Abstract
Secondary nitroalkanes underwent oxygen-mediated nitro-nitrite isomerization, serving as versatile N-nitrosating agents under aerobic conditions. To capitalize on the newly discovered aerobic nitro-nitrite isomerization phenomenon, a phase-transfer catalysis system employing KSeCN and TBAI was developed, in which the tandem diazotization and azo coupling with nitroalkanes as well as N-nitrosation of amines were accomplished. The current tandem diazotization and azo coupling strategy provides a facile synthesis of areneazo-2-(2-nitro)propane derivatives, a safe synthetic alternative to aryl diazonium salts.

Abstract
A biomimetic alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH)-like oxidation protocol was developed using an ortho-naphthoquinone catalyst in the presence of a catalytic amount of base. The developed organocatalytic aerobic oxidation protocol proceeds through the intramolecular 1,5-hydrogen atom transfer of naphthalene alkoxide intermediates, a mechanistically distinctive feature from the previous alcohol dehydrogenase mimics that require metals in the active form of catalysts. The ADH-like aerobic oxidation protocol should provide green alternatives to the existing stoichiometric and metal-catalyzed alcohol oxidation reactions.

Bio-inspired lanthanum-ortho-quinone catalysis for aerobic alcohol oxidation: semi-quinone anionic radical as redox ligand. Nat Commun 2022; 13:428.

Abstract
Oxidation reactions are fundamental transformations in organic synthesis and chemical industry. With oxygen or air as terminal oxidant, aerobic oxidation catalysis provides the most sustainable and economic oxidation processes. Most aerobic oxidation catalysis employs redox metal as its active center. While nature provides non-redox metal strategy as in pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-dependent methanol dehydrogenases (MDH), such an effective chemical version is unknown. Inspired by the recently discovered rare earth metal-dependent enzyme Ln-MDH, here we show that an open-shell semi-quinone anionic radical species in complexing with lanthanum could serve as a very efficient aerobic oxidation catalyst under ambient conditions. In this catalyst, the lanthanum(III) ion serves only as a Lewis acid promoter and the redox process occurs exclusively on the semiquinone ligand. The catalysis is initiated by 1e--reduction of lanthanum-activated ortho-quinone to a semiquinone-lanthanum complex La(SQ-.)2, which undergoes a coupled O-H/C-H (PCHT: proton coupled hydride transfer) dehydrogenation for aerobic oxidation of alcohols with up to 330 h−1 TOF. A decade ago the first rare-earth-metal dependent enzyme was discovered, in which a non-redox lanthanide ion is central in the active site of a methanol dehydrogenase. Inspired by this discovery, here the authors show that an open-shell semi-quinone anionic radical species, complexed with lanthanum, could serve as a very efficient aerobic oxidation catalyst under ambient conditions.

Abstract
Biomimetic oxidation of primary amines to carboxylic acids has been developed where the copper-containing amine oxidase (CuAO)-like o-NQ-catalyzed aerobic oxidation was combined with the aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH)-like TBHP-mediated imine oxidation protocol. Notably, the current tandem oxidation strategy provides a new mechanistic insight into the imine intermediate and the seemingly simple TBHP-mediated oxidation pathways of imines. The developed metal-free amine oxidation protocol allows the use of molecular oxygen and TBHP, safe forms of oxidant that may appeal to the industrial application.

Abstract
A novel electrochemical protocol for the oxidative cleavage of indoles has been developed, which offers a simple way to access synthetically useful anthranilic acid derivatives. In undivided cells, a wide variety of indoles and alcohol compounds are examined to afford amide ester aromatics without using extra oxidants and stoichiometric metal catalysts, which avoids the formation of undesired by-products and exhibits high atom economy. The products we described in this perspective represent a synthetic intermediate in numerous drug molecules and industrial chemical reagents and remarkably show potential application in the future.

Abstract
Mediated by 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ), a novel oxidative coupling of hydrazones and 1,3-diarylpropenes has been disclosed to generate appealing β,γ-unsaturated hydrazones, which further undergo 5-exo-trig or 6-endo-trig cascade cyclization to give the respective 1,2-dihydropyridazines or pyrazoles selectively under metal-free conditions. The mechanisms of the coupling and subsequent cyclization are proposed.

Abstract
AbstractA highly regioselective [3+2] cyclization of alkenes with 2-iodoanilines under the irradiation of UV light is described. This general, metal-free strategy facilitates the direct preparation of 2-mono-/disubstituted indolines as well as spiroindolines through alkene carboamination in one step. Mechanistic studies suggested that the photochemical protocol proceeded via a radical pathway.

Abstract
The development of new one-pot sequential cyclizations involving a Vilsmeier-Haack reaction followed by an organocatalyzed Mannich reaction is reported. This synthetic strategy gives access to functionalized indolizidines and quinolizidines in one operation from readily synthesized precursors. Yields and diastereoselectivities are good to excellent when formamides are used to trigger the key step, bearing either an electron-rich aryl or a pyrrole as the nucleophilic partner in the first cyclization.

Abstract
A facile access to fused pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives has been established by using the metal-free ortho-naphthoquinone-catalyzed aerobic cross-coupling reactions of amines. The utilization of two readily available amines allowed a direct coupling strategy to quinazolinone natural product, bouchardatine, as well as sildenafil (Viagra™) in a highly convergent manner. Fused pyrimidin-4(3H)-one derivatives have been accessed by using the ortho-naphthoquinone-catalyzed aerobic cross-coupling reactions of amines.![]()
