Optically active α-aryloxycarboxylic acids and their derivatives are important functional molecules. Disclosed here is a carbene-catalyzed dynamic kinetic resolution and transesterification reaction for access to this class of molecules with up to 99% yields and 99:1 er values. Addition of a chiral carbene catalyst to the ester substrate leads to two diastereomeric azolium ester intermediates that can quickly epimerize to each other and thus allows for effective dynamic kinetic resolution to be realized. The optically enriched ester products from our reaction can be quickly transformed to chiral herbicides and other bioactive molecules.

A series of 2-(naphthalen-2-yloxy)propionic acid derivatives were prepared. The hypolipidemic activity of the new compounds as well as the intermediate acid 2 was evaluated in the high cholesterol diet (HCD) fed hyperlipidemic rat model. Interestingly, the S-alkylated mercaptotriazole 8b and the 1,3,4-oxadiazole 9 produced striking reduction of serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TGs) and low-density lipoproteins (LDLs) and elevation of serum high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) being more active than the reference gemfibrozil. In addition, the 1,2,4-triazole 7a, the hydroxypyrazoline 10 and the pyrazolone derivative 11 exhibited good hypolipidemic activity on different lipid parameters.

A new enzymatic method for the preparation of optically active α-substituted carboxylic acids is reported. This technique is called deracemization reaction, which provides us with a route to obtain the enantiomerically pure compounds, theoretically in 100% yield starting from the racemic mixture. This means that the synthesis of a racemate is almost equal to the synthesis of the optically active compound, and this concept is entirely different from the commonly accepted one in the asymmetric synthesis. Using the growing cell system of Nocardia diaphanozonaria JCM3208, racemates of 2-aryl- and 2-aryloxypropanoic acid are deracemized smoothly and (R)-form-enriched products are recovered in high chemical yield (>50%). In addition, using optically active starting compounds and deuterated derivatives as well as inhibitors, we have disclosed the fact that a new type of enzyme takes part in this biotransformation, and that the reaction proceeds probably via the same mechanism as that in rat liver.
