āI have given myself up to the study of the Stateā: Wyndham Lewis, Modernism, the Avant-garde, and the State
In his introduction to the recent
Cambridge
Companion to Wyndham Lewis,
Tyrus Miller
describes the modernist painter, novelist, and critic Wyndham Lewis (1882
-
1957) as an
embodiment of āthe boundary crossing nature of the avant
-
gardeā (2016, p. 6). In Millerās
account, the avant
-
garde of the early twentieth century ātore apar
t the conventional boundaries
between the various arts, between artistic and political activity, and between aesthetic works
and conceptual discourseā (2016 p. 6). The historical avant

by which is meant the

in the years prior to the First World War

can be broadly characterised by its vehement
opposition to bourgeois society, and its conception of the potential of experimental art and
literature to act as a cat
alyst for radical social change
Asymmetric Synthesis of Akt Kinase Inhibitor Ipatasertib
A highly
efficient asymmetric synthesis of the Akt kinase inhibitor
ipatasertib (<b>1</b>) is reported. The bicyclic pyrimidine <b>2</b> starting material was prepared via a nitrilase biocatalytic
resolution, halogenāmetal exchange/anionic cyclization, and
a highly diastereoselective biocatalytic ketone reduction as key steps.
The route also features a halide activated, Ru-catalyzed asymmetric
hydrogenation of a vinylogous carbamic acid to produce Ī±-aryl-Ī²-amino
acid <b>3</b> in high yield and enantioselectivity. The API
was assembled in a convergent manner through a late-stage amidation/deprotection/monohydrochloride
salt formation sequence
