[PMID: 37515455 PMCID: PMC10952150 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202307907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 07/08/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023]
Abstract
Carbon-carbon (C-C) coupling of organic halides has been successfully achieved in homogeneous catalysis, while the limitation, e.g., the dependence on rare noble metals, complexity of the metal-ligand catalylst and the poor catalyst stability and recyclability, needs to be tackled for a green process. The past few years have witnessed heterogeneous photocatalysis as a green and novel method for organic synthesis processes. However, the study on C-C coupling of chloride substrates is rare due to the extremely high bond energy of C-Cl bond (327 kJ mol-1 ). Here, we report a robust heterogeneous photocatalyst (Cu/ZnO) to drive the homo-coupling of benzyl chloride with high efficiency, which achieves an unprecedented high selectivity of bibenzyl (93 %) and yield rate of 92 % at room temperature. Moreover, this photocatalytic process has been validated for C-C coupling of 10 benzylic chlorides all with high yields. In addition, the excellent stability has been observed for 8 cycles of reactions. With detailed characterization and DFT calculation, the high selectivity is attributed to the enhanced adsorption of reactants, stabilization of intermediates (benzyl radicals) for the selective coupling by the Cu loading and the moderate oxidation ability of the ZnO support, besides the promoted charge separation and transfer by Cu species.

Abstract
![]()
The preparation of
symmetrical (hetero)biaryls via arylazo sulfones
has been successfully carried out upon visible light irradiation in
the presence of PPh3AuCl as the catalyst. The present protocol
led to the efficient synthesis of a wide range of target compounds
in an organic-aqueous solvent under photocatalyst-free conditions.

Abstract
Electron transfer plays a major role in chemical reactions and processes, and this is particularly true of catalysis by nanomaterials. The advent of metal nanoparticle (NP) catalysts, recently including atomically precise nanoclusters (NCs) as parts of nanocatalyst devices has brought increased control of the relationship between NP and NC structures and their catalytic functions. Consequently, the molecular definition of these new nanocatalysts has allowed a better understanding and management of various kinds of electron transfer involved in the catalytic processes. This Minireview brings a chemist's view of several major aspects of electron-transfer functions concerning NPs and NCs in catalytic processes. Particular focus concerns the role of NPs and NCs as electron reservoirs and light-induced antenna in catalytic processes from H2 generation to more complex reactions and sustainable energy production.

Abstract
Aryl-aryl bond formation is one of the most important tools in modern organic synthesis.
Therefore, there is a high level of interest to develop green, effective reaction system to obtain biaryls.
This review summarized the recent advances in the metal-catalyzed Ullmann reaction in which
the aryl-aryl bond was formed directly. Furthermore, different types of catalytic mechanisms, especially
the surface reaction, have been summarized to help the design of the catalyst.
