Page/Page column 18, (2010/06/22)
Provided herein are amides containing at least a four ring structure, which are inhibitors of diacylglycerol acyltransferase and are useful for the treatment of diseases such as, for example, obesity, type II diabetes mellitus and metabolic syndrome.

The asymmetric hydrogenation of α-amino-β-keto esters using ruthenium (Ru) anti-selectively proceeds via a dynamic kinetic resolution to afford anti-β-hydroxy-α-amino acids with high enantiomeric purities, which are important chiral building blocks for the synthesis of medicines and natural products. A mechanistic investigation has revealed that the Ru-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation takes place via the hydrogenation of the double bond in the enol tautomer of the substrate.
