, p. 2893 - 2895 (2010)
Catalytic reduction of α-substituted acetophenones under conditions involving asymmetric transfer hydrogenation in water is described. The reaction is conducted in water and open to air, and formic acid is used as reductant.

A new transformation pattern for enantioselective intramolecular hydroacylation has been developed involving an alkene isomerization strategy. Proceeding through a five-membered rhodacycle intermediate, 3-enals were converted to C3- or C3,C5-chirogenic cyclopentanones with satisfactory yields, diastereoselectivities, and enantioselectivities. A catalytic cycle has been theoretically calculated and the origin of the stereoselection is rationally explained.

An efficient new synthesis of 3,5-bis(het)arylisoxazoles, involving the reaction of 1,3-bis(het)arylmonothio-1,3-diketones with sodium azide in the presence of IBX catalyst, has been reported. The reaction proceeds at room temperature in high yields and is applicable to a broad range of substrates including the synthesis of 5-methyl-3-arylisoxazoles, a key subunit present in several β-lactamase-resistant antibiotics. A probable mechanism for the formation of isoxazoles has been suggested. A few of the 5-styryl/arylbutadienyl-3-(het)arylisoxazoles have also been synthesized by reacting the corresponding 1-(het)aryl-1-(methylthio)-4-(het)arylidene-but-1-en-3-ones with sodium azide at higher temperatures. The reaction of β-ketodithioesters with sodium azide is shown to furnish β-ketonitriles in good yields.
