文摘The emergence of metal nanoclusters with atomically precise compositions and structures provides an opportunity for in-depth investigation of catalysis mechanisms and structure−property correlations at the nanoscale.However,a serious problem for metal nanocluster catalysts is that the ligands inhibit the catalytic activity through deactivating the surface of the nanoclusters.Here,we introduce a novel catalytic mode for metal nanoclusters,in which the nanoclusters initiate the catalysis via single electron transfer(SET)without destroying the integrity of nanoclusters,providing a solution for the contradiction between activity and stability of metal nanoclusters.We illustrated that the novel activation mode featured low catalyst loading(0.01 mol%),high TOF,mild reaction conditions,and easy recycling of catalyst in alkyne hydroborylation,which often suffered from poor selectivity,low functional group tolerance,etc.Furthermore,the catalyst[Au_(1)Cu_(14)(TBBT)_(12)(PPh_(3))_(6)]^(+)(TBBTH:p-tert-butylthiophenol)can be applied in highly efficient tandem processes such as hydroborylation−deuteration and hydroborylation−isomerization,demonstrating the utility of the introduced activation mode for metal nanoclusters.

文摘A simple electrochemically mediated method for the conversion of nitroarenes to aryl boronic esters is presented.Electrochemical borylation of a diverse range of nitroarenes,including the late-stage borylation of bioactive molecules,is furnished at room temperature under simple conditions,thereby demonstrating the broad utility and functional-group tolerance of this protocol.This transformation provides a convenient and practical access to aryl boronic esters from widely available nitroarenes,which would significantly streamline the synthetic process of diverse functionalized arenes.
