Article Abstract
Dynamic deracemization processes, such as crystallization-induced diastereomer transformations (CIDTs), offer the opportunity to combine racemization and resolution processes, to provide high yields of enantiomerically pure compounds. To date, few of these processes have incorporated photochemical racemization. By combining batch crystallization with a flow photoreactor for efficient irradiation, it is possible to perform such deracemization in an effective, scalable and high yielding manner. After applying design of experiment (DoE) principles and mathematical modelling, the most efficient parameter set could be identified, leading to excellent results in just 4 h reaction time: isolated yield of 82 % and assay ee of 96 %. Such photochemical racemization methods can serve to open new avenues for preparation of enantiomerically pure functional molecules on both small and industrially-relevant scales.

Transient Induction of Chirality from an Activated Carboxylic Acid to a Zinc Complex.
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl

Enantiomerically pure activated carboxylic acids (ACAs), (R)- and (S)-2-cyano-2-phenylpropanoic acids, are exploited to program the induction of chirality onto a zinc metal complex over time. NMR analysis shows that binding of the enantiopure ACA conjugate base to the Zn center breaks the symmetry of the complex and induces the formation of a single diastereoisomeric metal complex. Such a diastereoisomer is present only as long as the ACA is found in solution, and the ACA loading determines the time interval in which it persists in solution.

We herein demonstrate the synthesis of a pair of enantiomerically pure Yb complexes by post-functionalisation of the parent Yb complex condensation with an enantiomerically pure chiral amine. The enantiomeric pair is structurally characterised by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, showing that it crystalises in the 222 Sohncke space group with Flack parameters close to zero, which confirms their enantiopurity. Circular Dichroism (CD) and absorption spectroscopies in the NIR reveal sharp F → F f-f transitions, with values up to 0.

Two distorted nanographenes combining helicenes and a fluoranthene unit within their polycyclic scaffolds were synthesized. Their structural and electronic properties were elucidated by various spectroscopic methods, and the experimental data were corroborated computationally. The optical and electrochemical properties of the nanographenes were evaluated.

To target epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling in breast (MCF-7) and lung (A549) cancers, a library of chirally functionalized 1,3,5-triazine scaffolds was designed by a ligand-based drug design approach. An optimized synthetic protocol employing sequential chlorine replacement on cyanuric chloride delivered enantiomerically pure chiral-1,3,5-triazine derivatives. Through systematic structural modifications, fine-tuned physicochemical properties and optimal ADME profiles are achieved.
