Nat Commun 2024; 15:3889. [PMID: 38719796 PMCID: PMC11079046 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-48090-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/19/2024] [Indexed: 05/12/2024] Open
Abstract
There is a growing demand for adsorption technologies for recovering and recycling precious metals (PMs) in various industries. Unfortunately, amine-functionalized polymers widely used as metal adsorbents are ineffective at recovering PMs owing to their unsatisfactory PM adsorption performance. Herein, a star-shaped, hydrazide-functionalized polymer (S-PAcH) is proposed as a readily recoverable standalone adsorbent with high PM adsorption performance. The compact chain structure of S-PAcH containing numerous hydrazide groups with strong reducibility promotes PM adsorption by enhancing PM reduction while forming large, collectable precipitates. Compared with previously reported PM adsorbents, commercial amine polymers, and reducing agents, S-PAcH exhibited significantly higher adsorption capacity, selectivity, and kinetics toward three PMs (gold, palladium, and platinum) with model, simulated, and real-world feed solutions. The superior PM recovery performance of S-PAcH was attributed to its strong reduction capability combined with its chemisorption mechanism. Moreover, PM-adsorbed S-PAcH could be refined into high-purity PMs via calcination, directly utilized (upcycled) as catalysts for dye reduction, or regenerated for reuse, demonstrating its high practical feasibility. Our proposed PM adsorbents would have a tremendous impact on various industrial sectors from the perspectives of environmental protection and sustainable development.

Abstract
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of the ongoing coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. Host cell invasion is mediated by the interaction of the viral spike protein (S) with human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) through the receptor-binding domain (RBD). In this work, bio-layer interferometry (BLI) was used to screen a series of fifty-two peroxides, including aminoperoxides and bridged 1,2,4 - trioxolanes (ozonides), with the aim of identifying small molecules that interfere with the RBD-ACE2 interaction. We found that two compounds, compound 21 and 29, exhibit the activity to inhibit RBD-ACE2. They are further demonstrated to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 cell entry, as shown in pseudovirus assay and experiment with authentic SARS-CoV-2. A comprehensive in silico analysis was carried out to study the physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties, revealing that both compounds have good physicochemical properties as well as good bioavailability. Our results highlight the potential of small molecules targeting RBD inhibitors as potential therapeutic drugs for COVID-19.

Abstract
Relief of stereoelectronic frustration drives the acid-catalyzed three-component condensation of β,δ'-triketones with hydrazides and H2O2 to the direction where both nucleophiles and all three electrophilic carbons are involved in the formation of a tricyclic sp3-rich ring system that includes four heteroatoms. The otherwise inaccessible tricyclic N-substituted aminoperoxides are prepared rapidly and selectively from relatively simple substrates in good to high yields.

Abstract
A synthesis of bridged 1,2,4-trioxolanes (bridged ozonides) from 1,5-diketones and hydrogen peroxide catalyzed by SnCl4 was developed. It was shown that the ratio of target ozonides can be affected by the application of SnCl4 as a catalyst and varying the solvent. A wide range of bridged 1,2,4-trioxolanes (ozonides) was obtained in yields from 50 to 84%. The ozonide cycle was moderately resistant to the reduction of the ester group near the peroxide cycle to alcohol with LiAlH4. The bridged ozonides were evaluated for their antischistosomal activity. These ozonides exhibited a very high activity against newly transformed schistosomula and adult Schistosoma mansoni.

Abstract
Ureas are often thought of as "double amides" due to the obvious structural similarity of these functional groups. The main structural feature of an amide is its planarity, which is responsible for the conjugation between the nitrogen atom and carbonyl moiety and the decrease of amide nucleophilicity. Consequently, since amides are poor nucleophiles, ureas are often thought of as poor nucleophiles as well. Herein, we demonstrate that ureas can be distinctly different from amides. These differences can be amplified by rotation around one of the ureas' C-N bonds, which switches off the amide resonance and recovers the nucleophilicity of one of the nitrogen atoms. This conformational change can be further facilitated by the judicious introduction of steric bulk to disfavor the planar conformation. This change in reactivity is an example of "stereoelectronic deprotection," a concept when the desired reactivity of a functional group is produced by a conformational change rather than a chemical modification. This concept may be used complementarily to the traditional protecting groups. We also demonstrate both the viability and the utility of this concept by the synthesis of unusual 2-oxoimidazolium salts possessing quaternary nitrogen atoms at the urea moiety.
