The C1–C9 and C10–C24 segments of the 24-membered polyene macrolide macrolactin S were synthesized by routes involving an epoxide-ring-opening reaction, an Ohira–Bestmann alkyne formation, a chelation-controlled nucleophilic addition reaction, and a Still–Gennari olefination as key steps. A chiron approach , starting from readily available glucose diacetonide, was used to synthesize a key intermediate, and a convergent approach was adopted for the synthesis of the key C10–C24 fragment.

Abstract This study describes the total synthesis of macaranin B, a naturally occurring ellagitannin containing 1-O-galloyl and 3,6-O-macaranoyl groups in an axial-rich D-glucose. The Key steps of the synthesis include an oxidative coupling reaction of galloyl groups with 1,2,4-orthoacetylglucose moiety and oxa-Michael addition/elimination using an orthoquinone monoketal. This facilitates the construction of the macaranoyl group and the first total synthesis of macaranin B.

AbstractA concise and convergent stereoselective synthesis of curvulone B is described. The synthesis utilized a tandem isomerization followed by C–O and C–C bond-forming reactions following Mukaiyama-type aldol conditions for the construction of the trans-2,6-disubstituted dihydropyran ring system as the key steps. Other important features of this synthesis are a cross-metathesis, epimerization, and Friedel–Crafts acylation.

A straightforward chiral pool synthesis for the first fluorinated calystegin is described. Key steps of this synthesis include an ultrasound-assisted Zn-mediated tandem ring opening reaction followed by a Grubbs’ catalyst-mediated ring closure metathesis reaction. The target compound is a selective and competitive inhibitor for a β -glycosidase.

We report the enantioselective total syntheses of mavacurans alkaloids, (+)-taberdivarine H, (+)-16-hydoxymethyl-pleiocarpamine, (+)-16-epi-pleiocarpamine, and their postulated biosynthetic precursor 16-formyl-pleiocarpamine. This family of monoterpene indole alkaloids is a target of choice since some of its members are subunits of intricate bisindole alkaloids such as bipleiophylline. Inspired by the biosynthetic hypothesis, we explored an oxidative coupling approach from the geissoschizine framework to form the N1-C16 bond. Quaternization of the aliphatic nitrogen was key to achieve the oxidative coupling induced by KHMDS/I<sub>2 </sub>since<sub> </sub>it hides the nucleophilicity of the aliphatic nitrogen and locks the required cis conformation.

Indole-fused tetracyclic ring systems containing nitrogen atoms are common core skeletons of many indole alkaloids such as sarpagine, macroline, and ajmaline. Efficient and stereoselective construction of these ring systems can promote the development of the corresponding alkaloid syntheses. In this article, we briefly summarize our current progress toward the application of the aza-Achmatowicz reaction and indole nucleophilic addition reaction cascade for the first asymmetric total synthesis of the macroline-type indole alkaloid (–)-Alstofolinine A. Our synthetic strategy is based on furan oxidation/rearrangement and proceeds from easily accessible materials such as indole and furan derivatives.
