- Rhodium-catalyzed enantioseletive hydrogenation of tetrasubstituted α-acetoxy β-enamido esters: A new approach to chiral α-hydroxyl-β-amino acid derivatives
-
Asymmetric hydrogenation of tetrasubtitued α-acetoxy β-enamido esters with rhodium catalysts based on chiral diphosphine ligands provides an efficient and concise route to the synthesis of chiral α-hydroxyl-β-amino acid derivatives in excellent enantioselectivities. The products are valuable chiral building blocks in many biologically active compounds and have important applications in organic synthesis.

- New enzymatic two-step cascade reaction for the preparation of a key intermediate for the taxol side-chain
-
Enzymatic strategies are reported for the synthesis of (2R, 3S)-3-amino-2-hydroxy-3-phenylpropionic acid (ee > 98%), a key intermediate of the side-chain of Taxolby enzymatic hydrolysis in organic media. The new enzymatic cascade reaction, which took place through Candida antarctica lipase B-catalysed deacylation followed by lactam ring-opening of racemic cis-3-acetoxy-4-phenylazetidin-2-one with H2O in iPr2O at: 60 °C, resulted in two different enantiopure products (ee ≥ 98%), one of them being the desired key intermediate for the side-chain of Taxol.
