Preparation of dopaminergic N-alkyl-benzyltetrahydroisoquinolines using a 'one-pot' procedure in acid medium.
2000
The preparation of N-methyl-BTHIQ (4) from N-phenylethyl-phenacetamide (1) by cyclization, reduction and N-alkylation in acid medium has been achieved in good yield in a 'one-pot' procedure. Acylation of imine (2) intermediate afforded the Z and E stereoselectivity in the enamide formation. 6-Hydroxy-BTHIQ (7) shows selectivity for D2 dopamine receptors, while its N-methylated homologue (8) displays higher affinities for both D1 and D2 receptor types, with an unexpected increase in D1 dopamine receptor affinity.
Tumor-initiating activity of the (+)-(S,S)- and (−)-(R,R)-enantiomers of trans-11,12-dihydroxy-11,12-dihydrodibenzo[a,l]pyrene in mouse skin
1999
Abstract A single administration of enantiomerically pure 11,12-dihydrodiols of dibenzo[ a,l ]pyrene (DB[ a,l ]P) on the back of NMRI mice and subsequent chronic treatment with 12- O -tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) (initiation/promotion assay) revealed strikingly different carcinogenic activities of both enantiomers. Tumor-initiating activity of (−)-(11 R ,12 R )-DB[ a,l ]P-dihydrodiol, which is the metabolic precursor of the (−)- anti -(11 R ,12 S )-dihydrodiol (13 S ,14 R )-epoxide, was exceptionally higher than the corresponding effect of (+)-(11 S ,12 S )-DB[ a,l ]P-dihydrodiol, the metabolic precursor of (+)- syn -(11 S ,12 R )-dihydrodiol (13 S ,14 R )-epoxide. After topical ap…
Detoxification of optically active bay- and fjord-region polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon dihydrodiol epoxides by human glutathione transferase P1-1 e…
1998
Dihydrodiol epoxides (DEs) are important carcinogenic metabolites of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The metabolic formation of four stereoisomeric DEs (a pair of optically active diastereomers termed as syn- and anti-form) is possible. Glutathione tranferases (GSTs) have been demonstrated to catalyze the detoxification of DEs. Purified GSTs display remarkable differences in catalytic efficiencies towards bay- and fjord-region DEs along with a high degree of regio- and stereoselectivity. Here we determined to which extent heterologously expressed human GSTP1-1, a major GST isoform in lung, affects the mutagenicity of stereoisomeric bay-region DEs of benzo[a]pyrene in Chinese hamste…
Stereoselective construction of the tetracyclic scalarane skeleton from carvone

ChemInform Abstract: Gold Catalyzed Stereoselective Tandem Hydroamination-Formal Aza-Diels-Alder Reaction of Propargylic Amino Esters.
2013
The overall sequence of the tandem reaction presented here leads to nitrogen-containing tetracycles under formation of 4 bonds and five stereocenters, in most cases as single diastereoisomers.

2013
The stereoselective synthesis of P-chirogenic phosphines bearing an o-hydroxyalkyl chain is described.
Stereoselective syntheses of piperidinones and their modification by organometallic coupling reactions
2007
Dehydropiperidinones stereoselectively obtained from N-arabinosyl imines were iodinated at the enaminone structure. Knochel iodine-magnesium exchange afforded Grignard compounds of these piperidinone derivatives which reacted, either directly or after transmetalation to zinc or copper intermediates, with alkyl-, aryl- or acylhalides to give correspondingly substituted piperidinones. Stereoselective conjugate allyl cuprate addition to a thus obtained 5-allyl dehydropiperidinone and ring-closing metathesis of the product gave a hydroquinolinone containing three stereogenic centers.
Enhanced Activity and Stereoselectivity of Polystyrene-Supported Proline-Based Organic Catalysts for Direct Asymmetric Aldol Reaction in Water
2009
Several polystyrene-supported proline dipeptides and a prolinamide derivative were prepared by thiol–ene coupling. These materials were used as catalysts for the direct asymmetric aldol reaction in water, and results compared with unsupported catalysts in water. Such an approach gave more active or stereoselective catalysts compared to the unsupported compounds, showing that our immobilization procedure may be useful to develop catalytic materials with enhanced performance. Moreover, these catalysts can be recovered and reused for at least nine times without loss of activity or can be easily regenerated when their activity has decreased. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Stereoselective Synthesis of Bromopiperidinones and their Conversion to Annulated Heterocycles
2009
N-Galactopyranosyl- and N-glucopyranosyl imines of aliphatic, aromatic and heteroaromatic aldehydes react with 1-methoxy-3-trimethylsilyloxy-1,3-butadiene in a domino Mannich-Michael reaction cascade to give 2-substituted 5,6-dehydro-piperidin-4-ones with high diastereoselectivity. Treatment of these cyclic enaminones with N-bromo-succinimide yields the corresponding 2-substituted 5-bromo-5,6-dehydropiperidinones which react with L-SelectrideⓇ or methylcuprate to afford the saturated bromo-piperidinones with high diastereoselectivity. Condensation reactions of these products with thioamides afford thiazolopiperidines
Enantioselective Synthesis of P-Chirogenic Phosphorus Compounds via the Ephedrine-Borane Complex Methodology
2008
The stereoselective synthesis of P-chirogenic organophosphorus compounds using the versatile ephedrine-methodology is reported. The principle of the method is based on the diastereoselective preparation of 1,3,2-oxazaphospholidine borane 3 from ephedrine 2 and regio- and stereoselective ring-opening of the heterocycle leading to an aminophosphine borane 4. Finally, these ring-opening products 4 are easily transformed into P-chirogenic organophosphorus compounds, by subsequent highly stereoselective reactions involving electrophilic or nucleophilic strategies.
