- Bifunctional Br?nsted Base Catalyst Enables Regio-, Diastereo-, and Enantioselective Cα-Alkylation of β-Tetralones and Related Aromatic-Ring-Fused Cycloalkanones
-
The catalytic asymmetric synthesis of both α-substituted and α,α-disubstituted (quaternary) β-tetralones through direct α-functionalization of the corresponding β-tetralone precursor remains elusive. A designed Br?nsted base-squaramide bifunctional catalyst promotes the conjugate addition of either unsubstituted or α-monosubstituted β-tetralones to nitroalkenes. Under these reaction conditions, not only enolization, and thus functionalization, occurs at the α-carbon atom of the β-tetralone exclusively, but adducts including all-carbon quaternary centers are also formed in highly diastereo- and enantioselective manner.

- Rapid access to chroman-3-ones through gold-catalyzed oxidation of propargyl aryl ethers
-
The two-step: Chroman-3-ones are important intermediates for organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry. However, their syntheses require multiple steps and are not efficient. By using gold-catalyzed alkyne oxidation, this versatile heterocycle can be prepared in only two steps from readily available phenols and with mostly high efficiencies (see scheme).

- 6- and 8-Hydroxy-3,4-dihydro-3-(dipropylamino)-2H-1-benzopyrans. Dopamine Agonists with Autoreceptor Selectivity
-
The dopamine agonist profiles of 3,4-duhydro-3-(3-dipropylamino)-2H-1-benzopyran-6- and 8-ol (4 and 5, respectively) were examined.Both 4 and 5 exhibited greater relative affinity for receptors labeled with the dopamine agonist ligand propylnorapomorphine than for those labeled with the dopamine antagonist ligand haloperidol.Both compounds attenuated the simulation of brain dopamine synthesis caused by γ-butyrolactone (GBL) and decreased the firing rate of substantia nigra dopamine neurons in rats.This profile of activity, together with the ability of the dopamine antagonist haloperidol to reverse the inhibition of dopamine neuronal firing, indicate that both compounds are brain dopamine agonists.
