Hydrogenation of arenes is an important reaction not only for hydrogen storage and transport but also for the synthesis of functional molecules such as pharmaceuticals and biologically active compounds. Here, we describe the development of heterogeneous Rh-Pt bimetallic nanoparticle catalysts for the hydrogenation of arenes with inexpensive polysilane as support. The catalysts could be used in both batch and continuous-flow systems with high performance under mild conditions and showed wide substrate generality. In the continuous-flow system, the product could be obtained by simply passing the substrate and 1 atm H2 through a column packed with the catalyst. Remarkably, much higher catalytic performance was observed in the flow system than in the batch system, and extremely strong durability under continuous-flow conditions was demonstrated (>50 days continuous run; turnover number >3.4 × 105). Furthermore, details of the reaction mechanisms and the origin of different kinetics in batch and flow were studied, and the obtained knowledge was applied to develop completely selective arene hydrogenation of compounds containing two aromatic rings toward the synthesis of an active pharmaceutical ingredient.

Novel tricyclic indole-3-carboxamides were synthesized as structurally restricted analogs of bicyclic indoles, and found to be potent CB1 cannabinoid receptor agonists. The CB1 agonist activity depended on the absolute configuration of the chiral center of the tricyclic ring. The preferred enantiomer was more potent than the structurally unconstrained lead compound. Structure-activity relationships in the amide side chain of the indole C-3 position were also investigated.

The thermal reaction of 3-[(1S)-2-alkoxy-1-apocamphanecarbonyl]-2-oxazolones (21a-c) with dialkyl azodicarboxylates (9) results in exclusive formation of [4 + 2] type cycloadducts (22 and 23) with moderate levels of diastereofacial selection (up to 72% d.e.). The diastereomers thus obtained were readily purified and subsequent treatment with acidic methanol followed by removal of the auxiliary with LiBH4/MeOH (1:2) gave optically pure 4-methoxy-5-hydrazino-2-oxazolidinones (26 and 27), which serve as α-aminoaldehyde templates useful for the synthesis of a wide variety of optically active α-amino acids as well as 4-alkyl and 4-aryl-2-oxazolidinones.
