Abstract:: The Phosphorus-containing heterocycles are an important class of compounds in organic chemistry. Because of their potential application in many fields, especially the synthetic pesticides, medicine and catalyst, the Phosphorus-containing heterocycles have attracted continuous attention by organic synthesis scientists. The development of efficient and low-cost catalytic systems is great interest for construction heterocycles C–P bond. Usually, the Phosphorus-containing heterocycles is prepared via direct carbon–hydrogen (C–H) bond activation or pre-functionalized of heterocycles with carbon–hydrogen ( P-H) bond of phosphorus compounds reaction by metal-catalyzed. This review summarizes recent progress in the heterocycles C-P bond formation reactions by metal-catalyzed, which mainly focusing on the discussion of the reaction mechanism. Aims to provide efficient methods for the future synthesis and application in this field.

Single non-heme Fe(II) ions present as structural metals in several metal organic frameworks (e.g. MIL-100, MIL-101, MIL-808) are identified by Kohn-Sham density functional calculations as promising catalysts for C-H bond activation, with energetic barriers as low as 40 kJ mol<sup>-1</sup> for ethane and 60 kJ mol<sup>-1</sup> for methane following oxidative activation of iron. Through consideration of the full reaction profile leading to the corresponding alcohols ethanol and methanol, we have identified key changes in the chemical composition of the node that would modulate catalytic activity. The thermal and chemical stability of these MOFs together with the scalability of their syntheses make them attractive catalysts for the selective low temperature conversion of light alkanes to higher-value oxygenates.

We review the theoretical perspective for problems in adaptive optics, outline recent progress, and consider its application in the infrared. Techniques in adaptive optics are on the threshold of revolutionizing modern astronomy. These techniques are particularly applicable in the infrared, where refractive effects of turbulence are reduced, characteristic cell sizes are greater, and the isoplanatic patch diameter is increased. Adaptive techniques could be especially appropriate for modern large solar telescopes now under consideration that could operate in the infrared.
