Nickel-catalyzed enantioselective cross-couplings between symmetric cyclic sulfates and aromatic Grignard reagents are described. These reactions are effective with a broad range of substituted cyclic sulfates and deliver products with asymmetric tertiary carbon centers. Mechanistic experiments point to a stereoinvertive SN2-like oxidative addition of a nickel complex to the electrophilic substrate
Structure-activity relationship (SAR) of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor agonists with a dihydronaphthalene scaffold was investigated. Compound 1 was modified to improve S1P(1) agonistic activity and in vivo peripheral lymphocyte lowering (PLL) activity without impairing selectivity over S1P(3) agonistic activity. A detailed SAR study of the terminal lipophilic part revealed that the introduction of substituents on the propylene linker and the terminal benzene ring influences in vitro and PLL activities. Compound 6n bearing a (S)-methyl group at the 2-position on the propylene linker and chlorine at the para-position on the terminal benzene ring showed potent hS1P(1) agonistic activity with excellent selectivity over hS1P(3) and in vivo PLL activity in mice.

A series of new chiral tetrahydroquinoline ligands, derived from chiral alpha-pinene, were successfully synthesized. Iridium and palladium complexes of these ligands were proven to be efficient catalysts for enantioselective hydrogenation and allylic substitution reactions with moderate to excellent enantioselectivities (90-95% ee) and high yields.
