<p>To mitigate global problems related to energy and global warming, it is helpful to develop an ammonia synthesis process using catalysts that are highly active under mild conditions. Here we show that the ammonia synthesis activity of Ru/Ba/LaCeO<i><sub>x</sub></i> pre-reduced at 700 °C is the highest reported among oxide-supported Ru catalysts. Our results indicate that low crystalline oxygen-deficient composite oxides, which include Ba<sup>2+</sup>, Ce<sup>3+</sup> and La<sup>3+</sup>, with strong electron-donating ability, accumulate on Ru particles and thus promote N≡N bond cleavage, which is the rate determining step for ammonia synthesis.</p>

Three distinct four-component supramolecular nanorotors were prepared, using, for the first time, bipyridine instead of phenanthroline stations in the stator. Following our established self-sorting protocol to multicomponent nanodevices, the nanorotors were self-assembled by mixing the stator, rotators with various pyridine head groups, copper(I) ions and 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO). Whereas the exchange of a phenanthroline vs. a bipyridine station did not entail significant changes in the rotational exchange frequency, the para-substituents at the pyridine head group of the rotator had drastic consequences on the speed: 4-OMe (k298 = 35 kHz), 4-H (k298 = 77 kHz) and 4-NO2 (k298 = 843 kHz). The exchange frequency (log k) showed an excellent linear correlation with both the Hammett substituent constants and log K of the copper(I)–ligand interaction, proving that rotator–copper(I) bond cleavage is the key determining factor in the rate-determining step.

We report an efficient method for the direct β-acylation of 2-ylideneoxindoles with acyl chlorides in the presence of base-catalyzed by organophosphanes. A variety of functionalized 2-ylideneoxindoles were prepared in moderate to good yields under metal-free and mild conditions via a tandem phospha-Michael/O-acylation/intramolecular cyclization/ rearrangement sequence. The mechanistic investigations revealed that the C-O bond cleavage on possible betaine intermediate is the key step for the installation of keto-functionality at β-position of 2-ylideneoxindoles in a highly stereospecific manner. The synthetic utility of this protocol could also be proven by scale-up reactions and synthetic transformations of the products.

AbstractPalladium-catalyzed Hiyama coupling of active thioureas via selective C–N bond cleavage is reported. Notably, the new approach employed active thioureas as coupling partners in the presence of arylsilanes to give amides in good yield. Further, this strategy, which utilized CuF2 as a key oxidant and activator, afforded various amide products under mild conditions and an easy to handle procedure without extra base.

A small molecule, namely nitroacenaphthene, is reported for the first time as a recyclable visible-light photocatalyst for the construction of the C=N bond from sulfonyl azides and amines. This scalable, site-selective protocol provides a convenient way to access various sulfonyl amidines under mild conditions. Two reaction pathways are proposed, according to different transformation patterns.
