In presence of bismuth(III) triflate, a carbonylated electrophile (ethyl mesoxalate or glyoxylate) and usual diene led selectively (60-100) the hetero carbonyl-Diels-Alder reaction with the ene reaction product. Bi(OTf)3 exhibits strong catalytic activity and reacts under mild conditions.

Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) is the enzyme largely responsible for intracellular cholesteror esterification. A systemic inhibitor of ACAT is believed to be able to slow or even reverse the atherosclerotic process. Towards that goal, a series of cyclic sulfides, derived from the hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of thioaldehydes with 1,3-dienes, and bearing carboxamide substituents, were prepared and evaluated for in vitro (in several tissues and species) and ex vivo ACAT inhibition. Minor changes in subsequent structure were found to have a significant effect in optimization of the biological activity of this series of compounds.
