This article discusses the development of a simplified protocol for the large-scale preparation of 4CzIPN and 3DPA2FBN, two photocatalysts used in organic synthesis. The traditional methods for synthesizing these photocatalysts have been expensive and impractical for large-scale production. The authors of this study optimized the original protocol, using a base and a solvent switch to improve efficiency and simplify the process. The resulting protocol allows for the production of 4CzIPN and 3DPA2FBN on a large scale, making them more accessible for use in the pharmaceutical industry. The article also includes information on the crystal structure of 4CzIPN and the synthesis of 3DPA2FBN. Overall, this research provides a valuable contribution to the field of photocatalysis and offers potential applications for these photocatalysts in academia and industry.

An improved chemical process has been developed for the synthesis of (S , S)-DACH-Ph Trost ligand. The amidation of 2-diphenylphosphinylbenzoic acid and (S , S)-diaminocyclohexane is promoted by stoichiometric CDI and catalytic imidazole hydrochloride. The resulting product, (S , S)-DACH-Ph Trost ligand, is isolated as a white solid in 80% yield with >99% ee by simple filtration without column chromatography. The current facile process is also demonstrated on kilogram scale. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
