Three component hydroxyletherification and hydroxylazidation of (trifluoromethyl)alkenes: access to α-trifluoromethyl β-heteroatom substituted tertiary alcohols
The three component hydroxyletherification and hydroxylazidation reactions of (trifluoromethyl)alkenes are reported, providing various useful α-trifluoromethyl β-heteroatom substituted tertiary alcohols in high yields.
Bis-oximinoalkanoic acid derivatives were designed and synthesized to aid in the characterization of selective PPAR alpha agonists by replacing the oxazole ring with flexible oximino group in the lipophilic tail part of a previously reported compound 3. Selected compounds 9d and 9m showed excellent potency and high selectivity towards PPAR alpha in vitro. These compounds found effective in reducing serum triglycerides (TG) in vivo.
