The dearomatizing annulation reaction is a significant challenge in organic chemistry. The direct activation of α-carbons of simple saturated esters, as nucleophiles, is an important synthesis strategy. In the present study, we disclose [3 + 2] dearomatizing annulation reactions with direct activating α-carbons of saturated carboxylic esters and N-iminoisoquinolinium ylides, which possess highly enantioselective characteristics, catalyzed by N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). The protocol achieves isoquinoline dearomatization and the construction of tricyclic chiral products under mild conditions with good yield, substrate tolerance, and diastereoselectivity as well as excellent enantioselectivity.

A comparative study aiming at analysing the catalytic activity and stability of four related enzymes belonging to the HSL family in the presence of several water-miscible organic solvents was performed. The studied enzymes were four carboxylesterases: Psy

A series of structurally diverse chromogenic esters, including a new compound (4-nitrophenyl 2-methylpentanoate), has been synthesized, constituting an array of 17 substrates which could be applied to rapidly fingerprint the activity of lipases or esterases to reveal their substrates specificity and functional characteristics. Combined with genetic technology such as "data mining" and directed evolution, such fingerprints might be a promising platform for discovery of potentially useful enzymes in industrial application. The fingerprint of commercially available Lipase-B from Candida antarctica as a model enzyme was first measured to confirm the reliability of this method. Then three new enzymes mined from genomic libraries were successfully fingerprinted, revealing the functional characteristics of those enzymes. Among them, the enzyme SrfAD was founded with specific substrate preference towards cycloalkyl carboxylic esters and aromatic esters, making it more promising in synthetic utilities than other tested enzymes.
