Copper-catalyzed (or -mediated) asymmetric coupling reactions have received significant attention over the past few years. Especially the coupling reactions of aryl or alkyl halides with nucleophiles became a very powerful tool for the formation of C-C, C-N, C-O and other carbon-heteroatom bonds as well as for the construction of heteroatom-containing ring systems. This review summarizes the re...

Heteroatom-functionalized polyolefins are of fundamental interest and practical importance. This has spurred investigations of the copolymerization of polar and nonpolar olefins. We report the first syndiospecific polymerization of a series of heteroatom-containing α-olefins and their copolymerization with ethylene catalyzed by half-sandwich rare-earth complexes. We have found that the interact...

Four binol based pyrrole carboxamide chiral receptors has been synthesized and effectively used as a Chirality Conversion Reagent (CCR) for underivatized amino acids. Three points of interactions take place for the conversion process. They are the reversible imine formation, the internal resonance assisted Hydrogen Bonding (RAHB) and the additional hydrogen bonds between the amino acids and the...

The mol-ecular structure of the title compound, C(21)H(15)ClN(2)O(2), features one strong intra-molecular N-H⋯O resonance-assisted hydrogen bond (RAHB). In the crystal, mol-ecules form inversion-related dimers via pairs of weak inter-molecular N-H⋯O contacts. These dimers are further stabilized via three weak C-H⋯O contacts, developing the three-dimensional structure.

The selective cleavage of carbon–carbon or carbon–heteroatom bonds is well known, whereas the enantioselective cleavage of ...

Stability of the π-π stacking interactions in the Ben||N-substituted-coronene complexes was studied using the computational quantum chemistry methods (where Ben is benzene and || denotes π-π stacking interaction, and N-substituted-coronene is coronene molecule which substituted with different number of N atoms). The results reveal simultaneous effects of structure and number of Heteroatom on th...

The emissive states of carbon dots have been tuned by controlling the charge transfer process. The carbon dots couple with molecules, which are made of a benzene ring and different heteroatom substituents, through amino-carboxylic bonds that are generally identified as charge transfer promoters at the interface. New ways of radiative recombination are created due to the transfer of photo-excite...

Over the past 30 years, heteroatom-containing aluminophosphate molecular sieves as a prime class of heterogeneous single-site solid catalysts have been quickly developed since the first discovery of aluminophosphate molecular sieves in 1982, and a large variety of such materials with 48 unique zeotype structures have been prepared. This work mainly presents the progress in the development of he...
