    Full Paper http://www.paper.edu.cn ‘‘Click’’ on Conducting Polymer Coated Electrodes: A Versatile Platform for the Modification of Electrode Surfacesa Yan Li, Weixia Zhang, Jing Chang, Jinchun Chen, Guangtao Li,* Yong Ju* Two types of N-substituted pyrroles with azide and terminal alkyne groups have been synthesized and electropolymerized. ‘‘Click’’ chemistry, specifically Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, was used as a general method for functionalization of the polypyrrole films. Several model compounds, including redox active (quinone), bioactive (cholic acid) and recognition elements (carbohydrate and thymi- dine) could easily be attached onto the electrode surfaces without loss of functionality or the elec- troactivity of the underlying conducting polymers. The results suggest that the polypyrrole films are clickable and provide a novel biocompatible and versatile platform for efficient modifications on electrode surfaces. Introduction catalysis.[1,2] A key factor in such investigations and applications is the achievement of an efficient interface The immobilization of functional units, such as electro- between the functional groups and the conductive active, bioactive and biological recognition elements, onto surface.[3,4] conductive surfaces is of enormous interest, both in Compared to various protocols developed for confining studies of functional groups themselves and in numerous functional units onto solid surfaces, electrodeposition of applications ranging from disease diagnosis to electro- conducting polymers offers a simple and

  • Electrooxidation Enables Highly Regioselective Dearomative Annulation of Indole and Benzofuran Derivatives
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-019-13829-4 OPEN Electrooxidation enables highly regioselective dearomative annulation of indole and benzofuran derivatives Kun Liu1, Wenxu Song1, Yuqi Deng1, Huiyue Yang1, Chunlan Song1, Takfaoui Abdelilah1, Shengchun Wang 1, Hengjiang Cong 1, Shan Tang1 & Aiwen Lei1* 1234567890():,; The dearomatization of arenes represents a powerful synthetic methodology to provide three-dimensional chemicals of high added value. Here we report a general and practical protocol for regioselective dearomative annulation of indole and benzofuran derivatives in an electrochemical way. Under undivided electrolytic conditions, a series of highly functio- nalized five to eight-membered heterocycle-2,3-fused indolines and dihydrobenzofurans, which are typically unattainable under thermal conditions, can be successfully accessed in high yield with excellent regio- and stereo-selectivity. This transformation can also tolerate a wide range of functional groups and achieve good efficiency in large-scale synthesis under oxidant-free conditions. In addition, cyclic voltammetry, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and kinetic studies indicate that the dehydrogenative dearomatization annulations arise from the anodic oxidation of indole into indole radical cation, and this process is the rate- determining step. 1 College of Chemistry and Molecular Sciences, Institute for Advanced Studies (IAS), Wuhan University, Wuhan 430072, P.

    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42004-021-00460-y OPEN Organophotocatalytic dearomatization of indoles, pyrroles and benzo(thio)furans via a Giese-type transformation Yueteng Zhang1, Peng Ji1, Feng Gao1, Yue Dong1, He Huang2, Changqing Wang1, Ziyuan Zhou3 & ✉ Wei Wang 1 Accessing fascinating organic and biological significant indolines via dearomatization of indoles represents one of the most efficient approaches. However, it has been difficult for the dearomatization of the electron deficient indoles. Here we report the studies leading to 1234567890():,; developing a photoredox mediated Giese-type transformation strategy for the dear- omatization of the indoles. The reaction has been implemented for chemoselectively breaking indolyl C=C bonds embedded in the aromatic system. The synthetic power of this strategy has been demonstrated by using structurally diverse indoles bearing common electron- withdrawing groups including (thio)ester, amide, ketone, nitrile and even aromatics at either C2 or C3 positions and ubiquitous carboxylic acids as radical coupling partner with high trans- stereoselectivity (>20:1 dr). This manifold can also be applied to other aromatic heterocycles including pyrroles, benzofurans and benzothiophenes. Furthermore, enantioselective dear- omatization of indoles has been achieved by a chiral camphorsultam auxiliary with high diastereoselectivity. 1 Departments of Pharmacology and Toxicology and Chemistry and Biochemistry, and BIO5 Institute, University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ, USA. 2 Department of Chemistry and Chemical

Amines: Their classification Alkyl, aryl and ar-alkyl derivatives of ammonia are known as amines General formula is RNH2, R2NH, R3NH, where R can be any alkyl, aryl or aralkyl group. Amines are classified in to primary, secondary and tertiary amines depending upon the number of Hydrogen atoms in ammonia replaced by alkyl or aryl group. If one of hydrogen atom in NH3 is replaced by alkyl or aryl group, the derivative of ammonia so obtained is known as primary amine, if two hydrogen atoms in ammonia are replaced by alkyl, aryl or ar-alkyl groups, the derivative obtained is known as secondary amine, while as if all H atoms in ammonia are replaced by alkyl aryl or aralkyl groups, a tertiaty amine is obtained as shown below: The R groups can be alkyl, aryl or aralkyl groups.

  • Indoles Indoles Are Very Commonly Encountered in Nature and Many
    Indoles Indoles are very commonly encountered in nature and many, many individual examples which have biological implcations. Below is a very small selection of examples.

A. Fischer Indole Synthesis Reviews: Gribble, G. W. J. Chem. Soc., Perkin trans 1 2000 , 1045; Humphrey, G. R.; Kuethe, J. T. Chem. Rev. 2006 , 106 , 2875. The Fischer Indole Synthesis is the reaction of a hydrazine derivative of a ketone or aldehyde formed from an aryl hydrazine. It is a multistep process involving a sigmatropic rearrangement, much like the Cope or Claisen rearrangement. It can occur purely thermally, but is normally done at much lower temperature in the presence of a protic acid or Lewis acid. Polyphosphoric acid, 100 oC are often used conditions. 2 R2 R -H O acid or + R1 2 N R1 Lewis acid NH R1 2 N ∆ N H ∆∆ N H O R2 H Here is the mechanism: 2 R R2 2 2 R [3,3]- R R1 -H+ R1 H+ R1 sigmatropic R1 rearr.
