Benzylic stereocenters are found in bioactive and drug molecules, as enantiopure benzylic alcohols have been used to build such a stereogenic center, but are limited to the construction of a C-C bond. Silylation of alkyl alcohols has the potential to build bioactive molecules and building blocks; however, the development of such a process is challenging and unknown. Herein, we describe an unprecedented AgF-assisted nickel catalysis in the enantiospecific silylation of benzylic ethers.

Abstract: A new type melamine-based porous organic polymers (SZU-1) has been synthesized with melamine and 2,2′-bipyridyl-5,5′-dialdehyde by a one-pot method and fully characterized. Divalent palladium salts were coordinated to this polymer network which successfully catalyzed the nucleophilic addition reaction of arylboronic acids to aromatic aldehydes. With only 1.0?mol% heterogeneous catalyst loading, high reaction yields (>?85%) can be achieved in most cases. The scope of substrates was also investigated and the catalyst showed universal applicability. Graphic Abstract: The loose and porous melamine-based porous organic polymers (SZU-1) are synthesized by melamine and 2,2′-bipyridyl-5,5′-dialdehyde. The performance of SZU-1 was characterized and most of the substrates achieved high yield (> 85%) in the catalytic performance test.[Figure not available: see fulltext.]

The recent crystallization of the neuropeptide Y Y1 receptor (Y1R) in complex with the argininamide-type Y1R selective antagonist UR-MK299 (2) opened up a new approach toward structure-based design of nonpeptidic Y1R ligands. We designed novel fluorescent probes showing excellent Y1R selectivity and, in contrast to previously described fluorescent Y1R ligands, considerably higher (～100-fold) binding affinity. This was achieved through the attachment of different fluorescent dyes to the diphenylacetyl moiety in 2 via an amine-functionalized linker. The fluorescent ligands exhibited picomolar Y1R binding affinities (pKi values of 9.36-9.95) and proved to be Y1R antagonists, as validated in a Fura-2 calcium assay. The versatile applicability of the probes as tool compounds was demonstrated by flow cytometry- and fluorescence anisotropy-based Y1R binding studies (saturation and competition binding and association and dissociation kinetics) as well as by widefield and total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy of live tumor cells, revealing that fluorescence was mainly localized at the plasma membrane.
