RESUMO
[reaction: see text]. Chiral Cr(Salen) complex (1) prepared in situ from CrCl3 promotes the enantioselective addition of 1,3-dichloropropene to aromatic aldehydes in the presence of Mn as the stoichiometric reductant and Me3SiCl as a scavenger. The resulting 1,2-chlorohydrins obtained in good enantiomeric and diastereoisomeric excesses can be easily transformed into the corresponding chiral vinyl epoxides.

The Nozaki-Hiyama reaction can be performed in an enantioselective catalytic way! The catalytic system utilizes 10 mol % of an inexpensive chiral [Cr(salen)] complex. The [Cr(salen)]/Mn/Me(3)SiCl system effectively promotes the enantioselective addition of allyl chloride to aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes at room temperature (65-89 % ee, 40-60 % yield).
RESUMO
New analogs of cyclic amino acid-conjugated bile acids were synthesized, and their physicochemical and biological properties were compared with those of natural analogs. Ursodeoxycholic acid was amidated with D-proline, L-proline, 4-hydroxy-L-proline, and 4-methoxy-L-proline. Hyocholic and hyodeoxycholic acids were amidated with L-proline. The physicochemical properties were similar to those of the natural analogs. All of them were highly stable toward enzymatic C-24 amide bond hydrolysis and 7-dehydroxylation. Their transport, metabolism, and effect on biliary lipid secretion were evaluated in bile fistula rat after intravenous infusion. All the analogs were secreted in bile unmodified. The 4-methoxy-L-proline derivative produced the highest secretion rate, much higher than those of all the other natural and synthetic analogs. This was associated with a selective reduction of cholesterol secretion with normal phospholipid secretion and choleresis. When coinfused, all the analogs were able to prevent the hepatotoxicity induced by intravenous taurochenodeoxycholic acid, as revealed by normal choleresis, alkaline phosphatase, and lactate dehydrogenase values in bile. Considering the overall data, 4-methoxy-L-proline, 4-hydroxy-L-proline, and L-proline derivatives of ursodeoxycholic acid were more potent than the natural analogs.
