Divergent Diels-Alder methodology from methyl coumalate toward functionalized aromatics

An inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder reaction between methyl coumalate and electron-rich dienophiles produces substituted benzoates. A high-yielding, single-pot procedure transforms readily accessible vinyl ether, ketal, or orthoester dienophiles into functionalized aromatic systems in a versatile route.

Design, synthesis and identification of novel colchicine-derived immunosuppressant

Synthesis and biological evaluation of various colchicine analogues through the mixed-lymphocyte reaction (MLR), lymphoproliferation, and inhibitory effects on the inflammatory genes are described. In addition, a new series of immunosuppressive agents developed on the structural basis of colchicine, as well as their structure-activity relationships is reported. The most potent analogue 20a exhibited an excellent immunosuppressive activity on in vivo skin-allograft model, which is comparable to that of cyclosporin A.
