Strategies and tactics associated with the total synthesis of hybrid natural products are discussed. The target is ravidomycin (2), one of the gilvocarcin-class antitumor antibiotics with an aryl C-glycoside structure. The first total synthesis of 2, which was achieved along similar lines of that of gilvocarcin V (1), served for the determination of the relative as well as the absolute stereochemistry of 2. Also revealed was a limitation of the synthetic scheme so long as the amino sugar congener was concerned. A preliminary result is discussed on the [2+2+2] approach that relies on the ready availability of various benzocyclobutene derivatives via regioselective [2+2] cycloaddition of α-alkoxybenzynes and ketene silyl acetals.

: Dess–Martin periodinane (DMP), is a commercially available chemical, frequently being utilized as a mild oxidative agent for the selective oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols to their corresponding aldehydes and ketones, respectively. DMP shows several merits over other common oxidative agent such as chromium- and DMSO-based oxidants, thus it is habitually employed in the total synthesis of natural products. In this review, we try to underscore the applications of DMP as an effective oxidant in an appropriate step (steps) in the multistep total synthesis of natural products.

Symmetric organic compounds are generally obtained inexpensively, and therefore they can be attractive building blocks for the total synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and natural products. The drawback is that discriminating the identical functional groups in the symmetric compounds is difficult. Water is the most environmentally benign and inexpensive solvent. However, successful organic reactions in water are rather limited due to the hydrophobicity of organic compounds in general. Therefore, desymmetrization reactions in aqueous media are expected to offer versatile strategies for the synthesis of a variety of significant organic compounds. This review focuses on the recent progress of desymmetrization reactions of symmetric organic compounds in aqueous media without utilizing enzymes.
