design nanoplatforms. Herein, we report a single molecule exhibits potential for different modes as well ability to sensitize oxygen, thus offering photodynamic therapy. Exceptionally, this work involves synthesis chiral resolution an...

Significant progress has been made over the last decades in surface functionalization of coinage metals using thiols and more recently N-heterocyclic carbenes. As shown this work, mesoionic carbenes (MICs) provide straightforward access to a novel class ligands thus materials. Importantly, MICs are easily accessed from triazolium salts (TS) onto which functional groups may be attached with little synthetic effort. Here, we present library TS that were further converted into MICs, situ,...
