The self-assembly propensities and nonlinear optical properties of synthetic dipeptides are illustrated. The single crystal X-ray diffraction study of dipeptide 1 containing a p-nitrophenylalanine moiety reveals that the peptide adopts a supramolecular antiparallel β-sheet structure using hydrogen bonding, as well as π-π stacking interactions, in the solid state and the peptide exhibits nonlocal thermal nonlinear refraction due to the thermal lensing effect. The heat dissipation in the dipeptide 1 was a slow process with a millisecond to microsecond time scale. However the peptide 2 containing a p-nitrophenylacetic acid moiety adopts a parallel β-sheet structure and has no thermal lensing effect.
Synthesis and application of peripherally alkyl-functionalized dendritic pyrphos ligands: Homogeneous-supported catalysts for enantioselective hydrogenation
Yi, Bing,He, Hua-Ping,Fan, Qing-Hua
experimental part, p. 82 - 85 (2010/04/25)
A new series of dendritic ligands with a chiral diphosphine located at the focal point have been synthesized through coupling of (R,R)-3,4-bis(biphenylphosphino)pyrrolidine (pyrphos) with peripherally alkyl-functionalized benzoic acid dendrons. These ligands were employed in the Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of prochiral dehydroamino acids, exhibiting excellent catalytic activities and enantioselectivities. The second-generation dendritic catalyst could be recovered by simple liquid-liquid biphasic separation and reused four times without serious loss of its activity and selectivity.

A novel approach to the intracellular delivery of aryl phosphates has been developed that utilizes a phosphoramidate-based prodrug approach. The prodrugs contain an ester group that undergoes reductive activation intracellularly with concomitant expulsion
A comparison of the asymmetric hydrogenation catalyzed by rhodium complexes containing chiral ligands with a binaphthyl unit and those with a 5,5′,6,6′,7,7′,8,8′-octahydro-binaphthyl unit

The chiral ligands H8-BINAPO and H8-BDPAB were synthesized by reacting chlorodiphenylphosphine with H8-BINOL and H8-BINAM, respectively. Applications of these ligands in the Rh-catalyzed enantioselective hydrogenation of a variety of (Z)-acetamido-3-arylacrylic acid methyl esters provided chiral amino acid derivatives with good to excellent enantioselectivities (H8-BINAPO: up to 84.0% e.e.; H8-BDPAB: up to 97.1% e.e.). In the hydrogenation of acetamidoacrylic acid, 99% e.e. was obtained when a [Rh(H8-BDPAB)]+ catalyst was used. The catalytic activities and enantioselectivities of [Rh(H8-BINAPO)]+ and [Rh(H8-BDPAB]+ are substantially better than those obtained with the corresponding rhodium catalysts containing BINAPO (up to 64% e.e.) and BDPAB (up to 92.6% e.e.).

-
, (2008/06/13)
A process for preparing an enantiomeric form of 2-amino-3-(4-alkylaminophenyl)-propanoic acid of formula (I) or a salt thereof: STR1 in which Alk represents an alkyl radical containing 1 to 2 carbon atoms, from (L)-phenylalanine to obtain the (S)-enantiomer of 2-amino-3-(4-alkylaminophenyl)-propanoic acid, or from (D)-phenylalanine to obtain the (R)-enantiomer of 2-amino-3-(4-alkylaminophenyl)propanoic acid.
Acylase I catalysed hydrolysis of para-substituted (S)-phenylalanine derivatives from mixtures of the racemic ortho- and para-substituted isomers

, p. 5269 - 5272 (2007/10/03)
para-Substituted (S)-phenylalanines may be obtained by treatment of the corresponding mixtures of ortho- and para-substituted N-acetyl-(RS)- phenylalanines with Acylase I from porcine kidney. The selectivity of the enzyme may be attributed to its evolution to digest peptide derivatives of (S)-phenylalanine and (S)-tyrosine.
