The total synthesis of the naturally occurring fluorenone, dengibsinin (7a), and the azafluoranthene alkaloid, imeluteine (30e), is described. Using combined ortho metalation – cross coupling sequences that terminate in Friedel–Crafts (18b → 6d) and remote metalation (21a,b → 6c,d) reactions, the synthesis of fluorenone dimethyl ethers 6c and 6d is reported. 6c and 6d were shown not to be identical to dengibsinin dimethyl ether and dengibsin dimethyl ether, respectively, derived from the natural products. This work, together with synthetic and structural evidence from Sargent and Talapatra, led to the reassignment of structures for dengibsinin (7a) and dengibsin (7b). Using the metalation – cross coupling approach, the synthesis of the reassigned dengibsinin (7a) is presented. Two alternate unsuccessful approaches to imeluteine are briefly described (31 + 32 and 33 + 34). The successful approach incorporates the remote metalation – double cyclization, 43 → 44, as the key step.

<div>The first total synthesis of rhabdastrellic acid A, a highly cytotoxic isomalabaricane triterpenoid, has been accomplished in a linear sequence of 14 steps from commercial geranylacetone. The prominently strained <i>trans-syn-trans</i>-perhydrobenz[<i>e</i>]indene core characteristic of the isomalabaricanes is efficiently accessed in a selective manner for the first time through a rapid, complexity-generating sequence incorporating a reductive radical polyene cyclization, an unprecedented oxidative Rautenstrauch cycloisomerization, and umpolung 𝛼-substitution of a <i>p</i>-toluenesulfonylhydrazone with in situ reductive transposition. A late-stage cross-coupling in concert with a modular approach to polyunsaturated side chains renders this a general strategy for the synthesis of numerous family members of these synthetically challenging and hitherto inaccessible marine triterpenoids.</div>
