A simple method for the cleavage of methoxymethyl (MOM)-ether and ester derivatives using bismuth trichloride (BiCl3) is described. The alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, benzyl and anthracene MOM ether derivatives, as well as MOM esters of both aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids, were deprotected in good yields. To better understand the molecular roles of BiCl3and water for MOM cleavage, two possible binding pathways were investigated using the density functional theory (DFT) method. The theoretical results indicate the differential initial binding site preferences of phenolic and alcoholic MOM substrates to the Bi atom and suggest that water plays a key role in facilitating the cleavage of the MOM group.

Given the sudden and unexplained rise in the cost of (+)- A nd (-)-sparteine, an alternative method for the resolution of vaulted biaryls has been developed. This method involves the reaction of a racemic vaulted biaryl ligand with one equivalent of BH3·SMe2 and one equivalent of either quinine or quinidine. A precipitate then forms from the resulting mixture of diastereomeric borates as a result of differential solubilities. Hydrolysis of the precipitate then liberates the (S)-ligand in the case of quinine and the (R)-ligand in the case of quinidine, both with >99% ee. This method has been applied to 16 different vaulted biaryl ligands, including 10 whose preparation is described here for the first time. In addition, proof of principle has been demonstrated for the dynamic thermodynamic resolution of the vaulted biaryl ligands with this method in combination with a nonchiral copper(II) complex that can racemize the ligand.

A simple, efficient, cheap, and broadly applicable system for the carboxylation of benzylic bromides with carbon monoxide and water is reported. Upon simple reaction with only 2.5 wt % of Pearlman's catalyst and 10 mol % of tetrabutylammonium bromide in tetrahydrofuran at 110 °C for 4 h, a range of benzylic bromides can be smoothly converted to the corresponding arylacetic acids in good to excellent yields after simple extraction and acid-base wash. The reaction was found to be broadly applicable, scalable, and could be successfully extended to the use of ex situ-generated carbon monoxide and applied to the synthesis of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac.

Tandem Meinwald rearrangement and nucleophilic substitution of oxiranenitriles was realized. Arylacetic acid derivatives were readily synthesized from 3-aryloxirane-2-carbonitriles with amines, alcohols, or water in the presence of boron trifluoride under microwave irradiation, and the designed synthetic strategy includes introducing a cyano leaving group into arylepoxides and capturing the in situ generated toxic cyanide with boron trifluoride, making the reaction efficient, safe, and environmentally benign. The reaction occurs through an acid-promoted Meinwald rearrangement, producing arylacetyl cyanides, followed by an addition-elimination process with nitrogen or oxygen-containing nucleophilic amines, alcohols or water. The current method provides a new application of the tandem Meinwald rearrangement.

A variety of substituted 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were synthesised through microwave radiation heating. The method has characteristics of environmental friendliness, economy, simple separation, and purification process, less by-products and high reaction yield. Those 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were screened for antioxidant, α-glucosidase inhibitory and advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) formation inhibitory. Most compounds exhibited significant antioxidant and AGEs formation inhibitory activities. Anti-diabetic activity studies showed that compounds 11 and 17 were equipotent to the standard drug glibenclamide in vivo. According to the experimental results, the target compound 35 can be used as a lead compound for the development of new anti-diabetic drugs. The whole experiment showed that anti-diabetic activity is prevalent in 3-arylcoumarins, which added a new natural skeleton to the development of anti-diabetic active drugs.

Alzheimer's disease, a neurodegenerative illness, has the extremely complex pathogenesis. Accumulating evidence indicates there is a close relationship between several enzymes and Alzheimer's disease. Various substituted 3-arylcoumarin derivatives were synthesised, and their in vitro activity, including cholinesterase inhibitory activity, monoamine oxidase inhibitory activity, and antioxidant activity were investigated. Most of the compounds exhibited high activity; therefore 3-arylcoumarin compounds have the potential as drug candidates for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.

The first ruthenium-catalyzed umpolung carboxylation of hydrazones with CO2 to generate important aryl acetic acids is reported. Besides aldehyde hydrazones, a variety of ketone hydrazones, which have not been successfully applied in previous umpolung reactions with other reactive electrophiles, also show high reactivity and selectivity under mild conditions. Moreover, this operationally simple protocol features good functional group tolerance, is readily scalable, and offers easy derivation of important structures, including bioactive felbinac and adiphenine. Computational studies reveal that this umpolung reaction proceeds through the generation of a Ru-nitrenoid followed by concerted [4 + 2] cycloaddition with CO2.
