Due to the prevalence of nitrogen-containing compounds in medicine, materials, and related fields, the search for general, mild methods for electrophilic amination remains an area of intense research. Diazirines have been recently demonstrated to serve as electrophilic amination reagents that afford diaziridines, versatile heterocycles that are readily transformed into amines, hydrazines, and a variety of nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Here we report the phosphine-mediated, photodecarboxylative amination of redox-active esters with diazirines. This method is transition metal-free, uses inexpensive photoactivators under mild conditions, and offers a significantly enhanced scope and yields for primary redox-active esters. Furthermore, the stability of diazirines to blue light (456 nm) is demonstrated, paving the way for further research into other photochemical amination methods with these unique heterocycles.

AbstractThe regioselective 1,4-conjugate aza-Michael addition of dienones with benzotriazole catalyzed by potassium acetate is described. A series of 3-(benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,5-diarylpent-4-en-1-ones were efficiently synthesized under mild conditions. This protocol has advantages of transition-metal free catalyst, high yield and high regioselectivity.

<div> <div> <div> <p>4-Acetamido-2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-oxopiperidinium tetrafluoroborate (Bobbitt’s salt) effectively activates electron rich alkenes and promotes the addition of anilines. This transformation provides a direct, transition metal free method for amino-oxidation of alkenes under mild conditions. The relative stereochemistry of the amino-oxidation is influenced by solvent effects, with both the syn and anti amino-oxidation products being accessible from identical starting materials. </p> </div> </div> </div>

A non-aqueous redox flow battery based on all-PEGylated, metal-free compounds is presented. The PEGylation enhances the stability of the redox-active materials, alleviating crossover by increasing the anolyte and catholyte species’ molecular sizes.
