A Ru single-atom (Ru SA) catalyst supported on activated carbon was adopted to synthesize 3-pentanone with 83.3% selectivity via heterogeneous ethylene hydroformylation, while 52.1% ethane selectivity was obtained for Ru nanoparticles (Ru NPs).
The nature of the MoH···I bond in Cp 2 Mo(L)H···I‐C≡C‐R (L= H, CN, PPh 2 , C(CH 3 ) 3 ; R=NO 2 , Cl, Br, H, OH, CH 3 , NH 2 ) was investigated using electrostatic potential analysis, topological analysis of the electron density, energy decomposition analysis and natural bond orbital analysis. The calculated results show that MoH···I interactions in the title complexes belong to halogen‐hydride bond, which is similar to halogen bonds, not hydrogen bonds. Different to the classical halogen bonds, the directionality of MoH···I bond is low; Although electrostatic interaction is dorminant, the orbital interactions also play important roles in this kind of halogen bond, and steric interactions are weak; the strength of H···I bond can tuned by the most positive electrostatic potential of the I atom. As the electron‐withdrawing ability of the R substituent in the alkyne increases, the electrostatic potential maximum of the I atom increases, which enhances the strength of the H···I halogen bond, as well as the electron transfer.
A series of oxazolidinones were synthesized and evaluated as antibacterial agents. They were screened in vitro against a panel of Gram-positive organisms. Compound 9a was found to exhibit activity comparable to linezolid.
