Highly enantioselective tandem hydrogenation/lactonization of various 2-acylarylcarboxylates including 2-aroylarylcarboxylates were realized by using [RuCl(benzene)(S)-SunPhos]Cl as the catalyst under mild reaction conditions. Excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99.6 % ee) and activities (S/C=1000) were obtained. This convenient and practical method enables a direct access to a series of highly optically pure 3-substituted phthalides that are very important molecules as valuable pharmacological compounds and diversified synthons for medicinal chemistry. Moreover, a gram-scale reaction was performed to further demonstrate the practicality of this approach.

A thorough mechanistic study on cobalt-catalysed direct methoxycarbonylation reactions of chlorobenzenes in the presence of methyl oxirane on a wide range of substrates, including poly-and monochloro derivatives with multiple substituents, is reported. The results demonstrate that the reaction is potentially useful as it proceeds under very mild conditions (t = 62 °C, PCO = 1 bar) and converts aryl chlorides to far more valuable products (especially ortho-substituted benzoic acids and esters) in high yields. This transformation also offers another opportunity for the utilization of environmentally harmful polychlorinated benzenes and biphenyls (PCBs). This study is the first to discover an unexpected universal positive ortho-effect: the proximity of any substituent (including Me, Ph, and MeO groups and halogen atoms) to the reaction centre accelerates the methoxycarbonylation in chlorobenzenes. The effect of the ortho-substituents is discussed in detail and explained in terms of a radical anion reaction mechanism. The advantages of the methoxycarbonylation as a model for the mechanistic study of radical anion reactions are also illustrated.

The bradykinin B1 receptor is rapidly induced upon tissue injury and inflammation, stimulating the production of inflammatory mediators resulting in plasma extravasation, leukocyte trafficking, edema, and pain. We have previously reported on sulfonamide and sulfone-based B1 antagonists containing a privileged bicyclic amine moiety leading to potent series of 2-oxopiperazines. The suboptimal pharmacokinetics and physicochemical properties of the oxopiperazine sulfonamides led us to seek B1 antagonists with improved druglike properties. Using a pharmacophore model containing a bicyclic amine as anchor, we designed a series of amide antagonists with targeted physicochemical properties. This approach led to a novel series of potent phthalazinone B1 antagonists, where we successfully replaced a sulfonamide acceptor with a cyclic carbonyl unit. SAR studies revealed compounds with subnanomolar B1 binding affinity. These compounds demonstrate excellent cross-species PK properties with high oral bioavailability and potent activity in a rabbit biochemical challenge pharmacodynamic study.
