Selektive katalytische Hydrodefluorierung als Schlüsselschritt zur Synthese bisher unzugänglicher Aminopyridinderivate

A novel lysosome-targeted fluorogenic probe based on 5-triazole-quinoline for the rapid detection of hydrogen sulfide in living cells

A fluorogenic probe based on the novel fluorophore 5-triazole-quinoline was developed for the detection of hydrogen sulfide, an endogenous signaling molecule associated with the development of various diseases. The lysosome-targeted probe Lyso-HS was synthesized via C-H direct azidation from 8-aminoquinoline; it was able to detect H₂S in 1 min and exhibited excellent turn-on ability with 95-fold fluorescence enhancement based on a new fluorochrome. The high quenching efficiency was further verified using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT). The probe also exhibited high selectivity and a low detection limit (as low as 214.5 nM), which has practical applications for disease detection and monitoring.

Palladium-Catalyzed Reductive Coupling Reaction of Terminal Alkynes with Aryl Iodides Utilizing Hafnocene Difluoride as a Hafnium Hydride Precursor Leading to trans-Alkenes

Herein, we describe a reductive cross-coupling of alkynes and aryl iodides by using a novel catalytic system composed of a catalytic amount of palladium dichloride and a promoter precursor, hafnocene difluoride (Cp₂ HfF₂ , Cp=cyclopentadienyl anion), in the presence of a mild reducing reagent, a hydrosilane, leading to a one-pot preparation of trans-alkenes. In this process, a series of coupling reactions efficiently proceeds through the following three steps: (i) an initial formation of hafnocene hydride from hafnocene difluoride and the hydrosilane, (ii) a subsequent hydrohafnation toward alkynes, and (iii) a final transmetalation of the alkenyl hafnium species to a palladium complex. This reductive coupling could be chemoselectively applied to the preparation of trans-alkenes with various functional groups, such as an alkyl group, a halogen, an ester, a nitro group, a heterocycle, a boronic ester, and an internal alkyne.
