New methods to synthesize and functionalize polymers are of constant interest to the polymer scientist. The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between an azide and terminal alkyne has received much attention since the reports that copper(i) provides high yields and regioselective synthesis of 1,4-substituted 1,2,3-triazoles. This coupling chemistry has been rapidly adopted by polymer scientists in the synthesis and post-polymerization modification of polymers. This Review will provide the historical context of the recent development of the copper-mediated azide–alkyne cycloaddition and its use in polymer science, particularly in dendrimer synthesis/functionalization, surface immobilization/modification, orthogonally functionalizing polymers, and its integration with ATRP (atom transfer radical polymerization).

Graphene-based nanocomposites constitute an interesting and promising material for various applications. Intensive progress in the development of this group of materials offers an opportunity to create new systems useful for drinking water decontamination or other biotechnological applications. Nanohybrid structures of graphene-ceramic systems can be obtained using covalent graphene surface modification with nanoparticles (NPs) of ceramic and/or co-deposition of metals with selected morphology and chemistry. The present paper systematizes the associated bio-related knowledge and inspires future development of graphene/NPs systems. Emerging knowledge and unique research techniques are reviewed within designing the required nanocomposite structure and chemical composition, development and optimization of new methods of covalent surface modification of graphene with NPs as well as analysis of mechanisms governing the formation of covalent bonding. Further, innovative research tools and methodologies are presented regarding the adjustment of functionalities of materials used for the application in drinking water decontamination or biocidal composites. This study provides a comprehensive base for rational development of more complex, hybrid graphene-based nanomaterials with various bio-functionalities that can be further applied in industrial practice.

Cu(OTf)2/DM-Segphos catalyzed asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of benzoisothiazole-2,2-dioxide-3-ylidenes and azomethine ylides was studied. The spiropyrrolidinyl-benzoisothiazolines were obtained in high yields with up to >99 : 1 dr and 99% ee.

A regiospecific palladium-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction using the operational equivalent of the dianion 1,3-dilithiopropyne, with aromatic iodides is reported. This reaction gives high yields of 1-propyn-1-yl-benzenes and 2-(propyn-1-yl)thiophenes in the presence of catalytic amounts of palladium(0) or (II) and stoichiometric amounts of copper iodide. No terminal alkyne or allene isomers were detected. Reaction conditions were very mild and several functional groups were tolerated.

New methods are reported which allow the synthesis of pure UCl5 and UCl6 in high yields. UCl5 is obtained by chlorination of UF5 · 2 SbF5 with BCl3 at low temperatures, UCl6 by direct chlorination of UCl4 in SbCl5.

A general and practical three-component regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 3-amino-oxindole-based azomethine ylides and coumarins has been developed. This reaction displayed good substrate tolerance and gave a diverse array of biologically relevant spiro[ox-­i­ndole-pyrrolidine-dihydrocoumarin] derivatives bearing four contiguous stereocenters including one spiro quaternary center in moderate to high yields (up to 90%) with high diastereoselectivities (up to 15:1 dr). It is based on the application of carboxylic acid activated coumarins as dienophiles followed by a decarboxylation process. The possible mechanism of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is proposed via an exo′-transition state. Furthermore, this is the first example of decarboxylative-mediated regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 3-amino-oxindole-based azomethine ylides and coumarins.

A simple, efficient and atom-economic method has been developed for the synthesis of complex alkaloid-like compounds with spiro-fused indolo[2,1-b]quinazoline and cyclopropa[a]pyrrolizine or 3-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane moieties. We have found that one-pot, three-component 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions allow the desired products to be obtained from various cyclopropene derivatives with tryptanthrin-derived azomethine ylides generated in situ, in good to high yields and excellent diastereoselectivity. The possibility of ylide generation was exemplified by using α-amino acids (l-proline, l-4-thiazolidincarboxylic acid) and simplest peptides (dipeptide Gly-Gly, tripeptide Gly-Gly-Gly). Quantum chemical investigations indicate that the reaction proceeds through the S-shaped azomethine ylide, the interaction of which with cyclopropenes proceeds via a less sterically hindered endo-transition state. The antitumor activity of some of spiro-tryptanthrin derivatives against erythroleukemia (K562), cervical carcinoma (HeLa) and colon carcinoma (CT26) cell lines was evaluated in vitro by MTS-assay.
