- Domino electrocyclization/azide-capture/Schmidt rearrangement of dienones: One-step synthesis of dihydropyridones from simple building blocks
-
Simple 1,4-dien-3-ones undergo Lewis acid-catalyzed Nazarov electrocyclization and intermolecular trapping by various azides to furnish 3,4-dihydropyridin-2-ones in moderate to good yields. The reaction is proposed to proceed via nucleophilic trapping of

- THERAPEUTIC AGENT FOR DIABETES
-
A therapeutic agent for diabetes, which comprises a compound of the formula [I] wherein Xis a group of the formula wherein R4and R5are the same or different and each is a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and the like, and R6is a hydrogen atom or an amino-protecting group; R1is an optionally substituted alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms, an optionally substituted alkenyl having 2 to 6 carbon atoms and the like, R2is a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and the like, R2' is a hydrogen atom, and R3is an optionally substituted alkyl having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and the like, a prodrug thereof, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, a hydrate thereof and a solvate thereof. The compound of the present invention shows superior blood sugar decreasing action on the state of hyperglycemia, but does not affect the blood sugar when it is in the normal range or in the hypoglycemic state, which means that it is free of serious side effects such as hypoglycemia. Therefore, the compound of the present invention is useful as a therapeutic drug for diabetes and also useful as a preventive of the chronic complications of diabetes.

- Novel access to neopentyl-type halogenated cyclopentanoids via olefinic cyclobutanols
-
The iodonium ion-mediated ring expansion of olefinic cyclobutanols 20, 21, and 25 gave mixtures of iodoalkylated cyclopentanones 33a-c and 34a-c. On the other hand, the same reaction of 29, 30, and 32 stereoselectively afforded iodoalkylated cyclopentanon
