Sulfur dioxide and its derivatives (HSO3−/SO32-) play a crucial role in maintaining the redox balance of biological systems. Therefore, the development of effective detection methods for sulfur dioxide and its derivatives is of paramount importance. Herein, a novel fluorescent probe, QLN, was designed and synthesized using small molecule quinoline, demonstrating the capacity to recognize HSO3− through Michael addition reaction. The probe QLN displayed good selectivity and anti-interference capabilities for HSO3− recognition, effectively operating within a wide pH range (5–9) and exhibiting a rapid response time (<5 s). Practical applications revealed the potential of probe QLN for detecting HSO3− in living cells and food samples.

The construction of C(sp³)-P bonds is of paramount importance in organic synthesis, catalysis, and materials science. Organophosphorus compounds containing C(sp³)-P bonds serve as pivotal structural motifs in ligands, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and functional materials. While traditional methods for C(sp³)-P bond formation largely rely on nucleophilic substitution or coupling of reactive organometallic reagents, recent years have witnessed significant advancements in metal-catalyzed approaches. This review highlights the recent developments in C(sp³)-P bond formation enabled by metals including Cu, Fe, Bi, Pd, Ni, Ru, Rh, and Co, with particular emphasis on methodologies that activate simple C(sp³)-H bonds or utilize readily available chemical feedstocks. Key mechanistic paradigms, including photoredox/transition metal dual catalysis, metal-catalyzed radical processes, and photo-induced ligand-to-metal charge transfer (LMCT), are critically discussed. This review evaluates the mechanistic insights, applications, and limitations of these methodologies in the synthesis of organophosphorus compounds, and provides perspectives on future directions to promote further advancements in C(sp³)-P bond formation strategies.

Lipid droplets (LDs) are ubiquitous intracellular organelles present in various cell types, ranging from adipocytes to cancer cells. Despite their involvement in numerous diseases, current methodologies for monitoring LD dynamics rely primarily on static imaging with a limited selection of fluorescent dyes. In this study, we introduce two novel BODIPY-derived fluorophores designed to facilitate real-time monitoring of LD dynamics. By incorporating triphenylamino (TPA) moieties into the BODIPY core both asymmetrically and symmetrically, we modulated the fluorescence response to the green (GFP) and deep-red (Cy5) confocal channels, respectively, thus allowing dual-channel fluorescence capability for high-resolution, dynamic imaging of LDs within live cells, providing new insights into their behavior.

BODIPYs (Boron-dipyrromethenes) are a class of fluorophores widely used in a plethora of scientific applications in material science and biomedicine due to their exceptional optical properties. The modulation of the absorption and emission wavelengths of BODIPYs is an area with significant growth opportunities, allowing these compounds to be tailored for specific applications. This review addresses different synthetic strategies that could modify their electronic and optical properties of the BODIPY core, mainly the absorption and emission wavelengths (λabs = 422 nm - λemis = 753 nm and quantum yields up to Φc-hex = 100 %). These methodologies include reactions like nucleophilic substitutions with (chiral/achiral) primary and secondary amines, alkyl/aryl alcohols, active methylenes, as well as Liebeskind-Srogl, Sonogashira, Heck, and Suzuki cross-coupling reactions at the meso and peripheral positions of the BODIPY core. These synthetic strategies incorporate specific functional groups that influence the π-system conjugation, generation of AIEgens, and Donor-Acceptor (D-A) or Donor-Acceptor-Donor (D-A-D) architectures, enabling the labeling of biomolecules such as estrone and tyrosine.

The β-arylated meso-tetra(p-tolyl) triphyrins[2.1.1] containing two, three, and four p-fluorophenyl groups were synthesized by reacting appropriate β-bromo triphyrin[2.1.1] with p-fluorophenyl boronic acid in toluene/THF/H2O (1:1:1) at 80 οC for 8 h–12 h and their properties were compared with our previously reported β-arylated triphyrins[2.1.1] containing one and six p-fluorophenyl groups. The increase of the number of p-fluorophenyl groups at the β-pyrrole carbons induces steric hindrance at the periphery of triphyrin[2.1.1] that results in the alteration of electronic properties due to distortion in the macrocycle which is reflected in their structure, spectral and redox properties. The X-ray structure analysis revealed that β-di(p-fluorophenyl) meso-tetra(p-tolyl) triphyrin[2.1.1] was almost planar like meso-tetra(phenyl) triphyrin[2.1.1] whereas the β-hexa(p-fluorophenyl) meso-tetra(p-tolyl) triphyrin[2.1.1] was significantly distorted. The absorption spectra of β-arylated triphyrins[2.1.1] showed bathochromically shifted Soret and Q-bands with reduction in absorption coefficients and increase in the bandwidth compared to the β-unsubstituted meso-tetra(p-tolyl) triphyrin[2.1.1] and the maximum effects were noted for β-hexa(p-fluorophenyl) meso-tetra(p-tolyl) triphyrin[2.1.1]. The β-arylated meso-tetra(p-tolyl) triphyrins[2.1.1] are stable under electrochemical conditions and DFT/TD-DFT studies are in agreement with the experimental observations.

This research introduces a heterogeneous approach utilizing a resin-bound sulfonic acid catalyst (Dowex®-H) to synthesize benzo[f]indole-4,9-dione derivatives using β-enaminones systems and 2-bromonaphtoquinone. This method facilitates synthesizing a diverse range of compounds with varying substitution patterns, achieving yields of 88 %. The catalyst can be reused for up to five cycles without requiring reactivation. These compounds absorption spectra also show absorption (λmax) around 250–260 nm with a significant transition around 400 nm. Their photocatalytic potential was assessed by the model reaction of benzylamine photooxidation, achieving a yield of over 99 % within 36 h.

In this work, we report the synthesis of three series of 3,5-disubstituted isoxazoles (4a-d, 5a-d and 6a-d), as analogues of the clinically important drug baclofen. The isoxazole ring systems were assembled through the key copper-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between a nitrile oxide (generated in situ from nitro compounds) and an alkyne. An X-ray crystallography study shows that the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions proceeded with very high regioselectively, leading exclusively to the formation of the 3,5-disubstituted regio isomers. Additionally, it was possible to obtain these compounds in enantiomerically pure form using SuperQuat-type chiral auxiliary. As suggested by our QSAR analysis and docking studies, these analogues have the potential to be biologically active as GABAB receptor modulators. Finally, the absorption, distribution, properties of metabolism and excretion (ADME) of the synthesized molecules was also determined by a computational approach. From this work we obtained five molecules ((S)-4d, (S)-5b, (S)-6b, (S)-6c and (S)-6d) as potential GABAB receptor agonists.

A simple and mild catalytic SN2′-type displacement of propargyl halides with organotitanium reagents is reported. The SN2′-type displacement of propargyl bromides with organotitanium reagents mediated by CuI (2 mol%)/MePPh2(4 mol%) in dichloro methane afforded multi-substituted allenes in good yields (up to 95 %) at 40 °C for 5 h. The aryls bearing electron-donating or electron-withdrawing groups in aryltitanium reagents gave multi-substituted allenes in good yields. In addition, the di-substituted allenes bearing a naphthyl group was obtained in 54–99 % selectivities with isolated yields of 43–83 %. The process was simple and easily performed, and it provides an efficient method for the synthesis of di-substituted allene derivatives. On the basis of the experimental results, a possible catalytic cycle has been proposed.

On the basis of the experimental results, a possible catalytic cycle has been proposed.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":437,"journal":{"name":"Tetrahedron","volume":"168 ","pages":"Article 134345"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142654179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
