The first enantioselective total syntheses of (–)-alstolucinces A, B, and F, (–)-echitamidine, and (–)-N-demethylalstogucine are reported. This article details the development of our first- and second-generation approaches toward the ABCE tetracyclic core of the strychnos alkaloids and the application thereof to the aforementioned targets. Key steps involve our sequential one-pot biscyclization method that constructs the C and E rings of the tetracyclic core and Rawal’s application of the intramolecular Heck reaction to secure the pentacyclic framework common amongst all targets.

Alkylation of the substituted cycloalkanones 14a–d and 30 with (Z)-1-bromo-4-methyl-3-trimethylstannyl-2-pentene (13) produced compounds 15a–d and 33, which were readily converted into the corresponding enol trifluoromethane-sulfonates (triflates) 16a–d and 34. Intramolecular Pd(O)-catalyzed coupling of the vinylstannane and enol triflate functions in 16a–d and 34 provided the dienes 17a–d and 35. The annulation product 35 served as a suitable starting material for the total syntheses of the dolastane diterpenoids (±)-(5S,12R,14S)-dolasta-1(15),7,9-trien-14-ol (2) and (±)-amijitrienol (3). The key steps of the synthesis of (±)-2 involved the stereoselective methylation of the ketone 44 (readily derived from 35) to provide 46 and the Barbier type ring closure of 47 to provide the target compound. For the synthesis of (±)-3, the notable conversions included the reductive transformation of the diene 35 into the alkene 53, the aldol condensation of the ketone 54 with 4-trimethylstannyl-4-pentenal (55), the chemo- and stereoselective reduction of the dione 58, and the one-pot conversion of the keto vinylstannane 63 into the triene 65, via the intermediate 64.

Abstract The combination of one-pot methodologies to asymmetric organocatalysis allow a green and direct access to many types of complex highly functionalized chiral products, including important key intermediates in total syntheses of important bioactive compounds. A series of chiral organocatalysts have already been successfully applied to such syntheses. This report collects major developments in the total synthesis of biologically active products based on the use of enantioselective organocatalytic domino/tandem reactions as key steps. It is divided into two parts dealing successively with reactions based on the use of proline-derived catalysts and other organocatalysts.
