This is an update of our previous work concerning the development of Atropos biphenyl bisphosphine ligands. An unexpected Atropos structural property was confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and this result is consistent with the computational calculations described in our previous work. This P-stereogenic bisphosphine ligand possessing a biphenyl backbone and 2,2′-tert-butylmethylphosphino groups has been applied to the Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of enol esters, which has not been widely studied and can be used for the synthesis of several important bioactive compounds. Although there is room for further improvement in enantioselectivity, the results reported herein provide a further understanding of such types of ligands. (Figure presented.).

A series of hydroxylated 3-hydroxycoumarins was synthesised and evaluated for their antioxidant properties. The compounds substituted on the C-7 position were almost as antioxidant as quercetin or vitamin C. The antioxidant properties were related by an EPR study to their abilities to give stable semiquinonic or polyhydroxylated radicals. A series of hydroxylated 3-hydroxycoumarins was synthesised by the reaction of 3-aryl-2-hydroxypropenoic derivatives with boron tribromide. They were evaluated for their ability to scavenge the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical, the superoxide anion radical, the hydroxyl radical and the peroxynitrite anion and to inhibit copper-induced human LDL peroxidation. The physicochemical results were in accordance to establish the compounds hydroxylated on C-6 and C-7 positions as the most active of the series with antioxidant potencies comparable to those of quercetin and vitamin C. These compounds form o- and p-quinonoid derivatives upon radical scavenging and may serve as new lead compounds for pharmacological investigations.
