A photochemical deracemization of 5-substituted 3-phenylimidazolidine-2,4-diones (hydantoins) is reported (27 examples, 69%-quant., 80–99% ee). The reaction is catalyzed by a chiral diarylketone which displays a two-point hydrogen bonding site. Mechanistic evidence (DFT calculations, radical clock experiments, H/D labeling) suggests the reaction to occur by selective hydrogen atom transfer (HAT). Upon hydrogen binding, one substrate enantiomer displays the hydrogen atom at the stereogenic center to the photoexcited catalyst allowing for a HAT from the substrate and eventually for its conversion into the product enantiomer. The product enantiomer is not processed by the catalyst and is thus enriched in the photostationary state.

Imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine derivatives were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as inhibitors of the apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1). These were based on a benzothiazole derivative that was discovered from high-throughput screening of our compound library. As a result, we identified potent, selective, and orally bioavailable ASK1 inhibitors for wide range of therapeutic targets.
