This account deals with an overview of our recent progress toward the development of molecular catalysts for the reduction in polar functionalities with molecular hydrogen (H2). An emphasis is placed on the newly designed Cp*Ru(PN) complexes, which have been identified as efficient catalysts for the hydrogenation of imides. The structural modification of the complex enhances the catalytic performance and allows efficient access to various chiral synthetic intermediates.

Ag3PO4as a photocatalyst has attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its great potential in harvesting solar energy for environmental purification and fuel production. The photocatalytic performance of Ag3PO4strongly depends on its morphology, exposed facets, and particle size. The effects of morphology and orientation of Ag3PO4on the catalytic performance and the efforts on the stability improvement of Ag3PO4are reviewed here. This paper also discusses the current theoretical understanding of photocatalytic mechanism of Ag3PO4, together with the recent progress towards developing Ag3PO4composite photocatalysts. The crucial issues that should be addressed in future research activities are finally highlighted.

: Natural products have remarkable structural diversity and biological characteristics, providing researchers with more possibilities to develop novel drugs for disease therapeutics. Andrographolide, an ent-labdane diterpenoid from traditional Chinese medicines, Andrographis paniculata, exhibits a broad range of biological activities, which has been a hot area of research for several years. Up to now, lots of its derivatives with multiple bioactivities have been prepared through chemical modification. This review summarizes andrographolide derivatives prepared in the last ten years (2006-present), classifies them by different biological activities, and provides some discussion about the design of novel and potent derivatives.

Polypyridyl ruthenium(II) complexes have been widely researched as promising functional molecules. We have found unique photoisomerization reactions of polypyridyl ruthenium(II) aquo complexes. Recently we have attempted to provide insight into the mechanism of the photoisomerization of the complexes and distinguish between the distal−/proximal-isomers in their physicochemical properties and functions. Moreover, polypyridyl ruthenium(II) aquo complexes have been intensively studied as active water oxidation catalysts (WOCs) which are indispensable for artificial photosynthesis. The catalytic aspect and mechanism of water oxidation by the distal-/proximal-isomers of polypyridyl ruthenium(II) aquo complexes have been investigated to provide the guided thought to develop more efficient molecular catalysts for water oxidation. The recent progress on the photoisomerization and water oxidation of polypyridyl ruthenium(II) aquo complexes in our group are reviewed to understand the properties and functions of ruthenium complexes.
