A more accurate half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality in the whole plane and the reverses
A more accurate half-discrete Hilbert-type inequality in the whole plane with multi-parameters is established by the use of Hermite–Hadamard’s inequality and weight functions. Furthermore, some equivalent forms and some special types of inequalities and operator representations as well as reverses are considered
A new system for catalytic asymmetric epoxidation
This thesis concerns the catalytic asymmetric synthesis of epoxides. An
introduction highlights the utility of chiral epoxides in asymmetric synthesis. The
important methods that have been developed towards the construction of this
influential functional group are also described. [Continues.
Epoxide Syntheses and Ring-Opening Reactions in Drug Development
This review concentrates on success stories from the synthesis of approved medicines and drug candidates using epoxide chemistry in the development of robust and efficient syntheses at large scale. The focus is on those parts of each synthesis related to the substrate-controlled/diastereoselective and catalytic asymmetric synthesis of epoxide intermediates and their subsequent ring-opening reactions with various nucleophiles. These are described in the form of case studies of high profile pharmaceuticals spanning a diverse range of indications and molecular scaffolds such as heterocycles, terpenes, steroids, peptidomimetics, alkaloids and main stream small molecules. Representative examples include, but are not limited to the antihypertensive diltiazem, the antidepressant reboxetine, the HIV protease inhibitors atazanavir and indinavir, efinaconazole and related triazole antifungals, tasimelteon for sleep disorders, the anticancer agent carfilzomib, the anticoagulant rivaroxaban the antibiotic linezolid and the antiviral oseltamivir. Emphasis is given on aspects of catalytic asymmetric epoxidation employing metals with chiral ligands particularly with the Sharpless and Jacobsen–Katsuki methods as well as organocatalysts such as the chiral ketones of Shi and Yang, Pages’s chiral iminium salts and typical chiral phase transfer agents
Organocatalytic Asymmetric Halocyclization of Allylic Amides to Chiral Oxazolines Using DTBM-SEGPHOS—Mechanistic Implications from Hammett Plots
The intramolecular halocyclization of alkenes possessing an internal heteroatom nucleophile leads to multifunctional heterocycles which are useful versatile intermediates in organic synthesis. The asymmetric chlorocyclisation of 2-substituted allylic amides gives access to chiral oxazolines bearing a chloromethyl moiety for further synthetic manipulation. The literature reports on this transformation involve complex syntheses of the 2-substituted allylic amides and cryogenic temperatures for achieving high enantioselectivities in the organocatalyzed halocyclization step. Based on the Heck reaction of aryl bromides and Boc-protected allylamine or allylamine benzamides, we developed a practical synthesis of 2-substituted allylic amides that does not require chromatography and accomplished their asymmetric halocyclization reaction with 24–92%ee under practical conditions (5 °C, CpME) catalyzed by (S)-(+)-DTBM-SEGPHOS. In addition, using appropriately substituted substrates, we generated Hammett plots and formulated a consistent mechanism for the halocyclization reaction which involves two competing modes of formation of the haliranium intermediate whose relative kinetics are governed by the electronic properties of the substrate

Organocatalysis of asymmetric epoxidation by iminium salts using sodium hypochlorite as the stoichiometric oxidant
Iminium salts can provide high selectivity and high efficiency when used as organocatalysts for asymmetric epoxidation. For this purpose, they are normally used in conjunction with Oxone as the stoichiometric oxidant. Oxone, however, has limited stability, is insoluble in most organic solvents, is atom-inefficient, and produces considerable inorganic residue as the by-product of oxidation. In this paper we report for the first time the development of a reaction system driven by sodium hypochlorite as the stoichiometric oxidant
