A novel method has been developed for the asymmetric cyclization of alkyl aryl ethers. The reactions were assumed to proceed via short-lived chiral enolate intermediates with a chiral C-O axis to give cyclic ethers with tetrasubstituted carbon in up to 99% ee. The half-life of racemization of the chiral enolate intermediate was roughly estimated to be ~1 s at -78 C.

The invention provides methods for treating an individual having a retinoid responsive disorder. In one embodiment, a method involves administering to the individual an effective amount of a selective CYP26B inhibitor, the selective CYP26B inhibitor having at least 10-fold selectivity for CYP26B relative to CYP26A. In another embodiment, a method involves administering to the individual an effective amount of a selective CYP26A inhibitor, the selective CYP26A inhibitor having a chemical formula set forth in the specification. The invention further provides screening methods for identifying a selective CYP26A inhibitor or selective CYP26B inhibitor.
