The photocatalytic carboxylation of aryl derivatives was demonstrated under CO2at atmospheric pressure using a mesoporous covalent organic framework (COF) as the active photocatalyst with triethylamine (TEA) as a sacrificial electron source under visible light. A yield of greater than 91% of the isolated product was achieved with 5 mg of catalyst. The reaction cycle is dependent on the use of the Ni(dmg)2co-catalyst and the sacrificial electron donor (TEA). The reaction does not occur in the absence of light (445 nm) even at elevated reaction temperature. We have also demonstrated that a yield of 32% of the isolated product could be obtained with the use of sunlight in the catalytic cycle. Additionally, this heterogeneous catalytic system was recyclable and reusable for several cycles.

The chlorination of aromatic carboxylic acids with SOCl2 has been effectively performed by reacting with a Br?nsted acid as the catalyst. Based on this discovery, an efficient catalytic method that is cheaper than traditional catalytic methods was developed. 20 substrates were chlorinated offering excellent yields in a short reaction time. And the SOCl2/Br?nsted acid system has been used in a larger scale preparative reaction. A dual activation mechanism was proposed to prove the irreplaceable system of SOCl2/Br?nsted acid.

The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAP) kinase 4 (MKK4) was found to be a major regulator of liver regeneration and could be a valuable drug target addressing liver related diseases by restoring its intrinsic regenerative capacity. We report on the synthesis and optimization of novel MKK4 inhibitors following a target-hopping strategy from the FDA-approved BRAFV600E inhibitor PLX4032 (8). Applying an iterative multi-parameter optimization process we carved out essential structural features yielding in compounds with a low nanomolar affinity for MKK4 and excellent selectivity profiles against the main off-targets MKK7 and JNK1, which, upon relevant inhibition, would totally abrogate the pro-regenerative effect of MKK4 inhibition, as well as against the off-targets MAP4K5, ZAK and BRAF with selectivity factors ranging from 40 to 430 for our best-balanced compounds 70 and 73.
