C=N-containing azaarenes as activating groups in enantioselective catalysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Nitrogen-containing aromatic heterocycles (azaarenes) are of widespread chemical significance, and chi-ral compounds containing azaarenes feature prominently in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and natural products.

Substrate Walking for Selective Ene Reduction

open access: yesChemCatChem, Volume 18, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
Ene‐reductases (EREDs) efficiently reduce activated C═C bonds. Expanding the current application, they catalyze the selective reduction of highly substituted cyclohexenones. Immobilized, they were scaled to 200 mL, achieving full substrate conversion without enzyme degradation. ABSTRACT Ene‐reductases (EREDs) efficiently reduce activated C═C bonds, but

Amino-Catalyzed Reactions of Aldehydes with Chiral Nitroalkenes

open access: yesOrganic Letters, 2021
Chiral nitroalkenes are used for the first time in Michael additions of aldehydes, catalyzed by pyrrolidine derivatives. They yield the same major stereoisomer with either (S)-proline or (R)-proline, but this asymmetric induction does not overcome the effect of sterically more congested catalysts.

Stereoselective Chemoenzymatic Synthesis Metaraminol Involving Gold‐Catalysed Alkyne Hydration and Carbonyl Biotransamination

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, Volume 29, Issue 16, 25 April 2026.
A chemoenzymatic synthesis of (1R,2S)‐metaraminol was developed by combining gold(I)‐catalysed alkyne hydration and stereoselective biotransamination in a sequential one‐pot process. Various phenol protection strategies were considered in oxidation‐reduction sequences, providing access to enantiopure propargylic alcohols as starting materials for ...

Investigations towards the stereoselective organocatalyzed Michael addition of dimethyl malonate to a racemic nitroalkene: possible route to the 4-methylpregabalin core structure

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018
Chiral derivatives of γ-aminobutyric acid are widely used as medicines and can be obtained by organocatalytic Michael additions. We show here the stereoselective synthesis of 4-methylpregabalin stereoisomers using a Michael addition of dimethyl malonate ...

1H-Imidazol-4(5H)-ones and thiazol-4(5H)-ones as emerging pronucleophiles in asymmetric catalysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Asymmetric catalysis represents a very powerful tool for the synthesis of enantiopure compounds. In this context the main focus has been directed not only to the search for new efficient chiral catalysts, but also to the development of efficient ...

Oxetanes: Recent Advances in Synthesis, Reactivity and Medicinal Chemistry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The 4-membered oxetane ring has been increasingly exploited for its behaviors, i.e. influence on physicochemical properties as a stable motif in medicinal chemistry, and propensity to undergo ring opening reactions as a synthetic intermediate.
