RESUMO
The dehydrogenation of glycerol to lactic acid (LA) under both acceptorless and transfer dehydrogenation conditions using readily available, inexpensive, environmentally benign and earth-abundant base metal salt CoCl2 is reported here. The CoCl2 (0.5â mol %) catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenation of glycerol at 160 °C in the presence of 0.75â equiv. of KOH, gave up to 33 % yield of LA in 44 % selectivity apart from hydrogen. Alternatively, with acetone as a sacrificial hydrogen acceptor, the CoCl2 (0.5â mol %) catalyzed dehydrogenation of glycerol at 160 °C in the presence of 1.1â equiv. of NaOt Bu resulted in up to 93 % LA with 96 % selectivity along with another value-added product isopropanol. Labelling studies revealed a modest secondary KIE of 1.68 which points to the involvement of C-H bond activation as a part of the catalytic cycle but not as a part of the rate-determining step. Catalyst poisoning experiments with PPh3 and CS2 are indicative of the homogeneous nature of the reaction mixture involving molecular species that are likely to be in-situ formed octahedral Co(II) as inferred from EPR, HRMS and Evans magnetic moment studies. The net transfer dehydrogenation activity is attributed to exclusive contribution from the alcoholysis step.
RESUMO
Preparing valuable olefins from cheap and abundant alkane resources has long been a challenging task in organic synthesis, which mainly suffers from harsh reaction conditions and narrow scopes. Homogeneous transition metals catalyzed dehydrogenation of alkanes has attracted much attention for its excellent catalytic activities under relatively milder conditions. Among them, base metal catalyzed oxidative alkane dehydrogenation has emerged as a viable strategy for olefin synthesis for its usage of cheap catalysts, compatibility with various functional groups, and low reaction temperature. In this review, we discuss recent development of base metal catalyzed alkane dehydrogenation under oxidative conditions and their application in constructing complex molecules.
RESUMO
The Current deposit is hosted by serpentinized peridotite that intruded rocks of the Quetico Subprovince in the Midcontinent Rift, and is subdivided into three morphologically distinct regions - the shallow and thin Current-Bridge Zone in the northwest, the deep and thick 437-Southeast Anomaly (SEA) Zone in the southeast, and the thick Beaver-Cloud Zone in the middle. The magma parental to the Current deposit became saturated in sulfide as a result of the addition of external S from at least two sources - a deep source characterized by high Δ33S (< 3) values, and a shallow source, potentially the Archean metasedimentary country rocks, characterized by low Δ33S (< 0.3). Variations in Δ33S-S/Se-Cu/Pd values indicate that the contamination signatures were largely destroyed by interaction of the sulfide liquid with large volumes of uncontaminated silicate melt. The intrusion crystallized sequentially, with the Current-Bridge Zone crystallizing first, followed by the Beaver-Cloud Zone, and lastly by the 437-SEA Zone. This, along with the elevated Cu/Pd ratios in the 437-SEA Zone, which formed as a result of sulfide segregation during an earlier saturation event, and development of igneous layering in this zone, suggests that it represents the feeder channel to the Current deposit. After the intrusion crystallized, the base-metal sulfide mineralogy was modified by circulation of late-stage hydrothermal fluids, with pyrrhotite and pentlandite being replaced by pyrite and millerite, respectively. This fluid activity mobilized metals and semi-metals, including Fe, Ni, S, Se, Co, Cu, Ag, and As, but did not affect the PGE. This contribution highlights the importance of the interplay between magma dynamics and magmatic-hydrothermal processes in the formation of Ni-Cu-PGE-mineralized deposits.

RESUMO
Currently, numerous ongoing studies are investigating the interaction of free radicals with biological systems, such as lipids, DNA and protein. In the present work, synthesis, characterization, antioxidant, DNA binding and molecular docking studies of Schiff base ligand and its Ni(II), Co(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) were evaluated. The metal complexes have shown significant dose-dependent antioxidant activities higher than those of the free ligand but lesser than those of the standard antioxidant, ascorbic acid. The DNA binding constants (Kb) were found in the order Zn(pimp)2 {9.118 × 105 M-1} > H-pimp {3.487 × 105 M-1} > Co(pimp)2 {3.090 × 105 M-1} > Ni(pimp)2 {1.858 × 105 M-1} > Cu(pimp)2 {1.367 × 105 M-1}. Binding constants (Kb) values calculated from the molecular docking analysis were found to be in close agreement with the experimental results. The obtained results indicate the importance of synthesis complexes as a source of synthetic antioxidants and anticancer drugs.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) management is an essential municipal service. Proper waste treatment is an important part of the waste management. Thermocatalytic waste upcycling has recently gained great interest and attention as a method to extract value from waste, which potentially substitutes traditional waste treatment methods. This study aims at demonstrating the potential for thermocatalytic waste upcycling using spent disposable wipes as an MSW surrogate. Two different Ni/Al2O3 catalysts were prepared, treated under two different atmospheres (N2 and CO2). The catalyst treated in N2 (Ni/Al2O3-N2) exhibited a higher surface metallic Ni site than the catalyst treated in CO2 (Ni/Al2O3-CO2). The use of the Ni/Al2O3-N2 increased the yield of gas pyrolysate and decreased the yield of byproduct (e.g., wax), compared with no catalyst and the Ni/Al2O3-CO2. In particular, the Ni/Al2O3-N2 catalyst affected the generation of gaseous hydrogen (H2) by increasing the H2 yield by up to 102% in comparison with the other thermocatalytic systems. The highest H2 yield obtained with the Ni/Al2O3-N2 was attributed to the most surface metallic Ni sites. However, the Ni/Al2O3-N2 catalyst led to char having a lower higher heating value than the other catalysts due to its lowest carbon content. The results indicated that the reduction treatment environment for Ni/Al2O3 catalyst influences thermocatalytic conversion product yields of spent disposable wipes, including enhanced H2 production.

RESUMO
A phosphine-oxide-promoted, cobalt-catalysed reductive etherification using syngas as a reductant is reported. This novel methodology was successfully used to prepare a broad range of unsymmetrical ethers from various aldehydes and alcohols containing diverse functional groups, and was scaled-up to multigram scale under comparably mild conditions. Mechanistic experiments support an acetalization-hydrogenation sequence.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: To compare the load to fracture of cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr) 3-unit posterior fixed partial denture (FPD) frameworks manufactured by conventional and digital techniques and to evaluate the influence of the framework design on the fracture load. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Eighty 3-unit Co-Cr posterior FPD frameworks were fabricated with two designs: intermediate pontic (n = 40) and cantilever (n = 40). Each design was randomly divided into four groups (n = 10): casting, direct metal laser sintering, soft metal milling, and hard metal milling. After thermal cycling, all specimens were subjected to a 3-point bending test until fracture. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA, Welch and Brown-Forsythe test, Ryan-Einot-Gabriel-Welsch F and Tamhane T2 post hoc test, Student's t test, and Weibull statistics (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Significant differences (p < 0.001; F = 39.59) were found among intermediate pontic frameworks (except between laser sintering and hard metal milling), and cantilevered frameworks (F = 36.75) (except between laser sintering and hard metal milling, and casting and soft metal milling). The cantilever groups showed load to fracture values significantly lower than those of the intermediate pontic (p < 0.001; F = 28.29). The Weibull statistics corroborated the results. CONCLUSIONS: Hard metal milling and laser sintered frameworks exhibited the highest load to fracture values. However, all tested frameworks demonstrated clinically acceptable load to fracture values. The framework design directly affected the fracture load, with drastically lower values in cantilevered frameworks.

A new base metal iron-cobalt dyad has been obtained by connection between a heteroleptic tetra-NHC iron(II) photosensitizer combining a 2,6-bis[3-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene]pyridine with 2,6-bis(3-methyl-imidazol-2-ylidene)-4,4'-bipyridine ligand, and a cobaloxime catalyst. This novel iron(II)-cobalt(III) assembly has been extensively characterized by ground- and excited-state methods like X-ray crystallography, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, (spectro-)electrochemistry, and steady-state and time-resolved optical absorption spectroscopy, with a particular focus on the stability of the molecular assembly in solution and determination of the excited-state landscape. NMR and UV/Vis spectroscopy reveal dissociation of the dyad in acetonitrile at concentrations below 1â mM and high photostability. Transient absorption spectroscopy after excitation into the metal-to-ligand charge transfer absorption band suggests a relaxation cascade originating from hot singlet and triplet MLCT states, leading to the population of the 3 MLCT state that exhibits the longest lifetime. Finally, decay into the ground state involves a 3 MC state. Attachment of cobaloxime to the iron photosensitizer increases the 3 MLCT lifetime at the iron centre. Together with the directing effect of the linker, this potentially makes the dyad more active in photocatalytic proton reduction experiments than the analogous two-component system, consisting of the iron photosensitizer and Co(dmgH)2 (py)Cl. This work thus sheds new light on the functionality of base metal dyads, which are important for more efficient and sustainable future proton reduction systems.
RESUMO
We report a means to achieve the addition of two disparate nucleophiles to the amide carbonyl carbon in a single operational step. Our method takes advantage of non-precious-metal catalysis and allows for the facile conversion of amides to chiral alcohols via a one-pot Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling/transfer-hydrogenation process. This study is anticipated to promote the development of new transformations that allow for the conversion of carboxylic acid derivatives to functional groups bearing stereogenic centers via cascade processes.

Hydrogen isotope exchange (HIE) has played an increasingly important role in deuteration and tritiation of compounds in the pharmaceutical industry. Transition metal-catalyzed HIE methods have gained considerable attention in the past decades, and most of these methods were comprehensively reviewed in 2010 in a special JLCR issue. It covered a wide variety of HIE catalysis systems involving precious metal catalysts, and a relatively small percentage of base metal catalysts, with a major focus on heterogeneous nickel. While base metal catalysts have remained underdeveloped for HIE chemistry relative to second and third row transition metal catalysts, in recent years, the first examples of homogeneous iron, nickel, and cobalt catalysts have been introduced to the field. Hence, in this review, we describe the recent development of base metal catalysts for HIE and their applications in isotopic labeling of pharmaceutical compounds. These research efforts have resulted in the development of labeling approaches that complement traditional methods in terms of activity and selectivity, thus diversifying the methodologies available for isotope chemists.

Isocyanides are diverse C1 building blocks considering their potential to react with nucleophiles, electrophiles, and radicals. Therefore, perhaps not surprisingly, isocyanides are highly valuable as inputs for multicomponent reactions (MCRs) and other one-pot cascade processes. In the field of organometallic chemistry, isocyanides typically serve as ligands for transition metals. The coordination of isocyanides to metal centers alters the electronic distribution of the isocyano moiety, and reaction pathways can therefore be accessed that are not possible in the absence of the metal. The tunable reactivity of the isocyanide functional group by transition metals has evolved into numerous useful applications. Especially palladium-catalyzed isocyanide insertion processes have emerged as powerful reactions in the past decade. However, reports on the use of earth-abundant and cheap base metals in these types of transformations are scarce and have received far less attention. In this Minireview, we focus on these emerging base metal catalyzed reactions and highlight their potential in synthetic organic chemistry. Although mechanistic studies are still scarce, we discuss distinct proposed catalytic cycles and categorize the literature according to 1)â the (hetero)atom bound to and 2)â the type of bonding with the transition metal in which the (formal) insertion occurs.
RESUMO
Four new metal complexes were synthesized and screened for their cytotoxic activity after sufficient assertion from the preliminary DNA binding studies. The metal complexes could bind to CT-DNA through intercalation binding mode. This has also been confirmed by the molecular docking studies. The DNA cleavage efficiencies of these complexes with pBR322 DNA were investigated by gel electrophoresis. The complexes were found to promote the cleavage of pBR322 DNA from the supercoiled form I to the open circular form II in the presence of an oxidizing agent (H2O2). The in vitro chemosensitivity of the studied complexes exhibits significant cytotoxic effects, compared to those reported for cisplatin. These findings represent a prompting to search for the probable interaction of these complexes with other cellular elements of fundamental consequence in cell proliferation. The in vitro anticancer activities indicate that the Cu(II) complex is active against the selected human tumor cell lines, and the order of in vitro anticancer activities is consistent with the DNA-binding affinities. Towards noncancerous cell line, Cu(II) complex exhibits very low toxicity. On the other hand all the complexes have been found to exhibit cytotoxic effects against cancerous cell lines with potency more than that of the widely used drug cisplatin and hence they have the potential to act as promising anticancer agents. Captivatingly, they are non-toxic to normal cell lymphocytes revealing that they are selective in killing only the cancer cells.

The scarcity of precious metals has led to the development of sustainable strategies for metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The establishment of new catalytic methods using iron is attractive owing to the low cost, abundance, ready availability, and very low toxicity of iron. In the last few years, sustainable methods for iron-catalyzed cross-couplings have entered the critical area of pharmaceutical research. Most notably, iron is one of the very few metals that have been successfully field-tested as highly effective base-metal catalysts in practical, kilogram-scale industrial cross-couplings. In this Minireview, we critically discuss the strategic benefits of using iron catalysts as green and sustainable alternatives to precious metals in cross-coupling applications for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals. The Minireview provides an essential introduction to the fundamental aspects of practical iron catalysis, highlights areas for improvement, and identifies new fields to be explored.

Density functional theory study of the hydrogenation of carbon dioxide to methanol catalyzed by iron, cobalt, and manganese cyclopentadienone complexes reveals a self-promoted mechanism, which features a methanol- or water-molecule-assisted proton transfer for the cleavage of H2 . The total free energy barrier of the formation of methanol from CO2 and H2 catalyzed by Knölker's iron cyclopentadienone complex, [2,5-(SiMe3 )2 -3,4-(CH2 )4 (η5 -C4 COH)]Fe(CO)2 H, is 26.0â kcal mol-1 in the methanol solvent. We also evaluated the catalytic activities of 8 other experimentally reported iron cyclopentadienone complexes and 37 iron, cobalt, and manganese cyclopentadienone complexes proposed in this study. In general, iron and manganese complexes have relatively higher catalytic activities. Among all calculated complexes, [2,5-(SiMe3 )2 -3,4-CH3 CHSCH2 (η5 -C4 COH)]Fe(CO)2 H (1Fe-Casey-S-CH3 ) is the most active one with a total free energy barrier of 25.1â kcal mol-1 in the methanol solvent. Such a low barrier indicates that 1Fe-Casey-S-CH3 is a very promising low-cost and high efficiency catalyst for the conversion of CO2 and H2 to methanol under mild conditions.
RESUMO
Non-precious-metal-catalyzed reactions are of increasing importance in chemistry due to the outstanding ecological and economic properties of these metals. In the subfield of metal-catalyzed direct C-H functionalization reactions, recent years have shown an increasing number of publications dedicated to this topic. Nickel, cobalt, and last but not least iron, have started to enter a field which was long dominated by precious metals such as palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, and iridium. The present review article summarizes the development of iron-, nickel-, and cobalt-catalyzed C-H functionalization reactions until the end of 2016, and discusses the scope and limitations of these transformations.
RESUMO
AIMS: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the shear bond strength of porcelain to the alloys of nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr), cobalt-chromium (Co-Cr), and titanium. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 40 samples (25 mm × 3 mm × 0.5 mm) were fabricated using smooth casting wax and cast using Ni-Cr, Co-Cr, and titanium alloys followed by porcelain buildup. The samples were divided into four groups with each group containing 10 samples (Group A1-10: sandblasted Ni-Cr alloy, Group B1-10: sandblasted Co-Cr alloy, Group C1-10: nonsandblasted titanium alloy, and Group D1-10: sandblasted titanium alloy). Shear bond strength was measured using a Universal Testing Machine. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED: ANOVA test and Tukey's honestly significance difference post hoc test for multiple comparisons. RESULTS: The mean shear bond strength values for these groups were 22.8960, 27.4400, 13.2560, and 25.3440 MPa, respectively, with sandblasted Co-Cr alloy having the highest and nonsandblasted titanium alloy having the lowest value. CONCLUSION: It could be concluded that newer nickel and beryllium free Co-Cr alloys and titanium alloys with improved strength to weight ratio could prove to be good alternatives to the conventional nickel-based alloys when biocompatibility was a concern.
RESUMO
The methylene group of various substituted 2- and 4-benzylpyridines, benzyldiazines and benzyl(iso)quinolines was successfully oxidized to the corresponding benzylic ketones using a copper or iron catalyst and molecular oxygen as the stoichiometric oxidant. Application of the protocol in API synthesis is exemplified by the alternative synthesis of a precursor to the antimalarial drug Mefloquine. The oxidation method can also be used to prepare metabolites of APIs which is illustrated for the natural product papaverine. ICP-MS analysis of the purified reaction products revealed that the base metal impurity was well below the regulatory limit.
RESUMO
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of silica-lasing method for improving the composite resin repair of metal ceramic restorations. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Sixty Ni-Cr cylindrical specimens were fabricated. The bonding surface of all specimens was airborne-particle abraded using 50 µm aluminum oxide particles. Specimens were divided into six groups that received the following surface treatments: group 1-airborne-particle abrasion alone (AA); group 2-Nd:YAG laser irradiation (LA); group 3-silica coating (Si-CO); group 4-silica-lasing (metal surface was coated with slurry of opaque porcelain and irradiated by Nd:YAG laser) (Si-LA); group 5-silica-lasing plus etching with HF acid (Si-LA-HF); group 6-CoJet sand lased (CJ-LA). Composite resin was applied on metal surfaces. Specimens were thermocycled and tested in shear mode in a universal testing machine. The shear bond strength values were analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey's tests (α = 0.05). The mode of failure was determined, and two specimens in each group were examined by scanning electron microscopy and wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. RESULTS: Si-CO showed significantly higher shear bond strength in comparison to other groups (p < 0.001). The shear bond strength values of the LA group were significantly higher than those of the AA group (p < 0.05). No significant difference was found among lased groups (LA, Si-LA, Si-LA-HF, CJ-LA; p > 0.05). The failure mode was 100% adhesive for AA, Si-LA, Si-LA-HF, and CJ-LA. LA and Si-CO groups showed 37.5% and 87.5% cohesive failure, respectively. CONCLUSION: Silica coating of Ni-Cr alloy resulted in higher shear bond strength than those of other surface treatments.

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to compare the mechanical properties of beryllium-free nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) dental casting alloy before and after each porcelain firing cycle (once fired, twice fired, and thrice fired) and to relate these properties to the microstructural changes and changes in X-ray diffraction patterns of Ni-Cr alloy that occur after each porcelain firing cycle. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Forty tensile bar specimens and 20 disc-shaped specimens of Ni-Cr alloy were prepared. These specimens were divided into four groups. The first group was not heat treated and tested in the as-cast condition, thus serving as control group. The second, third, and fourth groups were fired once, twice, and thrice, respectively. Tensile bar specimens were loaded to failure in tension using a universal testing machine. Values of ultimate tensile strength, 0.1% yield strength, and percentage elongations were determined. Microstructural study and hardness testing were done using an optical microscope and digital Vickers hardness tester, respectively, on disc-shaped specimens. Disc-shaped specimens were again used to obtain the X-ray diffraction patterns by using diffractometer Bruker D8 focus. Statistical comparisons of the mechanical properties and hardness of the alloy were made with ANOVA. Intergroup comparisons of the data in the as-cast and fired specimens were analyzed by applying Tukey's HSD multiple comparison tests. RESULTS: Before porcelain firing, the alloy exhibited higher ultimate tensile strength (548 MPa), 0.1% yield strength (327 MPa), hardness (192 HV), and lower elongation values (18%). After each firing cycle, there was a significant (p < 0.001) decrease in ultimate strength (464 MPa for three times fired specimens), 0.1% yield strength (284 MPa for three times fired group), and hardness (164 HV for three times fired group) and significant (p < 0.001) increase in elongation value (28% for three times fired group) of Ni-Cr alloy. The microstructure of the control group specimen exhibited heterogeneous microstructure, and after each firing, microstructure of the alloy was gradually homogenized by formation of grain boundaries at the interdendritic interfaces. X-ray diffraction pattern shows that the alloy exhibited four strong diffraction peaks within the range of 2θ = 40° to 100°. After a third firing, intensity of these planes increased. CONCLUSIONS: Results of this study confirmed that nickel-based alloys become weaker after each firing process. After firing treatment, the microstructure of alloys showed decreased dendritic structure (i.e., homogenization, which was responsible for decrease in strength and an increase in ductility of the alloy); however, this decreased strength and hardness of Ni-Cr alloy after heat treatment was still superior to those of the most noble metal alloys used in dentistry. X-ray diffraction study showed that firing process led to relieving of stresses, which ultimately resulted in stability in the crystal structure of alloy.

This case report explores the innovative application of the endocrown technique for restoring a severely damaged mandibular molar (tooth #46) in a 28-year-old male patient. With a recent root canal treatment history, the patient presented with a dislodged prosthesis. Due to financial constraints, a base metal alloy was chosen for the endocrown restoration. The unique preparation process involved reducing the occlusal surface by 2 mm, creating a shoulder cervical margin, and preserving enamel walls. The endocrown, crafted from a base metal alloy, demonstrated a semi-conservative approach, providing cost-effectiveness and minimal tooth preparation. The case adheres to the 2013 CAse REport (CARE) guidelines. The discussion highlights the biomechanical benefits of the endocrown, emphasizing stress resistance, stability, and superior performance compared to traditional treatments. Materials like ceramic, resin nanoceramic, and polyetheretherketone are briefly discussed, focusing on the promising success rates of endocrowns, mainly through computer-aided designing/computer-aided manufacturing systems. The report provides valuable insights for clinicians considering this endocrown technique in reconstructing severely damaged molars and premolars.
