The asymmetric bioreduction of α,β-unsaturated γ-keto esters using ene-reductases from the Old Yellow Enzyme family proceeds with excellent stereoselectivity and high conversion levels, covering a broad range of acyclic and cyclic derivatives. Various strategies were employed to provide access to both enantiomers, which are versatile precursors of bioactive molecules. The regioselectivity of hydride addition on di-activated alkenes was elucidated by isotopic labeling experiments and showed strong preference for the keto moiety as activating/binding group as opposed to the ester. Finally, chemoenzymatic synthesis of (R)-2-(2-oxocyclohexyl)acetic acid was achieved in high ee on a preparative scale combining enzymatic reduction followed by ester hydrogenolysis.

A three-step biocatalytic procedure is described for the conversion of methyl and ethyl cyclopentene- and cyclohexenecarboxylates into both the enantiomers of the corresponding chiral 3-oxoesters, which are useful building blocks for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients. The allylic hydroxylation of the starting cycloalkenecarboxylates is carried out by using R. oryzae resting cells entrapped in alginate beads, in acetate buffer solution at 25 °C. The oxidation of the intermediate allylic alcohols to unsaturated ketones, performed by the laccase/TEMPO system, and the ene-reductase mediated hydrogenation of the alkene bond were carried out in the same reaction vessel in a sequential mode at 30 °C. Being entirely biocatalytic, our multistep procedure provides considerable advantages in terms of selectivity and environmental impact over reported chemical methods.
Molecular Hybridization of Potent and Selective γ-Hydroxybutyric Acid (GHB) Ligands: Design, Synthesis, Binding Studies, and Molecular Modeling of Novel 3-Hydroxycyclopent-1-enecarboxylic Acid (HOCPCA) and trans-γ-Hydroxycrotonic Acid (T-HCA) Analogs

γ-Hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) is a neuroactive substance with specific high-affinity binding sites. To facilitate target identification and ligand optimization, we herein report a comprehensive structure-affinity relationship study for novel ligands targeting these binding sites. A molecular hybridization strategy was used based on the conformationally restricted 3-hydroxycyclopent-1-enecarboxylic acid (HOCPCA) and the linear GHB analog trans-4-hydroxycrotonic acid (T-HCA). In general, all structural modifications performed on HOCPCA led to reduced affinity. In contrast, introduction of diaromatic substituents into the 4-position of T-HCA led to high-affinity analogs (medium nanomolar Ki) for the GHB high-affinity binding sites as the most high-affinity analogs reported to date. The SAR data formed the basis for a three-dimensional pharmacophore model for GHB ligands, which identified molecular features important for high-affinity binding, with high predictive validity. These findings will be valuable in the further processes of both target characterization and ligand identification for the high-affinity GHB binding sites.

The total synthesis of Δ12-prostaglandin J3(Δ12-PGJ3, 1), a reported leukemia stem cell ablator, through a number of strategies and tactics is described. The signature cross-conjugated dienone structural motif of 1 was forged by an aldol reaction/dehydration sequence from key building blocks enone 13 and aldehyde 14, whose lone stereocenters were generated by an asymmetric Tsuji–Trost reaction and an asymmetric Mukaiyama aldol reaction, respectively. During this program, a substituent-governed regioselectivity pattern for the Rh-catalyzed C?H functionalization of cyclopentenes and related olefins was discovered. The evolution of the synthesis of 1 from the original strategy to the final streamlined process proceeded through improvements in the construction of both fragments 13 and 14, exploration of the chemistry of the hitherto underutilized chiral lactone synthon 57, and a diastereoselective alkylation of a cyclopentenone intermediate. The described chemistry sets the stage for large-scale production of Δ12-PGJ3and designed analogues for further biological and pharmacological studies.
Allylic Oxidations Catalyzed by Dirhodium Catalysts under Aqueous Conditions

The present invention relates to compositions and methods for achieving the efficient allylic oxidation of organic molecules, especially olefins and steroids, under aqueous conditions. The invention concerns the use of dirhodium (II,II) “paddlewheel complexes, and in particular, dirhodium carboximate and tert-butyl hydroperoxide as catalysts for the reaction. The use of aqueous conditions is particularly advantageous in the allylic oxidation of 7-keto steroids, which could not be effectively oxidized using anhydrous methods, and in extending allylic oxidation to enamides and enol ethers.

A new dirhodium tetraacetate II involving 1,3-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)-imidazol-2-ylidene I was synthesized and characterized by general spectroscopic tools in the solution state as well as single X-ray crystallographic analysis in the solid state. The catalytic activity of dirhodium tetraacetate carbenoid II was tested for the allylic oxidation, and the improved reactivity to the allylic oxidation was observed compared to that of Rh2(OAc)4. The different electrochemical properties of dirhodium tetraacetate carbenoid II and Rh2(OAc)4 were compared via cyclic voltammetry.
