The disclosure provides therapeutic compositions (i.e., therapeutic agents) and methods of preventing or treating Friedreich's ataxia in a mammalian subject, reducing risk factors, signs and/or symptoms associated with Friedreich's ataxia (e.g. Complex I deficiency), and/or reducing the likelihood or severity of Friedreich's ataxia. The disclosure further provides novel intermediates for the production of said therapeutic compositions and related reduced versions of said therapeutic compositions, which reduce forms may also be used as therapeutic agents (or prodrugs of the therapeutic agent(s)).
Enantioselective Halo-oxy- and Halo-azacyclizations Induced by Chiral Amidophosphate Catalysts and Halo-Lewis Acids

Catalytic enantioselective halocyclization of 2-alkenylphenols and enamides have been achieved through the use of chiral amidophosphate catalysts and halo-Lewis acids. Density functional theory calculations suggested that the Lewis basicity of the catalyst played an important role in the reactivity and enantioselectivity. The resulting chiral halogenated chromans can be transformed to α-Tocopherol, α-Tocotrienol, Daedalin A and Englitazone in short steps. Furthermore, a halogenated product with an unsaturated side chain may provide polycyclic adducts under radical cyclization conditions.

A simple one-dimensional 13C NMR method is presented to discriminate between stereoisomers of organic compounds with more than one chiral center. By means of this method it is possible to discriminate between all eight stereoisomers of α-tocopherol. To achieve this the chiral solvating agent (S)-(+)-1-(9-anthryl)-2,2,2-trifluoroethanol and the compound of interest were dissolved in high concentrations in chloroform-d, and the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum was recorded at a low temperature. The individual stereoisomers of α-tocopherol were assigned by spikes of the reference compounds. The method was also applied to six other representative examples.
Chemoenzymatic synthesis of both enantiomers of α-tocotrienol

The stereoselective acylation of the achiral chromanedimethanol derivative 1 by vinyl acetate in the presence of Candida antarctica lipase B gave the (S)-monoester 2 in high enantiomeric purity (ee ≥ 98%). Enzymatic hydrolysis of diesters of compound 1 failed to give (R)-monoester 2 in good yield and high ee. Thus, both enantiomers of α-tocotrienol were synthesized from the (S)-monoester 2.
