A fast, convenient procedure for preparing and resolving moderate to large quantities of chiral secondary alcohols is described. The general procedure involves a one-pot conversion of the ketone (various acetophenones) to the half-ester of a diacid (succinic, phthalic… ) and resolution with (+)- and (−)-1-phenylethylamines. Overall yields of the enantiomeric alcohols, the variously substituted 1-phenylethanols, are generally 65–85% with optical purities of approximately 90%. Properties and optical rotations of a number of chiral 1-phenylethanols and of the bromides made from them are tabulated. A discussion of optical purity determinations using nmr methods is included and absolute configurations are reported.

The present work reports theMetschnikowia koreensis-catalyzed one-pot deracemization of secondary alcohols/1,2-diols and their derivatives with in vivo cofactor regeneration. Reaction is stereoselective and proceeds with sequential oxidation of (R)-secondary alcohols to the corresponding ketones and the reduction of the ketones to (S)-secondary alcohols. Method is applicable to a repertoire of racemic aryl secondary alcohols and 1,2-diols establishing a wide range of substrate specificity ofM. koreensis. This ecofriendly method afforded the product in high yield (88%) and excellent optical purity (>98%ee), minimizing the requirement of multistep reaction and expensive cofactor.

Abstract Anthraquinones are of significant interest due to their biological activity, coloring properties and synthetic applications. Here, we describe a mild and convenient method for modification of 1-ethynyl-4-hydroxyanthraquinone that was obtained from the Sonogashira reaction of 1-hydroxy-4-iodoanthraquinone with alkynes. The copper(I) catalyzed one-pot three component reaction (A3-coupling) of the new 1-ethynyl-4-hydroxyanthraquinone with secondary amines and formaldehyde was the main approach for the synthesis of nitrogen substituted 1-[3-(amino)prop-1-ynyl]-4-hydroxyanthraquinones. The influence of different substituent in the amine on reaction rate and yield has been evaluated. The cytotoxicity of 1-ethynyl-4-hydroxyanthraquinones was evaluated using the conventional MTT assay. Among all the compounds synthesized, anthraquinone-propargylamine derivatives 28, 29, 30 and 34 possess most promising cytotoxic potential towards glioblastoma cancer cells; compounds 14 and 19 shown selectivity towards the prostate cancer cells DU-145, and 18, and 24 – towards breast cancer cells MCF-7. The grown inhibition on these cancer cells of 18 and 24 was comparable to those of standard drug Doxorubicin. Molecular modeling of new compounds in DNA G-quadruplex binding site was performed to help understand the observed SAR trends.
