Phenotypic screening of an annotated small molecule library identified the quinuclidine tetrahydroisoquinoline solifenacin (1) as a robust enhancer of progranulin secretion with single digit micromolar potency in a murine microglial (BV-2) cell line. Subsequent SAR development led to the identification of 29 with a 38-fold decrease in muscarinic receptor antagonist activity and a 10-fold improvement in BV-2 potency.

Convenient synthesis and useful application of a series of Josiphos-type binaphane ligands were described. The iridium complexes of these chiral diphosphines displayed excellent enantioselectivity and good reactivity in the asymmetric hydrogenation of challenging 1-aryl-substituted dihydroisoquinoline substrates (full conversions, up to >99% ee, 4000 TON). The use of 40% HBr (aqueous solution) as an additive dramatically improved the asymmetric induction of these catalysts. This transformation provided a highly efficient and enantioselective access to chiral 1-aryl-substituted tetrahydroisoquinolines, which were of great importance and common in natural products and biologically active molecules.
