Claisen rearrangement is used as the standard methods for the generation of complex organic substance. It is one of the well-known methods for the introduction of carbon-carbon bond. We have developed a protocol using allyl aryl ether as a substrate and AlCl3-KI as a mild reagent system and acetonitrile (CH3CN) is taken as solvent at ambient temperature. The reagent system presented in this current work is found to be appropriate for Claisen rearrangement of several aromatic alcohols with excellent yields.

A known natural product, magnaldehyde B, was identified as an agonist of retinoid X receptor (RXR) α. Magnaldehyde B was isolated from Magnolia obovata (Magnoliaceae) and synthesized along with more potent analogs for screening of their RXRα agonistic activities. Structural optimization of magnaldehyde B resulted in the development of a candidate molecule that displayed a 440-fold increase in potency. Receptor-ligand docking simulations indicated that this molecule has the highest affinity with the ligand binding domain of RXRα among the analogs synthesized in this study. Furthermore, the selective activation of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) δ-RXR heterodimer with a stronger efficacy compared to those of PPARα-RXR and PPARγ-RXR was achieved in luciferase reporter assays using the PPAR response element driven reporter (PPRE-Luc). The PPARδactivity of the molecule was significantly inhibited by the antagonists of both RXR and PPARδ, whereas the activity of GW501516 was not affected by the RXR antagonist. Furthermore, the molecule exhibited a particularly weak PPARδagonistic activity in reporter gene assays using the Gal4 hybrid system. The obtained data therefore suggest that the weak PPARδagonistic activity of the optimized molecule is synergistically enhanced by its own RXR agonistic activity, indicating the potent agonistic activity of the PPARδ-RXR heterodimer.

A palladium-catalyzed fluoroalkylative cyclization of olefins with readily available Rf-I reagents to afford the corresponding fluoroalkylated 2,3-dihydrobenzofuran and indolin derivatives with moderate to excellent yields is reported. This novel procedure provides an efficient method for the construction of Csp3-CF2 and C-O/N bonds in one step. A wide range of functional groups are tolerated. It is proposed that a radical/SET (single electron transfer) pathway proceeding via the fluoroalkyl radical may be involved in the catalytic cycle.
