Pauson-Khand Reactions with Concomitant C?O Bond Cleavage for the Preparation of 5,5- 5,6- and 5,7-Bicyclic Ring Systems

Pauson-Khand reactions (PKR) with concomitant C?O bond cleavage have been developed for construction of 5,5- 5,6- and 5,7-bicyclic ring systems bearing complex stereochemistry. The chemistry generates intermolecular PKR-type products in an absolute regio- and stereochemical control which is hardly achievable through real intermolecular Pauson-Khand reactions. A mechanism for this Pauson-Khand reaction has been proposed based on deuterium labelling experiments. (Figure presented.).

Stereoisomers of the monoterpene epoxycarvone (EC), namely (+)-cis-EC, (-)-cis-EC, (+)-Trans-EC, and (-)-Trans-EC, were comparatively evaluated for anticonvulsant activity in specific methodologies. In the pentylenetetrazole (PTZ)-induced anticonvulsant test, all of the stereoisomers (at 300 mg/kg) increased the latency to seizure onset, and afforded 100% protection against the death of the animals. In the maximal electroshock-induced seizures (MES) test, prevention of tonic seizures was also verified for all of the isomers tested. However, the isomeric forms (+) and (-)-Trans-EC showed 25% and 12.5% inhibition of convulsions, respectively. In the pilocarpine-induced seizures test, all stereoisomers demonstrated an anticonvulsant profile, yet the stereoisomers (+) and (-)-Trans-EC (at 300 mg/kg) showed a more pronounced effect. A strychnine-induced anticonvulsant test was performed, and none of the stereoisomers significantly increased the latency to onset of convulsions; the stereoisomers probably do not act in this pathway. However, the stereoisomers (+)-cis-EC and (+)-Trans-EC greatly increased the latency to death of the animals, thus presenting some protection. The four EC stereoisomers show promise for anticonvulsant activity, an effect emphasized in the isomers (+)-cis-EC, (+)-Trans-EC, and (-)-Trans-EC for certain parameters of the tested methodologies. These results serve as support for further research and development of antiepileptic drugs from monoterpenes.

A large series of novel chiral imidazolium ionic liquids were synthesized using the terpenoid carvone as the chiral substrate. Their specific rotations were characterized and their potential use in chiral recognition was demonstrated by studying interactions with racemic Mosher's acid salt.

Synthetically valuable bicyclic blocks 5, 7 and 9 were prepared by the oxidative cleavage of the double bond of 4 with the RuCl3-NaIO4 system and O3.
Percutaneous absorption of the montoterperne carvone: implication of stereoselective metabolism on blood levels.

The purpose of this study was to determine whether an enantioselective difference in the metabolism of topically applied R-(-)- and S-(+)-carvone could be observed in man. In a previous investigation we found that R-(-)- and S-(+)-carvone are stereoselectively biotransformed by human liver microsomes to 4R,6S-(-)- and 45,6S-(+)-carveol, respectively, and 4R,6S-(-)-carveol is further glucuronidated. We therefore investigated the metabolism and pharmacokinetics of R-(-)- and S-(+)-carvone in four healthy subjects using chiral gas chromatography as the analytical method. Following separate topical applications at a dose of 300 mg, R-(-)- and S-(+)-carvone were rapidly absorbed, resulting in significantly higher Cmax levels for S-(+)-carvone (88.0 vs 23.9 ng mL(-1)) and longer distribution half-lives (t(1/2alpha)) (19.4 vs 7.8 min), resulting in 3.4-fold higher areas under the blood concentration-time curves (5420 vs 1611 ng min mL(-1)). The biotransformation products for both enantiomers in plasma were below detection limit. Analysis of control- and beta-glucuronidase pretreated urine samples, however, revealed a stereoselective metabolism of R-(-)-carvone to 4R,6S-(-)-carveol and 4R,6S-(-)-carveol glucuronide. No metabolites could be found in urine samples after S-(+)-carvone application. These data indicate that stereoselectivity in phase-I and phase-II metabolism has significant effects on R-(-)- and S-(+)-carvone pharmacokinetics. This might serve to explain the increased blood levels of S-(+)-carvone.
Biotransformation of (S)-(-)- and (R)-(+)-limonene using Solanum aviculare and Dioscorea deltoidea plant cells

(S)-(-)- and (R)-(+)-limonene was transformed to carvone via corresponding cis- and trans-carveol using Solanum aviculare and Dioscorea deltoidea plant cells. Both carveols and carvone formed were racemic in all biotransformations.
Chiral Imidazo[1,5- a]pyridine-Oxazolines: A Versatile Family of NHC Ligands for the Highly Enantioselective Hydrosilylation of Ketones

Herein we report the synthesis and application of a versatile class of N-heterocyclic carbene ligands based on an imidazo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-ylidine backbone that is fused to a chiral oxazoline auxiliary. The key step in the synthesis of these ligands involves the installation of the oxazoline functionality via a microwave-assisted condensation of a cyano-azolium salt with a wide variety of 2-amino alcohols. The resulting chiral bidentate NHC-oxazoline ligands form stable complexes with rhodium(I) that are efficient catalysts for the enantioselective hydrosilylation of structurally diverse ketones. The corresponding secondary alcohols are isolated in good yields (typically >90%) with good to excellent enantioselectivities (80-93% ee). The reported hydrosilylation occurs at ambient temperatures (40 °C), with excellent functional group tolerability. Even ketones bearing heterocyclic substituents (e.g., pyridine or thiophene) or complex organic architectures are hydrosilylated efficiently, which is discussed further in this report.

The chemoselective reduction of α,β-unsaturated ketones by use of an economic and readily available Mg catalyst has been developed. Excellent yields for a wide range of ketones have been achieved under mild reaction conditions, short times, and low catalyst loadings (0.2-0.5 mol %).
