The esterification of the dihydroxyphosphonic intermediate was the key step. The title compound was obtained in good yield and its optical purity was up to the medicine quality standard of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.展开更多

Six compounds have showed potent antihistamine H1 activity. The primary SAR analysis indicated that benzyl or benzylidinyl substituted on the exo-nitrogen atom and C2 of the benzimidazole were significant. Further experiments indicated that compound 17d displayed excellent activity to reduce mast cell degranulation, moderate anti-PAF activity and decreased potency on hERG compared to astennizole. Hence compound 17d could serve as anti-allergic agent for further development.展开更多

It can be successfully prepared via enantioselective hydrolysis of racemic esters （（-4-）-1） catalyzed by bacterial lipases, but the current reaction evaluation method is tedious and inconvenient. Electronic circular dichroism （ECD） has been widely applied in the stereochemical study of chiral compounds. In this paper, a rapid ECD spectroscopic method has been proposed and established to detect the transformation directly. The absolute configurations of lipase-catalyzed hydrolysis products have also been confirmed by quantum-chemical calculation using time-dependent density functional theory （TDDFT） methodology.展开更多
