RESUMO
Metal migration through a carbon chain is a versatile method for achieving remote functionalization. However, almost all known examples involve the overall net migration of alkylmetal species. Here, we report that allylrhodium species obtained from hydrorhodation of 1,3-dienes undergo chain walking toward esters, amides, or (hetero)arenes over distances of up to eight methylene units. The final, more highly conjugated allylrhodium species undergo nucleophilic allylation with aldehydes and with an imine to give Z-homoallylic alcohols and amines, respectively.
RESUMO
Redox-active molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles selective for glyphosate, MIP-Gly NPs, were devised, synthesized, and subsequently integrated onto platinum screen-printed electrodes (Pt-SPEs) to fabricate a chemosensor for selective determination of glyphosate (Gly) without the need for redox probe in the test solution. That was because, ferrocenylmethyl methacrylate was added to the polymerization mixtures during the NPs synthesis so that the resulting MIP-Gly NPs contained covalently immobilized ferrocenyl moieties as the reporting redox ingredient, conferring these NPs with electroactive properties. MIP-Gly NPs of four different compositions were evaluated. The herein described approach represents a simple and effective way to endow MIP NPs with electrochemical reporting capabilities with neither the need to functionalize them post-synthesis nor to use electrochemical mediators present in the tested solution during the analyte determinations. MIP-Gly NPs synthesized using allylamine and squaramide-based monomers appeared most selective to Gly. The Pt-SPEs modified with MIP-Gly NPs were characterized with differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Changes in the DPV peak originating from the oxidation of the ferrocenyl moieties in these MIP-Gly NPs served as the analytical signal. The DPV limit of detection and the linear dynamic concentration range for Gly were 3.7 pM and 25 pM-500 pM, respectively. Moreover, the selectivity of the fabricated chemosensors was sufficiently high to determine Gly successfully in spiked river water samples.

The enantioselective synthesis of densely functionalized polycarbocycles by the rhodium(i)-catalyzed reaction of arylboronic acids with 1,3-diketones is described. The key step in these desymmetrizing domino addition-cyclization reactions is an alkenyl-to-aryl 1,4-Rh(i) migration, which enables arylboronic acids to function effectively as 1,2-dimetalloarene surrogates.
