The asymmetric hydrogenation of a series of quinolines substituted by a variety of functionalized groups linked to the C2 carbon atom is providing access to optically enriched 2-functionalized 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines in the presence of in situ generated catalysts from [Ir(cod)Cl]2, a bisphosphine, and iodine. The enantioselectivity levels were as high as 96% ee.

Herein, we report a mild and efficient hydroxymethylation of quinolinesviaan iron promoted cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction under external acid free conditions. Various hydroxyalkyl substituted quinolines were achieved in excellent yields with well tolerated functional groups. Importantly, a few of the hydroxylmethylated quinolines were further transformed into respective aldehydes, and were successfully utilized for the synthesis of alkaloid arsindoline-A and its derivatives.

G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the molecular target of 40% of marketed drugs and the most investigated structures to develop novel therapeutics. Different members of the GPCRs superfamily can modulate the same cellular process acting on diverse pathways, thus representing an attractive opportunity to achieve multitarget drugs with synergic pharmacological effects. Here, we present a series of compounds with dual activity toward cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1 (CysLT1R) and G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor 1 (GPBAR1). They are derivatives of REV5901-the first reported dual compound-with therapeutic potential in the treatment of colitis and other inflammatory processes. We report the binding mode of the most active compounds in the two GPCRs, revealing unprecedented structural basis for future drug design studies, including the presence of a polar group opportunely spaced from an aromatic ring in the ligand to interact with Arg792.60 of CysLT1R and achieve dual activity.
Biocatalytic reduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to allylic alcohols

We have developed robust in vivo and in vitro biocatalytic systems that enable reduction of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to allylic alcohols and their saturated analogues. These compounds are prevalent scaffolds in many industrial chemicals and pharmaceuticals. A substrate profiling study of a carboxylic acid reductase (CAR) investigating unexplored substrate space, such as benzo-fused (hetero)aromatic carboxylic acids and α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids, revealed broad substrate tolerance and provided information on the reactivity patterns of these substrates. E. coli cells expressing a heterologous CAR were employed as a multi-step hydrogenation catalyst to convert a variety of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids to the corresponding saturated primary alcohols, affording up to >99percent conversion. This was supported by the broad substrate scope of E. coli endogenous alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), as well as the unexpected CC bond reducing activity of E. coli cells. In addition, a broad range of benzofused (hetero)aromatic carboxylic acids were converted to the corresponding primary alcohols by the recombinant E. coli cells. An alternative one-pot in vitro two-enzyme system, consisting of CAR and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH), demonstrates promiscuous carbonyl reductase activity of GDH towards a wide range of unsaturated aldehydes. Hence, coupling CAR with a GDH-driven NADP(H) recycling system provides access to a variety of (hetero)aromatic primary alcohols and allylic alcohols from the parent carboxylates, in up to >99percent conversion. To demonstrate the applicability of these systems in preparative synthesis, we performed 100 mg scale biotransformations for the preparation of indole-3-aldehyde and 3-(naphthalen-1-yl)propan-1-ol using the whole-cell system, and cinnamyl alcohol using the in vitro system, affording up to 85percent isolated yield.
