Summary by

Prof. Dr. O. P. Nautiyal

I am to be honored with Fellow of Royal Society Chemistry and Chartered scientist (CSci).

Untiring research to be accomplished for the benefit of society and nation. I wish to win awards and honor from GOI for my scientific, academic and corporate accomplishments. I want to let other know the spiritual power effect in being positive in life and career. The young and budding Organic chemist who wish to pursue their career in research shall be motivated for taking up research activities for the development of the society and country.

R&D Accomplishments:
New product development have been my great strength while working for various sectors which includes API’s like Colchicoside, thiocolchicoside, 3-demethylthiocolchicine, Methscopolamine nitrate USP, Etoposide, Parsol, biotransformation of drug precursor like thiocolchicine to 3-demethylthiocolchicine, synthesis of side chain and undertaking the coupling reactions for synthesizing the drug with complete efficacy as pharmacopoeia. I have performed the research with non infringing the patents. I have also been expert in eradicating the drug impurities from the final drug in keeping the cost of the process in mind. The best accomplishment that I could mention is of Mount Cat from hydro colloids which were deproteinated first without allowing transforming the major structures and then quaternizing it. I was the first scientist among the USA colleagues to claim the breakthrough for the same. The product was registered in the chemical abstracts in the year 2006 and was also forwarded for the filling of patent then. All my accomplishments are well adopted. In most of the technology development I helped in saving at least 5-15% of the process cost.
Hydro colloids being rich in protein contents and hence the deproteination was done and analyzed. The protocol was made and also the process was forwarded for the patenting. Validation, co-ordination and training were the part of the responsibilities.

• Research

During his research career over three decades, the research group of Yamamoto has developed a wide range of new reagents and reactions. In particular, his research laid the foundation for modern designer Lewis and Brønsted acid chemistry. His group has invented many methods for carbon-carbon bond formation, for constructing various ring system, for interconversion of functional groups, for controlling relative and absolute stereochemisry, and for efficient synthesis of natural and unnatural products. His current interests are mainly development of new synthetic reactions in the filed of acid catalysis including designer Lewis and Brønsted acids, and combination of these two acid systems targeting more versatile, more selective, and more reactive catalysts, aiming at environmentally benign systems.

His research in the area of organoaluminum chemistry has had a great impact on synthetic organic chemistry. The strong Lewis acidity of organoaluminum compounds appears to account for their strong tendency to form a stable 1:1 complex. Thus, the coordination of molecules invariably causes a change of reactivity, and the coordinated group may be activated or deactivated depending upon the type of reaction. Furthermore, with coordination of organic molecules an auxiliary bond can become coupled to the reagent and promote the desired reaction. In short, the reagents make a combined Lewis acid – Lewis base attack on a substrate with less activation energy, a field opened by Yamamoto’s early and highly original studies. His aluminum amide reagents for epoxide rearrangement, biogenetic-type terpene synthesis, and the Beckmann rearrangement-alkylation reaction sequence are notable examples.

He was intrigued by the chemistry of the carbonyl compound-Lewis acid complex and introduced the unusually bulky organoaluminum reagents, methylaluminum bis(2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenoxide) (MAD) and aluminum tris(2,6-diphenylphenoxide) (ATPH).[1] These reagents were successfully utilized for the selective alkylation of cyclic ketones and aldehydes to generate equatorial alcohol and an anti-Cram type product, respectively, for trans- and cis-selective Claisen rearrangement, for regioselective Diels-Alder reaction, and for epoxide-aldehyde rearrangement. The ATPH – aromatic carbonyl complex reacts with nucleophiles selectively at the para-position of the aromatic ring to generate cyclohexadiene derivatives.

After these pioneering researches in Lewis acid chemistry, Yamamoto has become aware of the vast importance of chiral Lewis acids in modern asymmetric synthesis. In 1985, he first introduced binaphthol as a key ligand for chiral Lewis acid catalysts.[2] This work was the forerunner of a vast quantity of present-day research on the binaththol based chiral Lewis acid catalyst. Based on his knowledge of organoaluminum chemistry, he designed a new and powerful organoaluminum catalyst for asymmetric hetero-Diels-Alder reaction. It was his Brønsted acid-Lewis acid combined system, however, which gave him a unique opportunity for the most efficient asymmetric Lewis acid catalyst for Diels-Alder reaction. A similar concept was employed for his catalytic asymmetric protonation under acidic conditions, which now creates a long sought proton induced asymmetric polyene cyclization.

His discovery of tartaric acid based catalyst (CAB catalyst) and amino acid based catalyst led to the first enantioselective Diels-Alder reaction of a broad range of dienes and dienophiles.[3] The same catalyst was shown to be the first highly efficient catalyst for asymmetric aldol and ene type reactions. The reaction is simple, exceedingly stereoselective, and environmentally friendly.

Direct condensation of carboxylic acids by alcohols or amines is the most important transformation of organic synthesis. Yamamoto found Lewis acid catalyst could play an important role for such esterification and amidation processes. For example, his new hafnium catalyzed esterification and boron catalyzed amidation are now becoming increasingly important to the chemical industry.

More recently, he has developed new asymmetric oxidation processes based on an acid catalysis concept.  His nitroso chemistry offers an entirely new access to selective organic synthesis and provides catalytic enantioselective reaction to introduce oxygen and/or nitrogen into the molecule.[4]  His pyridine based nitroso- and azo-hetero-Diels-Alder provides powerful tool for asymmetric synthesis.  He also recently reported asymmetric epoxidation of homoallylic alcohols based on new vanadium catalyst, one of the most difficult asymmetric oxidations to date.

After moving to Chicago, he proposed the use of 8-hydroxyquinole based chiral Lewis acid catalysis.[5]  The catalyst is designed as a rigid metal complex of cis-b-configuation.  The reagent turned out to be a brand-new “privileged ligand” for asymmetric synthesis.  Catalytic asymmetric pinacol coupling, NH reaction, Mukaiyama-Michael addition, and Pudovik reactions are now able to proceed with complete enantioselectivities.

His laboratory is also noted for its introduction of metal reagents that allow highly selective SN2 cross coupling with carbonyl and allylic electrophiles. Allylic organobarium reagent, so-called “Yamamoto’s reagent”, reacts with a variety of electrophiles selectively at less substituted termini with complete stereospecificity, resolving a long-standing problem in terpene synthesis.

Lewis and Brønsted acids can be utilized as more-effective tools for chemical reactions by sophisticated engineering (“designer acids”). The ultimate goal of such “designer acids” is to form a combination of acids with higher reactivity, selectivity, and versatility than the individual acid catalysts. One possible way to take advantage of such abilities may be to apply a “combined acids system” to the catalyst design. The concept of combined acids, which can be classified into Brønsted acid assisted Lewis acid (BLA), Lewis acid assisted Lewis acid (LLA), Lewis acid assisted Brønsted acid (LBA), and Brønsted acid assisted Brønsted acid (BBA), can be a particularly useful tool for the design of asymmetric catalysis, because combining such acids will bring out their inherent reactivity by associative interaction, and also provide more-organized structures that allow an effective asymmetric environment.

The catalytic enantioselective oxidation is an extremely important process in organic synthesis and numbers of effort to improve this process have been reported so far. Although nitroso and azo compounds are attractive tools for hydroxylation and amination of organic compounds, no reports on a catalytic asymmetric version of these reactions had been reported until recently. The main issues were their high and unique reactivities. In this review, we would like to introduce the recent advances in this area.

The tethered bis(8-quinolinolato) metal (TBOxM) complexes have found practical use in many asymmetric reactions. The development of highly enantioselective reactions using TBOxM is surveyed. General reaction schemes and examples using these highly active and selective catalysts are given and discussed in this tutorial review.

WE SALUTE YOU SIR

His public appeal in his own words

Aloha Bio Research-Education Friends and Colleagues,I appreciate your recent linking to me on the LinkedIn network and directly at boritzer@bioinfomedical.com Our Mission is to provide molecular biological product support, for research and development of Biosimilars, Personalized Medicine, and Traditional Pharma.

Through our networks and relationships in over 60 countries, we help engage the scientific community in the cure and treatment of life-threatening and newly emerging diseases. You can find us at www.bioinfomedical.com , where our enterprise guarantees the highest levels of purity at “budget-constrained” prices.

If you prefer to “buy the machine” instead of the product, we do offer the technology to produce any of our over 3,500 recombinant proteins and antibodies. If you do not find what you need in our online catalog (bottom right of landing page), we will be happy to entertain custom orders.

With our accumulated experience in graduate and distance learning, we actively encourage, participate, and support American biotechnology and biological sciences education (Certificate, Masters, and Ph.D.). Our hybrid formats integrate short campus residency at first rate “bricks and mortar” campuses, on-line synchronous and asynchronous instruction, and the use of strategically located research labs in the U.S.A., Europe, and Asia.

We look forward to meeting your needs.Thank you, Dr. Rafi

Over the course of my 20+ year career as an interdisciplinary and multicultural university educator, social scientist, marketer, entrepreneur and administrator, I have directed organizations, programs and initiatives that promote academic excellence, improve student performance, and strengthen educational outcomes.

I have taught at Professor levels in the disciplines of healthcare administration, healthcare management information systems, sociology, global marketing and more.

I have a track record in leading and participating in accreditation requirements, and in driving the design and development of curriculum and course offerings, at both graduate and undergraduate levels.

My international experience encompasses five continents and I have an in-depth understanding of geopolitical contexts of business and effects on global and local economy and education. Complementing my teaching and administrative background is executive and research experience in healthcare, geriatrics, entrepreneurship, and marketing, including the conceptualization, startup, and growth of a successful firm engaged in the global transfer of medical/gerontological technologies and software, marketing of research cytokines, and strategic alliances.
