The synthesis of (3E)-1-benzyl-3-[(2-oxopyridin-1(2H)-yl)methylidene]piperidine-2,6-dione 5 from N-benzylglutarimide was achieved in three steps. The asymmetric hydrogenation of 4 gave either the product of partial reduction (10) or full reduction (13), depending on the catalyst which was employed, in high ee in each case. Attempts at asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of resulted in forma...

This is the first report on the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) of dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepine compounds in the presence of an (R,R)-Ru-Ts-DPEN complex. The developed catalytic asymmetric protocol provides biologically active 11-substituted-10,11-dihydrodibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxazepines with excellent conversion (up to >99%) and high enantioselectivity (up to 93% ee) in water as an environment...

A 35 years old man presented with primary pulmonary alveolar proteinosis who was admitted to chest unit of ATH through casualty department. Before he came to our ward he was treated with different antibiotics including anti-tuberculosis drugs for a month at least. But his symptoms did not improve rather his dyspnoea got worse. He was misdiagnosed till histopathology revealed that he has pulmona...
