HZSM-5-Catalyzed Isomerization of Alkylanilines
Weigert, F. J.
, p. 3296 - 3298 (1987)
Zeolite HZSM-5 catalyzes the equilibration of toluidines and ethylanilines by an intramolecular 1,2-shift mechanism.The three xylidines with the 1,2,4-substitution pattern are also interconverted by this catalyst.Larger methylanilines are neither formed nor consumed by the catalyst.

The YAP-TEAD transcriptional complex is responsible for the expression of genes that regulate cancer cell growth and proliferation. Dysregulation of the Hippo pathway due to overexpression of TEAD has been reported in a wide range of cancers. Inhibition of TEAD represses the expression of associated genes, demonstrating the value of this transcription factor for the development of novel anti-cancer therapies. We report herein the design, synthesis and biological evaluation of LM98, a flufenamic acid analogue. LM98 shows strong affinity to TEAD, inhibits its autopalmitoylation and reduces the YAP-TEAD transcriptional activity. Binding of LM98 to TEAD was supported by 19F-NMR studies while co-crystallization experiments confirmed that LM98 is anchored within the palmitic acid pocket of TEAD. LM98 reduces the expression of CTGF and Cyr61, inhibits MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell migration and arrests cell cycling in the S phase during cell division.
Highly selective hydrogenation of aromatic ketones to alcohols in water: effect of PdO and ZrO2

Pd/ZrO2and PdO/ZrO2composites, containing Pd or PdO nanoparticles, were prepared using an original one-step methodology. These nanocomposites catalyze the hydrogenation of acetophenone (AP) at 1 bar and 10 bar of H2in an aqueous solution. Compared to unsupported Pd or PdO nanoparticles, a remarkable increase in their activity was achieved as a result of interaction with zirconia. An unsupported PdO hydrogenated AP mainly to ethylbenzene (EB), while excellent regioselectivity towards 1-phenylethanol (PE) was obtained with PdO/ZrO2and it was preserved during recycling. Similarly, regioselectivity to PE was higher with Pd/ZrO2compared to unsupported Pd NPs. PdO and zirconia resulted in high selectivity to alcohols in the hydrogenation of substituted acetophenones.

In this work, catalytic hydrogen transfer as an effective, green, convenient and economical strategy is for the first time used to synthesize anilines and N-heterocyclic aromatic compounds from nitrobenzene and N-heterocycles in one step. Nevertheless, how to effectively reduce the possible effects of water on the catalyst by removal of the by-product water, and to further introduce water as the solvent based on green chemistry are still challenges. Since the structures and properties of carbon nanocomposites are easily modified by controllable construction, a one step pyrolysis process is used for controllable construction of micro/nano hierarchical carbon nanocomposites with core-shell structures and magnetic separation performance. Using various characterization methods and model reactions the relationship between the structure of Ni?NCFs (nickel-nitrogen-doped carbon frameworks) and catalytic performance was investigated, and the results show that there is a positive correlation between the catalytic performance and hydrophobicity of catalysts. Besides, the possible catalytically active sites, which are formed by the interaction of pyridinic N and graphitic N in the structure of nitrogen-doped graphene with the surfaces of Ni nanoparticles, should be pivotal to achieving the relatively high catalytic performance of materials. Due to its unique structure, the obtained Ni?NCF-700 catalyst with superhydrophobicity shows extraordinary performances toward the hydrogen transfer reaction of nitrobenzene and N-heterocycles in the aqueous state; meanwhile, it was also found that Ni?NCF-700 still retained its excellent catalytic activity and structural integrity after three cycles. Compared with traditional catalytic systems, our catalytic systems offer a highly effective, green and economical alternative for nitrobenzene and N-heterocycle transformation, and may open up a new avenue for simple construction of structure and activity defined carbon nanocomposite heterogeneous catalysts with superhydrophobicity.
