The light-matter interaction between plasmonic nanocavity and exciton at the sub-diffraction limit is a central research field in nanophotonics. Here, we demonstrated the vertical distribution of the light-matter interactions at ~1 nm spatial resolution by coupling A excitons of MoS2 and gap-mode plasmonic nanocavities. Moreover, we observed the significant photoluminescence (PL) enhancement factor reaching up to 2800 times, which is attributed to the Purcell effect and large local density of states in gap-mode plasmonic nanocavities. Meanwhile, the theoretical calculations are well reproduced and support the experimental results.
A catalytic reductive addition of isocyanoacetates to tertiary lactams/amides has been developed. This one-pot procedure involves Ir-catalysed partial reduction of lactams/amides and sequential chemoselective addition of isocyanide group in isocyanoacetates and produces 5-methoxyoxazoles in moderate to excellent yields.
Versatile and chemoselective C-C bond forming methods for the one-pot transformation of amides into other classes of compounds are highly demanding. In this report, we demonstrate the reductive addition of isocyanoacetates to common amides and lactams to produce 5-methoxyoxazoles or bicyclic imidazolines. This one-pot procedure involves partial reduction of amides with Schwartz reagent and chemoselective addition of the carbon of isocyanide group or α-carbon in isocyanoacetates. The quite different reactivity of the isocyanoacetate is due to the different steric hindrance of the amides and lactams.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
