Herein we describe the practical synthesis of a novel VLA-4 antagonist 1 as a potential treatment for multiple sclerosis. The key step is based on the Povarov reaction of an imine with an alkene to access a tetrahydroquinoline intermediate, leading to the corresponding quinoline core after an oxidative aromatization step. The development of the synthesis of 1 led to decreased complexity and the elimination of chromatographic purifications. These improvements were demonstrated at scale by the production of 32 kg of 1 in high yield with excellent purity.

Pyrido-phenanthrolin-7-one compounds are structural analogues of the cytotoxic alkaloid, ascididemin, and would be expected to have interesting biological activities. Synthetic strategies are reported for a novel simple route to form this class of ligand. 1,10-Phenanthrolin-5,6-dione reacts with l-phenylalanine alkyl esters and their para-substituted analogues to form both a phenanthroline-oxazine and a pyrido-phenanthrolin-7-one product. The nature of the major product is dependent on the electronic properties of the para substituent. Successful metal coordination to the pyrido-phenanthrolin-7-one ligand is also presented.

The design and synthesis of recyclable imidazolidinone catalysts using GAP chemistry/technique was described. Their applications in asymmetric Diels-Alder and Friedel-Crafts reactions with α,β-unsaturated aldehydes resulted in excellent yields and higher enantioselectivities than previous processes. As recyclable small molecular catalysts, phosphonylated imidazolidinones can be recovered and reused for up to three runs without costing significant decrease in catalytic activity.
