The retinoid X receptors (RXR) are ligand-activated transcription factors involved in multiple regulatory networks as universal heterodimer partners for nuclear receptors. Despite their high therapeutic potential in many pathologies, targeting of RXR has only been exploited in cancer treatment as the currently available RXR agonists suffer from exceptional lipophilicity, poor pharmacokinetics (PK), and adverse effects. Aiming to overcome the limitations and to provide improved RXR ligands, we developed a new potent RXR ligand chemotype based on the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug oxaprozin. Systematic structure-activity relationship analysis enabled structural optimization toward low nanomolar potency similar to the well-established rexinoids. Cocrystal structures of the most active derivatives demonstrated orthosteric binding, and in vivo profiling revealed superior PK properties compared to current RXR agonists. The optimized compounds were highly selective for RXR activation and induced RXR-regulated gene expression in native cellular and in vivo settings suggesting them as excellent chemical tools to further explore the therapeutic potential of RXR.

Commercially available cinchona alkaloids that can catalyze the enantiodivergent fluorination of β-ketodiarylphosphine oxides were developed to construct carbon-fluorine quaternary stereocenters. This protocol features a wide scope of substrates and excellent enantioselectivities, and it is scalable.

Herein, we report a direct method to synthesize 2-phenylacetophenone through a ruthenium(II)-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction between acyl and benzyl radical. The various derivatives of 2-phenylacetophenone were prepared easily in moderate to good yields. These reactions provide a straightforward pathway to synthesize a variety of ketones bearing various functional groups.

A diastereoselective copper and NHC-ligand-catalyzed three-component difunctionalization of allenes with bis(pinacolato)diboron and 2H-azirines to afford borylated allylaziridines is described. The reaction exhibits complete diastereoselectivity and good yields, and the further chlorination of the corresponding borylated products was also performed. It is believed that the high ring-strain force of 2H-azirines facilitates the reaction. More chemical transformations of borylated allylaziridines are also reported.

, p. 8444 - 8447 (2016/07/19)
A chemoselective C?O bond cleavage of the ester alkyl side-chain of α-acyloxy ketones was realized for the first time by a highly efficient palladium-catalyzed hydrogenolysis (S/C=6000, the highest catalytic efficiency by far). Furthermore, a kinetic resolution of α-acyloxy ketones was first developed by enantioselective hydrogenolysis with good yields and up to 99 % ee.

Oxygen? That's radical! A method for the direct synthesis of substituted alcohols, ketones, and diketones through a catalyst-controlled highly chemoselective coupling and oxygenation of olefins has been developed. The method is simple and practical, can be switched by the selection of different catalysts, and employs molecular oxygen as both an oxidant and a reagent. Copyright
Deoxybenzoins from Stille carbonylative cross-couplings using molybdenum hexacarbonyl

Stille-type carbonylative cross-couplings, employing palladium catalysis and Mo(CO)6 as the carbon monoxide carrier, were used for the preparation of deoxybenzoins. Straightforward transformations were conveniently performed in closed vessels at 100 °C, providing the products in good yields. Benzyl bromides and chlorides were used as coupling partners with aryl and heteroaryl stannanes. This mild three-component carbonylation employs the destabilizing agent DBU to promote smooth release of carbon monoxide from Mo(CO)6, which made this protocol operationally simple and minimized the formation of Stille diarylmethane products.
Effect of Ring Substitution on the Photochemistry of α-(Aryloxy)acetophenones
Netto-Ferreira, J.C.,Avellar, I.G.J.,Scaiano, J.C.
, p. 89 - 92 (2007/10/02)
The photochemistry of a series of 10 α-(aryloxy)acetophenones has been examined by quantum yield, product studies, and laser flash photolysis techniques.Triplet decay involves a competition of β-cleavage with intramolecular quenching by the β-aryl group, the latter being favored in all systems.Typical triplet lifetimes at room temperature range from 60 to 260 ps and are rather insensitive to the substitution pattern. β-Cleavage rate constants range between 1*107 and 3*109 s-1 and are strongly favored by electron releasing substituents, such as 4-methoxy.The determination of true quantum yields of β-cleavage requires the addition of thiophenol as a radical trap to prevent the efficient back reaction that takes place otherwise; under these conditions quantum yields range from 10-3 to 0.14, the highest value being obtained for the 4-methoxy and 4-hydroxy derivatives.
