Interaction of Bisphenol A and Its Analogs with Estrogen and Androgen Receptor from Atlantic Cod ().

The widespread use of bisphenol A (BPA) in polycarbonate plastics and epoxy resins has made it a prevalent environmental pollutant in aquatic ecosystems. BPA poses a significant threat to marine and freshwater wildlife due to its documented endocrine-disrupting effects on various species. Manufacturers are increasingly turning to other bisphenol compounds as supposedly safer alternatives.

A streamlined and efficient approach to the key epoxide intermediate for the asymmetric synthesis of triazole antifungal agents is presented. This synthesis highlights a P(NMe)-mediated nonylidic olefination of α-keto ester, ensuring the exclusive formation of the requisite ()-alkene, followed by a highly enantioselective Jacobsen epoxidation to establish the two vicinal stereocenters in a single step. The versatility of this strategy is exemplified through the efficient synthesis of efinaconazole and ravuconazole.

Accessing each enantiomer of a chiral molecule starting from a racemic mixture remains a daunting challenge in chemistry. Indeed, until now, only a few solutions exist to separate enantiomers of an equimolar mixture of a chiral precursor. In this study, we establish a new strategy to prepare simultaneously and physically separate both enantioenriched enantiomers of a molecule starting from a racemic substrate.

A concise asymmetric total synthesis of diosniponols A and B has been achieved based on an enantioselective Jacobsen kinetic resolution of racemic epoxide and the important 2,3-dihydro-4-pyran-4-one moiety being installed by the metal-free δ-hydroxyalkynone rearrangement catalyzed by -TsOH. A diastereoselective catalytic hydrogenation set the required all- stereochemistry leading to diosniponol A, which then, under the Mitsunobu inversion conditions, provided diosniponol B. The structure and absolute stereochemistry of the natural products were further confirmed.

Licarin A, a dihydrobenzofuranic neolignan presents in several medicinal plants and seeds of nutmeg, exhibits strong activity against protozoans responsible for Chagas disease and leishmaniasis. From biomimetic reactions by metalloporphyrin and Jacobsen catalysts, seven products were determined: four isomeric products yielded by epoxidation from licarin A, besides a new product yielded by a vicinal diol, a benzylic aldehyde, and an unsaturated aldehyde in the structure of the licarin A. The incubation with rat and human liver microsomes partially reproduced the biomimetic reactions by the production of the same epoxidized product of 343 [M + H].
