Synthesis of PPAR agonist via asymmetric hydrogenation of a cinnamic acid derivative and stereospecific displacement of (S)-2-chloropropionic acid.

TL;DR: The synthesis of the peroxime proliferator activated receptor (PPAR) alpha,gamma-agonist was accomplished with high enantio- and diastereoselectivity by employing an asymmetric hydrogenation strategy, of an alpha-alkoxy cinnamic acid derivative, to set the C-2 chiral center.
Journal ArticleDOI

An expedient synthesis of 3-substituted indoles via reductive alkylation with ketones

TL;DR: In this article, 3-Alkylindoles were prepared from indoles and ketones via a convenient reductive alkylation procedure using triethylsilane and trichloroacetic acid.
