Stent thrombosis following the STAR technique in a complex RCA chronic total occlusion
Authors: Erlich Ilana , Strauss Bradley H. , Butany Jagdish
Published: October 2006

Four drug‐eluting stents were deployed in the right coronary artery (RCA) of a symptomatic young woman who presented with a chronic total occlusion (CTO) of the RCA. The occlusion was successfully crossed using the recently described STAR technique. However, the patient died suddenly 15 hr later. Autopsy demonstrated a long segment of subintimal stenting in the proximal and mid RCA that was intraluminal in the distal vessel. Acute stent thrombosis in the subintimal stents was responsible for sudden death. This case highlights the potential risk of performing extensive subintimal stenting for CTO. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Ad Hoc percutaneous coronary interventions in patients with stable coronary artery disease—A study of prevalence, safety, and variation in use from the American College of Cardiology National Cardiovascular Data Registry (ACC‐NCDR®)
Authors: Krone Ronald J. , Shaw Richard E. , Klein Lloyd W. , Blankenship James C. , Weintraub William S. ,   on behalf of the American College of Cardiology—National Cardiovascular Data Registry®, Bethesda, MD
Published: October 2006

Objective: To utilize the American College of Cardiology National Cardiovascular Data Registry (ACC‐NCDR®) to monitor the performance and safety of ad hoc PCIs. Background: The performance of ad hoc PCI remains controversial. Patients' preference, cost, and vascular access issues favor an ad hoc strategy. Adequate time for thoughtful decision‐making, scheduling complexity, informed consent, and physician reimbursement favor PCI on a subsequent day. Methods: We analyzed results in 68,528 patients with stable angina entered in the ACC‐NCDR from 2001–2003. Ad hoc PCI was evaluated in many clinical and nonclinical subgroups. A multivariable analysis was performed to determine whether ad hoc PCI had an independent relationship with complications or procedure success. Results: Overall, 60.6% of patients underwent ad hoc PCI. There was no difference in ad hoc PCI mortality, renal failure, or vascular complications from staged PCI. A lower percentage of patients at high vs. low risk and with vs. without renal failure underwent ad hoc PCIs (58.6% vs.63.0% and 50.7% vs. 60.9% respectively). There was wide variation in the performance of ad hoc PCIs according to payer (70.2–60.3%), hospital PCI volume (67–50.2%), hospital owner (89.7–59.6%), and geographic area (75.5–47.4%). Ad hoc PCI per se was not independently related to PCI success or complications. Conclusions: PCI success was related to patient/lesion related factors and not to the performance of ad hoc PCIs per se. Although ad hoc PCI can be performed in more patients than at present, this strategy will never be possible in all patients at all times. © 2006 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Catalytic Enantioselective Domino Oxa‐Michael/Aldol Condensations: Asymmetric Synthesis of Benzopyran Derivatives
Authors: Sundén Henrik , Ibrahem Ismail , Zhao Gui‐Ling , Eriksson Lars , Córdova Armando
Published: October 2006

Enantioselective Michael Addition of α‐Substituted Cyanoacetates to Vinyl Ketones Catalyzed by Bifunctional Organocatalysts
Authors: Liu Tian‐Yu , Li Rui , Chai Qian , Long Jun , Li Bang‐Jing , Wu Yong , Ding Li‐Sheng , Chen Ying‐Chun
Published: October 2006

A highly enantioselective Michael addition of α‐substituted cyanoacetates to vinyl ketones was accomplished in the presence of simple bifunctional thiourea/tertiary amine organocatalysts. A number of α‐aryl or alkyl cyanoacetates have been successfully applied to give multifunctional compounds with an all‐carbon‐substituted quaternary stereocenter in excellent enantioselectivities (82–97 % ee) and yields (61–99 %). The optical pure adducts could be smoothly converted to variously structured β2,2‐amino acid esters. Moreover, an interesting reaction model involving multiple hydrogen‐bonding interactions amongst the thiourea/tertiary amine catalyst and the reactants has been proposed based on the absolute configuration of the adduct and computational studies.
Synthesis and Characterisation of Molecular Bismuth Phosphorus Compounds Containing Bi2 Units with Bi–Bi Single and Double Bonds
Authors: von Hänisch Carsten , Nikolova Donna
Published: October 2006

The compound [BiP(SiPh2tBu)2]2 (1), featuring a Bi–Bi double bond and two Bi–P single bonds, has been obtained from thereaction of BiCl3 with the lithium phosphanide LiP(SitBuPh2)2.As a byproduct of this transmetallation/redox reaction the diphosphane P2(SitBuPh2)4 (2) has been isolated. This compound shows a remarkably short P–P bond due to π interactions of the phosphorus atoms. The reaction of the dilithium phosphandiide Li2PSitBuPh2 with BiCl3 yielded the bicyclic compound [Bi2(PSiPh2tBu)4] (3), exhibiting a Bi–Bi single bond. NMR studies of 3 show the availability of four different P atoms, as observed in the crystal structure. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2006)
