RESUMO
We disclose a catalytic method for the enantio- and diastereoselective union of alkyl ethers and heterodienes. We demonstrate that a chiral Cu-BOX complex catalyzes the efficient oxidation of ethers into enol ethers in the presence of trityl acetate. Then, the organocopper promotes stereoselective hetero Diels-Alder reaction between the in situ generated enol ethers and ß,γ-unsaturated ketoesters, allowing for rapid access to an array of dihydropyran derivatives possessing three vicinal stereogenic centers.

Activating point mutations in the MET tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) are oncogenic in a subset of papillary renal cell carcinomas. Here, using comprehensive genomic profiling among >600,000 patients, we identify activating MET TKD point mutations as putative oncogenic driver across diverse cancers, with a frequency of â¼0.5%. The most common mutations in the MET TKD defined as oncogenic or likely oncogenic according to OncoKB resulted in amino acid substitutions at positions H1094, L1195, F1200, D1228, Y1230, M1250, and others. Preclinical modeling of these alterations confirmed their oncogenic potential and also demonstrated differential patterns of sensitivity to type I and type II MET inhibitors. Two patients with metastatic lung adenocarcinoma harboring MET TKD mutations (H1094Y, F1200I) and no other known oncogenic drivers achieved confirmed partial responses to a type I MET inhibitor. Activating MET TKD mutations occur in multiple malignancies and may confer clinical sensitivity to currently available MET inhibitors. Significance: The identification of targetable genomic subsets of cancer has revolutionized precision oncology and offers patients treatments with more selective and effective agents. Here, we demonstrate that activating, oncogenic MET tyrosine kinase domain mutations are found across a diversity of cancer types and are responsive to MET tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
