    Manganese-catalyzed selective C–H activation and deuteration by means of a catalytic transient directing group strategy
    (London : Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC), 2021) Kopf, Sara; Neumann, Helfried; Beller, Matthias
    A novel manganese-catalyzed C-H activation methodology for selective hydrogen isotope exchange of benzaldehydes is presented. Using D2O as a cheap and convenient source of deuterium, the reaction proceeds with excellent functional group tolerance. Highortho-selectivity is achieved in the presence of catalytic amounts of specific amines, whichin situform a transient directing group. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2021.

    Porphyrin-based porous organic frameworks are an important group of materials gaining interest due to their structural diversity and distinct opto-electronic properties. However, these materials are seldom explored for nonlinear optical (NLO) applications. In this work, we investigate a thiazolo[5,4-d]thiazole-bridged porous, porphyrin framework (Por-TzTz-POF) with promising NLO properties. The planar TzTz moiety coupled with integrated porphyrin units enables efficient π-conjugation and charge distribution in the Por-TzTz-POF resulting in a high nonlinear absorption coefficient (β = 1100 cm GW-1) with figure of merit (FoM) σ1/σ0 = 5571, in contrast to analogous molecules and material counterparts e.g. metal-organic frameworks (MOFs; β = ∼0.3-0.5 cm GW-1), molecular porphyrins (β = ∼100-400 cm GW-1), graphene (β = 900 cm GW-1), and covalent organic frameworks (Por-COF-HH; β = 1040 cm GW-1 and FoM = 3534).
