A catalytic regio- and enantioselective haloazidation reaction with a chiral iron(II) complex catalyst under mild reaction conditions was reported. By this approach, the stereoselective α-halo-β-azido difunctionalization of both α,β-unsaturated amides and α,β-unsaturated esters was achieved. This method enabled the construction of a broad spectrum of valuable functionalized amides and esters, including

A series of new 2-(phenylalkyl)oxirane-2-carboxylic acids has been synthesized and studied for its effects on the concentration of blood glucose. Most of the compounds exhibit remarkable blood glucose lowering activities in fasted rats. Structure-activity studies reveal that substituents like Cl or CF3 on the phenyl ring and a chain length of three to five carbon atoms lead to the most effective substances
