RESUMO
A concise asymmetric synthesis of an 11ß-HSD-1 inhibitor has been achieved using inexpensive starting materials with excellent step-economy at low catalyst loadings. The catalytic enantioselective total synthesis of 1 was accomplished in 7 steps and 38% overall yield aided by the development of an innovative, sequential strategy involving Pd-catalyzed pyridinium C-H arylation and Ir-catalyzed asymmetric hydrogenation of the resulting fused tricyclic indenopyridinium salt highlighted by the use of a unique P,N-ligand (MeO-BoQPhos) with 1000 ppm of [Ir(COD)Cl]2.

The effects of polymer concentration, polymer molecular weight, and hydrophobe substitution level of modified poly(acrylic acid) polymers on the formation, size, and viscoelastic properties of shear-induced multilamellar vesicles (onions) are studied by rheology and light diffraction. The onions are close-packed, space-filling vesicles formed by shearing aqueous lamellar phases of C12E5 surfactant to produce phases with sufficient order and size uniformity (O(1-3 microm)) to diffract light. The addition of hydrophobically modified polymers enhances the rate of formation, uniformity, and stability independent of hydrophobe substitution level. Onion size decreases with increasing shear rate as observed for pure surfactant onion systems, but the shear-rate dependence is changed by the polymer. The onion phase has a plateau modulus that increases with polymer concentration but is independent of hydrophobe substitution level or molecular weight. The model presented by Panizza et al. that relates the plateau modulus of the onion phase to membrane rigidity and the compression modulus is consistent with independent measurements of membrane properties from SANS.
